    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 ...

    Boy! they couldn't even align the letters properly.
    When they tell you to behave, they always forget to specify whether to behave well or badly!

    I'm not sure about the handguard, but that seller has lots of other items that appear authentic. I wish one of you guys would buy the pack of 30 round mags and let the rest of us know what the markings are on them. - Bob

    I agree Charlie ! Spacing, Font, and a few other things are not right. Seller might not know this however. Snowing I hear, gotta a guy from Pennsylvania staying in the house at the moment. Cheers, Mike.

    Bob,

    I believe those are 15 round mags not 30.

    I believe you are right. I think I can see the outlines of the mags in the 2nd picture. A bit of wishful thinking on my part! - Bob

    Here's a link to a similar pack (60's) that sold a few months ago:
