    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 ...

    Only place in Canadaicon where there <may> be one would be at the war museum in Ottawa .... IIRC there were only about a dozen or so of these things made as prototypes.

    That's right! Maybe the small arms museum in Warminster, but I'll bet NO ONE's about to unhand one. I think there's one in the Citadel Hill museum in Halifax NS???

    If the regimental budget allows... Be prepared to heve deep pockets for it! AND if you get it, we need extensive pics! Good luck on this one.

    I assume this is a DEWAT?

    That converts to about $450 (Cdn) today....

    Although I don't know anything about these, for a rare prototype, isn't that a real "steal"?

    Am I missing something?

    Regards,

    300 pounds of gold or 300 Britishicon Pounds ?

    Either way it would be a good deal, even as a DEWAT considering how rare it is.
