    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 ...

    Just a short note on the front sight , obviously missing a hood cover . But looking at the front sight recently with a magnifying lense , there is a small block you can pick out , and the front sight can flip down and up pops a shorter version of the front sight pictured , putting the little block back in locks the choice of sight in place . Different .

    Is the hole in the left side of the socket threaded? Would be around the right place for mounting plates for range sights on No1 Mk3 actions

    The serial number of 71L0611 Falls within the range of a batch of Sniper rifle conversions. So either a very expensive rifle has been attacked by Bubba, or somehow it was part of a project by LongBranch. Perhaps a rejected rifle from that serial block?
