How can you get a magazine or clip for 1917 bsa co 303 lee enfield rifle?

E-gunparts is where I'd look. I have ordered Enfield parts from them before, so they do carry them. Are you looking for a magizine or clips? They ARE NOT the same. A clip is a cheap disposible piece of sheet metal the holds 5 rounds and is used to load or "charge" the magizine. The magazine.is the ammunation resevour. You have a Short, Magizine, Lee Enfiled, Mark III. Under the bolt handle, the stock socket is stamped "Sht M.L.E. III*" After 1926, the Brits called this rifle the No.1 rifle. BEWARE - the magizines of the No.1 and No.'s 4/5 rifles ARE NOT interchangaable.The clips,however will work in all of the Lees.
