    looking for a SA 1933 dated 1903 barrel shot out

    I am looking to locate a SA 1903 barrel that is dated 1933 that has been shot out. I need a good rear sight collar from that barrel to replace a damaged rear sight collar on my 1933 dated 03. Thank you

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.

    I didn't know the 1933's were any different from the rest of the later RSFB's. Are they? What is the difference since I onviously don't know?

    I say 1933 because

    After my collar was removed, my index pin was in the 11 o'clock position. Most collars have the pin in the 1 o'clock position. I just need a good collar with the index pin in the 11 o'clock postion when looking at the collar from behind, James

    Hello James,
    Your rear sight collar is a early 03 Remington with no grooves on the sides. Just about all 03 Rem collar have the index pin at the 11:00 postion.
