    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.

    Can I asked is there insurance for the items by the handler as that is pretty sad to have two firearms damaged in such a way.

    Easy repair using the correct WOOD glue, clamped for 24 hours. Next day, strengthen by using 2 turned oak dowels along the line of the break, glued and knocked in. Will last another lifetime. Done loads of them.

    Carcano has a sporterized stock so not much good for parts anyway. Looks like a Type I that is missing it's floor plate. Not Italianicon but Japaneseicon. Italian made. Parts are more valuable if that's what it is.

    I also see what appears to be the standard Japanese split stock.

    Were there tire tracks on the exterior of the box? I would like to know who the shipping company was if you care to divulge . Even if they were not properly packaged that damage seems extreme.

    Sticking with the Type I theory. Looks like the took the rear sight off the barrel and tapped it for a civilian peep type sight. Not worth restoring, too costly plus the drilled hole in the receiver for the sight.

    Caliber is 6.5 Arisakaicon, not 6.5 Carcano.

    Very few if any parts are interchangeable with the Italianicon versions. Bolts are different, close but they don't fit.

    Reminds me of the Sampsonite luggage commercial with the Gorillia baggage handler.
