    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 ...

    Pistol grips and rapid fire bolt rifles just don't go together. So the red dot is not required. That ought to get the price down about $90 or so...

    Poor fellow must long for an AR15. If you almost close your eyes, then squint, from 300 meters they look......nothing alike.

    Yes, I saw this on another forum, too...

    I do not mean to be gross, but every time I go to the restroom I do something can be described as a "custom made 1 off kind unit" - and that should give you an idea of my opinion of this rifle.

    I've looked and looked but I can't find any reference to this very rare rifle in Skennertonicon's "The Lee Enfield"
