    Wow, new2brass you really know your stuff sir. I looked closely and yes now that I know what to look for it does say JLB in the sling well. Under the small lug we have a .U. and yes, there is a line on the recoil plate. It is almost easier to feel it than to see it but it does look cast now that you point it out. I can see a small "P" on the front sight. So is all this in keeping with the Augusta Arsenal rebuild or did this all happen later? Oh, I also added a photo of the slide mark which was left out of the original batch I think.

    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 ...

    Yes, the slide is 'Packard for Inland'.
    'Really Senior Member' Especially since I started on the original Culver forum. That had to be about 1998.
