    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.

    Nooooooooooooooo Tankie. You've got to get your memory cells working! It was MLKing who stood on the steps of somewhere in about 1968 and declared to all who were listening '.........I HAVE A DREAM..............

    Only I can imagine him declaring to all '...........I HAVE A TRIPOD...........' Oh, never mind, it's early on a Sunday morning........

    Well, to be fair Brian, he might have had a tripod AND a dream! You all have a nice rest of the day!

    Splendid. I'm glad it wasn't just me.
    Nature and nature's laws lay hid in night;
    God said "Let Newton be!" and all was light.

    If any of you gentlemen have an extra pivot for a tripod or a source?
    Or have some measurements or drawings so I can have one manufactured.
    I have an Inglis MkII, extra barrels, a tripod, and am missing that one piece.

    Yes Kevin, those are the parts I am looking for.
    I didn't realize there were that many parts to the pivot assembly.

    OK ,I have sorted my tripod bits out.



    Putting aside the parts I need to make up the 3 tripods frames I have some of the bits you need.I have a spare tripod head and the keyed flat locking washer.I do not have a spare spring washer (which should not be to much of a problem) or the set screw which you would have to make.I can give you sizes and drawings/pics for this if this will help ?



    Have plenty of new T&E's ,traverse stops (MKI and 2) and quadrants though
