Picked up this pretty nice early 'B' barrel Koishikawa Friday...curious about the number '103' right behind the rear sight. Never have seen this before.

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.

that number is a rack number stamped on the rifle when it was taken out of service and relegated to school and military academy use. The Koishikawa arsenal logo can still be seen on top of the ground mum. that was done when the rifle left military service.
