    Mystery series marking.

    Posted pics of my recently acquired Type 38 the other day, it bears this series symbol. Couldn't get a clear shot of it, so here's a drawing of it. Can't find it on any of the sites. Can anyone shed any light on it?

    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.

    Your drawing resembles the series 20 or 27 mark. Can't you take a better picture? Are you sure you drawing is correct?

    Drawing is correct, and I do believe it may be series 20.
