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.

There were thousands of companies making parts for carbine production. Not all have yet been identified but as a rule of thumb if a part has the letter I on it with another letter it most often was made for Inland. An example would be a type 3 barrel band. If made for Inland it would be marked AI,KI or SI. hth

Atlas was a mistake I made about 10 years ago. I mixed it up with another contractor. The mistake was printed in the Carbine Club News Letter.

The actual contractor was Apex Metal Stampings, of Brooklyn, NY.

I am to blame for the misinformation. I appologize for the mistake.
