    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 ...

    First pic shows things have'nt changed much over the years.

    Leave your jeep parked on the street for five minutes unattended , and it's stripped almost bare.

    UTV before there was a UTV. The ergonomics seem a bit lacking but like you I would love to have one.

    There was an old film clip of a counter-sniper team using a .50 M2 from a rooftop in Santo Domingo. They see one and the sniper shoots a single shot... the spotter says, "About three feet low." The shooter adjusts and fires again... the spotter says, "Jesus, you took his head right off!" Very cool, would love to find it.
    Real men measure once and cut.
