    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 ...

    Highly unlikely there is such a thing as a drawing for a shipping box. Probable that the 1903 and M1icon used the same crate though. Keep in mind that it's just a box that we in the CF would call Class C stores. As in not returnable.
    Found this for the M1 on another forum.
    "18" wide, 49 1/2" long and 13 1/2" deep." "Cover is composed of 1 X 4's".
    Google shows a bunch of good pictures via a search for "M1 Rifle shipping crate".

    well I did find the blue prints here
    https://www.milsurps.com/showthread.php?t=20878
    page 72/73 problem is I cant get them to print with any clarity and seems any attempt to enlarge the image only makes matters worse.

    I dont have a shop or the time or space to cut/fit/check re cut. I can how ever when doing other projects around the house when I have all the tools out is cut several boards here and there and then finally assemble.
