    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 thing that I can't work out about the rifle in the OP is how it fits in the case because, looking at the photo, it looks way too long. Did the "creator" of the "bespoke creation" incorporate a "detachable stock" or perhaps the stock is "side-ways-folding", à la M1A1icon Carbine?

    That looks a lot like an ATI side folder that they sell for shotguns. I have one for a Mini 30. I'd have no idea how he attached it to the Enfield without a stub of the butt stock.

    When I saw this one, I kind of thought some damned dirty ape army armorer from The Planet of The Apes got their stinking paws on this No 5.
