    T4 7.62 magazine

    I have two of these mags but the little piece of metal that is welded on the lip of the mag is missing on both. You can see where they were. So they are definitely the right ones.

    Does any one have the dimensions of the metal so I can see if i can fabricate some and the get them reattached.

    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 ...

    These were defective repros and were always failing. Brian at BDLicon had some and had them repaired. Ask him how he went about it. Or ask Fultons. They MUST have encountered them!

    Incidentally, you'd have got more responses if you'd just put this under the Lee Enfield part of the forum as they're really just repro L42 magazines - without the quality!

    Chubbs,
    Might be worth putting a want out on this site, someone is bound to have a couple to sell. Only reason I say that, is to fabricate and get the right angle could be a challenge once done. Buy the real deal, always saves a lot of time & tears in the long run IMHO
