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.

Never heard of M43 called "7.62 Soviet". "7.62 Russian" used to exclusively mean x54R but with all the SKS's and VZ's in the country now, it's not as sure an identification.

7.62 Tokarev I believe.

I've seen 7.62x39 dies marked 7.62 Russian icon

Short. The overall length of the die may give a clue. You could always poke a pencil up inside and see how far up the shoulder is.

The pistol cartridge used by the Tokarev and CZ52 pistols, as well as a number of submachineguns.

7.62x54 r the r stands for rimmed.

The funny thing is I have dies for the 7.62X54R, 7.62X39, 7.62 Nagant, and just ordered a CZ-52 so I will need to get a set of 7.62X25.

Confusing, isn't it?

Perhaps a bit more information is needed. Who made the dies? Are there any other markings on them? Did they come in a box with the makers name, or any loading information with them? Look on the top of the dies, and on the sides for any stampings.

Take a vernier caliper and measure the inside of the hole at the bottom of the sizing die -- that's the one with the decapping pin. Give us some better information, and someone will help you.
