    Marking on a 37 riot

    Can anyone post a picture of the markings on a 1942 riot Ithaca 37. I’m thinking about buying one and would like to see what the markings look like thanks.

    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 ...

    Interesting, that sale has a 1905 bayonet instead of a 1917 bayonet. Wonder if it fits? Was fitted?

    These riot guns all fall into a very tight serial number range. Unlike the WW2 Ithaca trench guns and long barrel guns, the shipping records for these riot guns have never been found.
