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.

Do a search for "Sticky Bolts" and you should find your answer and possible fix. Fairly common with Mosin Nagants, common causes are laquered ammo, dirty chamber, minor mechanical issue.

Mosin. M-O-S-I-N.

They seem hard to open by nature. Don't worry about it, get used to it.

Just had a look at a few standard Mosin bolts- the distance (lever arm) from center of bolt to mid knob is only 1.9inch. An M1917 Enfield, in comparison, is 2.5inch, making for much easier bolt opening. My PU sniper with its longer bolt feels much lighter.
