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.

Not a priority at the moment but sometime..."maybe". I'm happy with it time being anyway.

What are the thoughts on a repro M1907 leather sling as compared to the repro WWII cotton web...? One of those things where I can't decide. The leather 1907 is more desirable I guess - problem is for some odd reason I sold one I had on eBay a few months ago...don't recall why, I have no clue.

edit: looks like the original photos on the web indicate a cotton web style so that's what I'll continue with for now.

It looks like the canvas sling will be just fine...thanks!
