    1903 Springfield, NM?

    Last weekend I looked at a 1903 at auction, SN 1198951. The bolt was unmarked except for J6, and in the white with a headless cocking piece as I recall, and in an unproofed DAL stock. I remember looking at the rails and they did not appear to be polished. Don't remember any barrel markings. Is it possible that the rifle was an early NM? Any SRS hit? Thanks, Frank

    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.

    The rifle is not listed on SRS. It may just be a "gussied up" service rifle.
