    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.

    Here's a site you can hunt through, I'm guessing it's a rifle because you posted on M1 rifle threads... M1 Garand Born on Date

    I'm no expert, I'm just leaning myself but you can look up the date on USRifleCAL30M1.com is reads that the Winchester receiver serial number ser.no. 1364589 was manufactured in June of 1943, whats is the numbers on the barrel read?. You will need to look at all the drawing numbers on each part to determine if the all matching and correct this will make a difference in value.

    No one here can give you a value unless at minimum pictures are provided, good luck!
