    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 ...

    Most of the current fake stocks have the "Made in Canadaicon" and SAL 1944/45 markings.

    Many real stocks do not have either the "SAL" or "MiC" of markings either.

    Like yours, I have seen a number of original stocks without the "made In Canada" stamping, and sometimes when it is present it's location can differ as well.

    None of the fake stocks have the oval inspectors marking shown in your first picture.

    ...yet...

    I have four of them in my collection. Yours is correct and original. Only thing that is missing is the Canvas belt attachment loop.
    I have several of the loops for sale and one stock as well. ALL original.
    Thanks

    Amazing condition, I would assume many of these were un-issued?

    None of the repro's I have seen have had the flannel patch at the muzzle end inside of the stock holster.
    The first repro's were a bit rough but they have gotten better and none have had the oval inspectors mark....so far.
    The quality of the wood, metal work and the rivets is also a clue.
    The nice red hue of the walnut is hard to reproduce with stain as is the quality of the inletting.
    It sure looks kosher to me....

    Matter of fact, many were used as firewood at CAL...wouldn't they burn nice?

    I've now seen several repro's with the felt in the bottom of the stock.

    A friend who grew up in Sask during the war said that he burnt large quantities of unfinished BHP stocks.
