    The oval hole is for the 1927 semi auto Auto Ord or Numrich guns, they fire from a closed bolt and differ completely inside from GI. They were standard mags hogged up so you had to use those, you couldn't just grab mags and take them to a gunfight and win. The drum still fit but there aren't many of those except those of us serious enough to have examples.

    Honestly? I'd only go about $20 USD on that one. It's a well worn mag...

    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 ...

    aside for this 20rd he has the following that are marked 3) SWCO, 4) Seymour Products 1) Auto Ord (appears to be a early version, he thought WWII era, 1) Sealed that is wrapped in VCI with barley readable writing. Can you recommend a source to get a fair vale?
