    SMLE Photo help

    Does anyone have a BSA or Sparkbrook SMLE Mk I action that has not been upgraded. I need a photo of the receiver markings.

    Thanks!

    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.

    I'm afraid I'm photographically challenged Lance, but if you can use these pictures feel free to do so. I found this body in my body 'tat' box. They were taken rather hurriedly, but I can try & get something better if you let me know.
