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.

Looks good Frank, but I don't know which one it would be for.

**imntxs554** · 09-08-2015 08:02 PM

Thanks Jim. I was going to go through the books later to check for myself.

Square S would be correct on Winchester, early Underwood, Standard Products, maybe others.

**imntxs554** · 09-08-2015 09:07 PM

I did find some info in the Books, but found that 2 more Carbines used it in a '09 post.

"The square S sight was not only used by Winchester but several others too.
It was also used by Underwood,Saginaw Steering Gear and Standard Products too".

Well, now that I will be starting my .223 Shorty build soon , I guess in a drawer it goes hoping I don't lose it. I'm Still looking for one for a NPM.

I think I would send it back and get your money back if you can. While the square S stamped sight was used by a number of makers it was the predominate sight used by Winchester.

**imntxs554** · 09-09-2015 12:31 AM

Thanks Bruce, I'll give it some serious thought.

Frank, this one is GTG!

**imntxs554** · 09-11-2015 08:33 PM

Thanks Bill, after all you saved me quite a bit of Money and Jim (Bar) also told me the same thing you did. You know that guy is still sending me emails.

That's because he still wants your money...
