    My no.4 has a 5.5 lb. pull with a 3 lb. first stage and my no.1 is 5 lbs. with a 2 lb. first stage. The triggers on both Enfield's brake very cleanly as does the Mauser They both have a fair amount of over travel that the Mauser doesn't. I think that is the difference more than the pull weight it self

    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). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...

    Not universally, but definitely on range/target rifles, sniper rifles and volunteer club rifles, i.e. all applications requiring above-average precision. There are several photos in "The Crown Jewels"
