    Whoever thought these clones would be very desirable decades later. Here's my No4 Mk1 Savage that was converted by a gunsmith.
    Amazingly this clone shoots more accurately than any of my No5s, go figure. Perhaps it's because of the heavier barrel and receiver.

    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 ...

    mag318,
    Nice carbine!

    Do you know how much yours weighs?

    Mine is down to 7lbs 9oz, almost 2lbs lighter then when I started.

    Good question so I just weighed it, 8 lbs 6 oz with the sling and unloaded magazine.

    Yep, I'm sure that's the reason. Also why it weighs more than mine.

    I'd like to find a babba'ed No.4 to make into a carbine... If the price was right...
