    All I did with all my 303's apart from the 1921 Lithgowicon (Which is a safe queen) is carefully and I stress carefully polish the flat & tip of the sear then the same to the "nose" of the cocking piece then the nodes on the trigger as well as polish the retaining pins for the trigger & sear this is done with a small hand held super el' cheapo dremel (as I am really cheap) from Bunnings that stops cold when any type of pressure is put on it took a while to do them, no angles were changed or hard facing, I now have buttery smooth 1st pull & let off.

    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 ...

    Well you're more cultured than me Ron. At least you call the two little bumps on the trigger 'nodes'; I call them ''tXXs'! Mind you, I was dragged up.........

    I was trying to be politically correct as not wanting to state the obvious other than saying nixxles.
    Nodes just sprang to mind..........
