    Gun show report

    Went to the gun show at the Fredericksburg Expo Center today. The crowds were back to pre-Obama levels, and this was about noon or so. Lotsa powder, some brass, NO LEAD BULLETS that I could find, and NO PRIMERS either.
    There were lots of pricey Garands and a few pricey 03A3's. The only carbine I saw was a National Postal Meter for $550, possibly the best deal in the house. It looked pretty good from what I could tell, but I didn't bring my bore light or muzzle wear gauge to check further.

    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 ...

    No jerky either. I was shocked and amazed. A number of tables had not been rented, BTW.
