    Milled 'guards

    Would anyone here consider me strange if I admitted I've got a thing for the milled trigger guards?



    I hope not. I just like 'em, that's all.

    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.

    It's a borrowed pic. I don't even own one yet. I just like they way they "grok."

    I too really like the Milled guards better. The stamped ones look nek-ked to me.

    Besides, a tight fitting guard can be opened by putting a screwdriver, or similar, into the hole and opening it with ease.

    They are usually easy to find.
