    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.

    I cant find a COJ manufacturer code. Can you get a photo of the marking? It would help others to research it for you and your friend.

    Lousey photo but I'm pretty sure what appears to be "COJ" is really a poorly struck dou, the wartime code for the Waffenwerk Bruenn AG factory in occupied Czechoslovakiaicon.

    Correct on both counts . Was talking with some folks on CMPicon forum and came to believe the stamp used was worn pretty bad and what looked like "c" "o" "j" is really "d" "o" "u" .
