    WTK: Enfield magazine with "S" marking ??

    I have a magazine that I just noticed has a broad S on the back spine and the follower of the magazine ? What does that stand for ? Any chance that it's for "Savage"
    If so, are those magazines worth more than others ??
    Thanks for any help in advance.

    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 ...

    Yes - its more than likely a Savage 'S'

    I wouldnt say its worth anymore than any other magazine unless someone with a Savage rifle has a mismatched magazine and wants a Savage magazine.
    Has it got a rifle serial number on the base ? - many of them do have. If it has it will probably be something like xxCxxxx - maybe, just maybe, the owner of that rifle would pay dearly for a serial number matched magazine.

    Thanks Alan,
    This magazine has no numbers on the bottom only the two small S marks as described earlier.
