    Something new for the day. This is a 5" barrel, 9mm platform with the three lug barrel. Came with lots of extras... Cerro forge upper and lower. Old EOTEC I had lying around...where were these 30 or 40 years ago when we wanted them?

    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.

    Would that be a good house clearing arrangement Jim, the muzzle flash would be a bit large would it not! though you would probably choose to utilize sub sonic ammo and a suppressor......

    So is that built on a "pistol" lower or a "rifle" lower? I guess the difference is between 5 and 10.

    Well more importantly are the magazines a pistol piece I guess?

    The lower is of no real consequence here...except it sort of is. It's a rifle lower but a pistol upper. The mags are pistol tens so they're legit and the long ones are blocked to five. The drum is gone already...to recoup costs. It's a trinket anyway. So this upper lives alone for now until I have a dedicated lower, and that will look the same. It's a five inch barrel and that doesn't really flash or bark any more than a Browning Hi Power or a Colt in 9MM. Remember it's 9MM not 5.56...

    You can have all the uppers you want in all the variations you want and can use them in shifts with the lower. All mags marked for pistol can be used in 10 rds and you're safe, others like 50 Beowulfe can be used with however many rds they hold and as long as you don't alter them you're safe... That part is a bit much for me though.

    The lower is registered as a lower only.
    Regards, Jim
