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.

Frank,

My K31 icon

has a small 1/4" v chip at the very end of the beech stock by the stacking lug. I had glued in the piece but it did not hold. What is your favorite glue for these projects?

Hi Dave, what glue did you use?

**jimb16** · 08-10-2016 11:47 AM

My guess is that he cut the chipped area square then glued in a block and clamped it using Gorilla Glue. Afterward it is shaped using a fine wood rasp then final sanded and oiled/stained to match. That is how I do mine.
