Hope so, I asked him to take a look at it.

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.

Do not make any more cut, or alter in any way! Look closely at the wood stand, is there a ghost of a missing tag? Screw holes?
It was not made by bubba.
More to follow

Dan, in post 20 he mentions that it appears to have had a plate/plaque between the 2 spent cases.

Correct. It appears that it was an oval shaped plaque. Perhaps 3” by 1.5”.

On my mobile device it looked like two dowels in place of the cases. The cases did have bullet heads. one of them seems stuffed in the barrel stub

They look like M1 icon

Carbine cases on my computer. - Bob

Definitely cartridge cases.

Dan tells me the Carbine Collectors Club is aware of one other example like this one. More info to come!

That's awesome! I knew Dan would know if anybody would haha

Very cool, I collect cutaway instructional Firearms and that's excellent.

Has it been chromed or just stripped to the white?

I would probably carefully paint the parts black and red paint the cuts if it was mine.

That and a proper oil up...
