    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 ...

    We will need the complete serial number to check the records. Only about 5% of serial numbers are in the SRS records.

    'farmfriend':

    Closest listed SRS numbers (to #103384) are model 1896 rifles, 50 below and 24 above yours.

    The stamping on your receiver has to be model 1896 and not model 1898. Sometimes, "1896" is stamped deep and gets misread as "98". The receiver area 'cut' for the bolt handle is very different on the two actions. Model 1898 rifles started around #109000, in June, 1898.

    Your Kragicon was manufactured around April to June, 1898.

    attached: photos of 1896 and 1898 actions.
