    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.

Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...

    I don't see a Lee-Enfield in there. Ownership of at least one is mandatory to be a member here.

    I noticed the "Eastern" theme.

    Are those 2 AG42b's in the left corner?

    you are the second person to have thought they were Ljungmans. but actually they are both german g/k43s. the leftmost is a Walther ac44 G43 with a repro stock. its my shooter.

    the right one is a BLM qve45 K43. it's all matching and a safe queen.

    please don't my wife how much$ these are. she thinks everything is $99 from Big5.

    Ah, in that case, I hate you too.

    Very nice rifles. Would you consider doing a pic montage for the Library on the qve45?

    wow, thanks for asking. but i'm hardly an expert on the g/k43s. i am learning and have read 'Hitler's Garands' twice! i be happy to do it, but i think some of the guys from the gk forum would be a better reference.

    Hello and Welcome.

    That looks like a nice Finn M39 tucked away in the back right corner of the safe..........I hope it's not a safe queen.

    That looks like an exceptional example and we'd love to have it as part of the Library. Thanks for being willing to do it.
