    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 ...

    Hi, my Lithgowicon is a MA 1945 receiver SN: F 37427 with a 3/52 "H" barrel with MA over VI and four stars stamped on it . It has the crown over LP in flags on both the barrel and the receiver. It came with two bolts, one has v11755 on it and the other bolt has no number and appears to have never had one, there is no sign of it having been ground off. The butt is dated 1945 and there are no markings on the lower fore wood and there is no cutout for the rear sight protector, the upper front fore wood only goes from the barrel band to the nose piece. The rear upper wood was one piece went from the receiver to the barrel band and is held on by the standard spring clip and the barrel band. It had no cutout for a sight but is broken beyond repair, I plan to make a new one at some stage. The rifle has a Lane peep sight fitted to it.

    Hi there muffett. Not sure if you're still collecting this data but here's a couple more.

    1945 Lithgowicon (still like new, best rifle in my collection)
    Serial F39419 (serial number puts it near end of war production rifles)
    Barrel date 4/45
    Forend is SLAZ 45 marked however they fitted a SLAZ 42 marked standard length butt.

    Lithgow 1944
    Serial E94678
    FTR 1950
    Barrel is 1942 Britishicon made but also has Lithgow markings.
    Forend is numbered to rifle and marked SLAZ 50.
