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.

I believe these are normal production barrels selected as Guage because they represent either upper or lower limits to tolerances and would have been used to test the fit to the gun. I've never been involved in Bren servicing but I have serviced many Mauser cannon and we had a guage barrel which was the first 18" or so of a standard barrel to test fit in the guns.

This very subject has been aired on this forum a year or so ago. Suggest that you read up on it to save the whole rigmarole of going through it yet again..............
