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.

Yes. I have seen many pics from the Korean war where they used them.

Were these 30rd magazine pouches replaced during the 1950's ? or were they still in use in Viet Nam ?

I had a 4 mag pouch in 1968, but I don't recall how it was marked.

There was one contract, maybe two, during the Vietnam War for 30 round pouches. The modified US GI 15 round pouches came in from South Korea and I have never seen any in the US inventory.

The first pouch was produced in 1945 with no maker markings.
