    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 ...

    That’s a rarity in itself! To my understanding, far more of the Trials rifles were converted than not. Very cool!

    Does it have a light alloy buttplate and a sling swivel on the guard?

    That and the backsight clearance milled out for the plunger as per production No4's are the hallmarks of the Model C trials.

    I had one at one time, A1959 IIRC.

    I own A1424 with scope 3193 on the wrist, and A0733 with scope 3288 on the wrist.

    Interestingly, I also own an early Savage 4t OC1862 with an earlier scope 1766 on the wrist.

    Now that is interesting, as it suggest some Savage rifles were converted at Enfield.

    Mine's been fitted with a few new parts and furniture, but the pads look good.

    I've had it for five or six years, and still haven't looked for a magazine. Can't tell you why!
