    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 ...

    Are you going to make a project of it or move it on, be interesting to see how it scrubs up but firing the thing may not be on the menu.

    If you could get that rear trigger-guard screw in "the wrong way", there is something seriously wrong with the threads on the screw, the receiver, or both.

    If it ONLY fits that way, there is DEFINITELY something fishy about the receiver. If it fits either way and the screw simply drops in, the threads are seriously defective.

    If you ever were to fire the thing I would use a mild load tie it to a tree and remote fire with a piece of stout cord, just in case it grenades.........8(
