    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 ...

    Is it possible to do a few comparison shots between an AK and the 7.62x39 round and the StG?

    Courtesy of drm2m, here is the comparison pic....

    7.92x33mm Kurz cartridge is the fourth from the left.
    .30 M1icon Carbine cartridge is third from the left.
    7.62mm AK47 cartridge is fifth from the left.

    What's the one on the far right, beside the 5.45x39mm?

    Edit:
    L to R, it looks to me like:

    6.5x55mm, 7.62 NATO, .30 Carbine, 7.92x33mm, 7.62x39mm, 7.62x45mm, ???, 5.56x45mm, 5.45x39mm. ???

    Question about front sling swivel(s)

    My MP44 has a right and a left sling swivel attached to the gas block now according to the sturmgewehr book they experimented with the idea on an MP43 but no documents have been found .the swivel on mine looks original as it's the same finish as the rest of the rifle ... maybe someone else has the seen the same thing .the rifle is not a RC or VOL-POL .I am just curious I don't think I have some sort of one off like in the book .
