    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 ...

    Wow, nice to see they can still be found, if only importing was easier.

    I noticed the case is marked "No. 1" as if to imply there may be more to come.

    Also, I wonder who the seller is? The location is marked as "New York."

    I find the dual Frenchicon/Flemish markings intriguing. Did the box go to Belgium and return or was scheduled to but didn't make it?

    First time I wish I lived in the the US. What a find and I doubt there's more as the crate #1 was probably from the original shipment to Belgiumicon. The price is cheap considering, just unfortunate they are in the US and I am in Canadaicon. Now if Brian Dickicon was the seller knowing his reputation I would be tempted to try work thru the importation process.
    Why use a 50 pound bomb when a 500 pound bomb will do?

    Wow...that's amazing. It would be an outrage if the buyer were to break up the set.

    And those postwar Long Branch rifles are just beautiful.

    Look at what the seller is also selling - marked as an L39A1, of all things...that'll put a cat amongst the pigeons...
