    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 ...

    The scope needs to be installed correctly. Obviously done post military service.

    Do you mean it should be moved forward till the adjustment knobs are in front of the front ring? Taking a measurement in the second picture shows this would put the rear ring over top of the threads. I've seen pictures of originals in this kind of configuration - on my own repro with redfield base and split top rings, with repro scope, I can't get it to work. not enough clearance for the locknut. If someone has an original, I'd be curious to see some measurements if this is indeed how this scope was mounted.
