Very nice m, strangely I would be more excited by once with a Mk1 or 2 No.32 as I have a couple of Mk3s. £3K is outside my budget for non matching rifles, but it does depend how far non matching extends

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.

Hi Sorry to be thick but how do i see where it was made

**Gil Boyd** · 02-23-2020 08:01 AM

A letter and number will be evident on the wrist with the serial number beside it. Let us know what it says and we'll give you the answer in the absence of any photos!

The markings will tell you. Left side of the butt socket, if it has M47C stamped above the serial number, it was made at BSA Shirley, as most last war 4T's were. If its not M47C marked, its likely a Maltby made, unless it happens to be a Canadian icon

4T of course, or an early trials conversion.

As said, get some detailed photos posted or email to someone that can post them for you.

Manufacturer's mark or name will be either on the left hand side of the butt socket or on the left hand side of the action around the mounts for the scope.

Typical 'names' to look for would be

F (or ROF F)
M47C
M (or ROF M)
or a Serial number containing an L or a C (similar to 25C12345, or 10L3456)

My M47c (BSA) No4T

Hi All , this is wonderful ,joining a forum with so many helpful and knowledgeable people. she has m47/c 1943 stamped on wrist. a little background on why i wanted a no4t .i used to shoot enfields in the school CCF. in 1969 at the age of 15 a Mr Morrison used to advertise these rifles for £18 10shillings in the guns review magazine . i had spent all summer working hard on the farm earning 1/9dper hour and had saved that amount up ,but my dad wouldn't buy it for me and put it on his FAC. next came college, work, wife, kids ,till eventually i managed to buy one
i used to shoot it quite a lot never at long range in fact my closet shot was a roebuck at 18yds.
thanks again
