    L42A1 Mount IWS L5A1

    I bought the L42A1 Sniper Rifle IWS Scope Mount Bracket exact replica made in Canadaicon and as far I see now it fits perfect for my rifle.
    Was the IWS Mount L5A1 numbered to the specific rifle?

    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.

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

    They have been numbered but by default as there was no requirement to number them. A bit like the magazines really. Some are, some ain't
