    At least it's safe even though it's butchered. The firing pin doesn't protrude enough to hit the primer if I read #6 correctly!

    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 ...

    |But it AIN'T safe Brian......... You cannot apply the safety until you withdraw the cocking piece slightly. That immediately categorizes it as X-UF or a Unit repair (the X) and unfit to fire (the UF).

    IIRC the DCRA minimum trigger pull for the SR(b) was three pounds.

    Sorry Peter. My comment was a bit "tongue in cheek", not MoD spec. The safety is pretty much irrelevant if the the firing pin has no protrusion when decocked.
