The Short Magazine Lee-Enfield (SMLE) rifle was introduced in 1907 and became the primary firearm of the British Empire and Commonwealth armies during the First World War. Designed by Scottish-American gun designer James Paris Lee, the SMLE was a bolt-action rifle that utilized the Lee-Enfield magazine system, which allowed for fast and reliable loading and firing of cartridges.

The SMLE went through several modifications and improvements over the years, including the introduction of a bayonet and the use of different materials in the stock and receiver. It was used extensively in both world wars, as well as in various colonial conflicts, and remained in service with some Commonwealth countries until the 1960s.

The SMLE earned a reputation for reliability and accuracy and was widely regarded as one of the best military rifles of its time. It also played a significant role in the development of modern firearms, influencing the design of many subsequent bolt-action rifles. Today, the SMLE is highly prized by collectors and enthusiasts of military firearms, and its legacy continues to be felt in the world of small arms technology.
