    Smith Corona Meets Deer

    I thought you might appreciate a picture from my hunt this morning. I harvested my first deer ever this morning with none other than my trusty Smith Corona.

    Not a very big buck, only 5 points, but I sure am excited!

    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.

    Harvested? I killed the crap out of mine. Just kidding. Nice going. Looks like a perfect place to hunt. That is illegal here (standing corn). You have to put it on the ground, as though the deer know the difference.

    Nice deer.

    OT:

    Jim, better check your reg digest. No law against hunting in standing corn/crops. You may be missing out on a lot of hunting!
