    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).

    This seems to be a long-standing interest of yours? I don't think you are going to find any such photos, but there isn't really any need for them: a standard 3/8 Winchester/Lyman dovetail block at the rear, and the same at the front with a "flat bar" extension added, or a dovetail block machined with such a riser as one piece. Screw and solder down and there you are. Of course if you want the graduations on the adjustments to have their full range of travel, you'll need to collimate the bases and rings with the appropriate degree of declination. If you buy the reprint of the factory brochure on the A5 it gives more details.

    If you want a tip on how to collimate the rings to the bore, my advice would be to pick up a surplus bore sight scope and adapt that into the rings with suitable spacers.
