    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.

    It looks like my image wont work. However I will try my best to explain what I got. My SKS does not have any triangle by the serial number nor does it have any Chinese symbols. it does appear to have HALF a triangle. It got 2 sides of the triangle, and looks like they were just barely about to make the 3rd side of the triangle. but this is almost a little over an inch to the left of the serial number. My number is 11454. All matching numbers.

    China did make some "cleanskin" SKS for ( covert) export, usually with the Marking "M22" or similar, and a Non-year related Serial Number. They are usually of the Early construction design ( full wood stocks, all Milled construction, screwed-in Barrels (not Pinned) and most with early (Ruski style) Blade Bayonets. And usually they are in "Worn" Condition.

    Some good accessible Photos would be appreciated.
