    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.

    Jim, Thanks for posting the photo, I took this photo some years ago from a Rock Island Shop Manual dated 1943. Do not know if there is a drawing with dimensions available after all these years.

    Sorry to step on your toes with the pic, I couldn't remember where I found it, I just saved it because I have the rifle and seal. Makes sense that it came from you...no one else has this stuff. You probably have the tool too...
    Regards, Jim
