The 'TR' is neatly lined through on mine, yet it bears the D6E examiner's mark - so I guess there's another anomaly to throw into the melting pot!

    So does mine Roger. One examiner's mark on either side of the bolt way. It also has "S" on the cutoff block, does yours? The TR stamps were later struck through, but are still clearly visible.

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping. Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction).

    Sounds like ours are pretty much identical. It came to me years ago from where I can no longer remember, & it has been in the 'when I get round to it' pile for that long too! I suppose now I've little excuse, so I must assemble it into a complete rifle; it is worthy of a place in the rifle rack in its own right, I guess??
