    handgaurd question

    were the handgaurds the same on rifle vs. carbine (assuming 1901 sights)? In other words, will this one work on my rifle with 1901 sights? They only have the one picture. Looks like a 1901 compared to the original I have.

    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.

    looks like the handgaurd for 1901 sights was the same on rifle and carbine.
