    New type 99?

    I just picked this up for 190.00 at a yard sale. bore looks good, no major cracks or problems with stock, what do you all think? Also it doesn't look like it had a mum, no grind marks that i can see.

    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.

    Nice to see some new photos on here. Rifle looks good, seems like a fair price. Might be missing the dust cover and monopod but could be a transitional one that never had either.

    The mum was probably expertly removed to leave a nice receiver post war. I've seen them like that before. It it was lightly stamped to begin with, not that hard to do.

    Grimm, Yes I agree with Aragorn-- the Mum was removed and the receiver ring nicely cleaned up. Looks good and kudos on the matching numbers and staked screws. Price seems like a good bargain. Salt Flat
