    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.

Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...

    A4 Bolt

    The seller has now posted that he has conflicting information regarding authenticity and offered to allow bid retraction. Got to appreciate his attempt to set things straight.

    Internet thievery

    Sure seems like the selling morals of our society are getting very low. Glad ebay seller has changed his tune. There was a guy on the M14icon forum that had "new, unissued rare oprods". He got raked over the coals by those that knew what to look for. Two days ago, same WTS popped up on the AR15.com. He got busted there too.
