    The short story of the supposedly 'lost' Browning is told in the Military Vehicle thread under 'revenge, extracted in full' Not so amusing at the time I hasten to add but time is a great healer..... But it spurred me on to read up and learn the ropes as they say. Always kept on top/ahead of the QM system after that

    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 ...

    Well here we are considerably further down the line and the rifle now belongs to me. Still no sign of the scope / bracket and tin but as you can see from the attached pics the number is definitely recorded as 26151.

    Cheers,

    Simon.

    Simon,
    Now the collecting begins
