    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.

    Rick, So I came across a 1903 Stock here are some pictures of it. How can you tell who its made by or if it for my year receiver? This stock is in good condition and I was thinking about getting it until I could save up the money for a 1903 Remington stock that I another member of the forum has and is willing to sell me.

    This stock as several makings: near the cut-off area there is a EJA or FJA oe maybe a symbol and JA; on the bottom near the front trigger guard screw hole it look like a "P" in a circle; on the right side near butt are two set of four number.

    Either a Remington M1903 or M1903A3 stock (can't make out in the one picture you posted if there are "slots" for the 03A3 handguard ring or not.

    Keep in mind that Frank J. Atwood (FJA) was not an inspector but the commander of the Rochester Ordnance District (which contained Remington).

    Rick Thanks again. Since this last post I was able to locate and buy an early Remington Stock with pins that doesn't have the cuts for the 03A3 handguard ring. Now just need to find the High Hump handguard and the rifle is complete. Thank you!

    I don't think your Remington would take a high hump hand guard.

    Usabaker is correct - Remington M1903s used a modified "high hump" handguard until the end of production.
