    No1 Mk V, up and running...

    If anyone remembers this below, it is now up and running but in .30M1 Carbine, the whole rebuild is in a Sticky in the restorers corner.

    Its first test run went well but with a few tweeks and another yesterday it was punching the paper at 50m with a nice group, just a rear sight to go, one I,m making and have had a very generous offer for an original one from a forum member, a big thanks to him.

    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 ...

    Thanks Roger, Not one for the purist, but a cheap budget build and will add the original parts when they come my way.

    (anyone in the UKicon with any old 7.62 barrels off target rifles they are looking to shift, PM me)
