    Question

    Could be? Where are you? I live out the back gate of Ft Carson.
    Never been to Montanna, to far to go to a shoot.

    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 ...

    That's a good one. You should be able to shoot just about anything there. The smaller shoot I'd like to have is not off the table. It'll be next year if it comes to pass.

    Hello Brian,
    Hopefully we will still be in the running for another visit to the USAicon next year and may see you then.

    Well We Made It

    Am not long back from the Big Sandy Machine Gun Shoot where we had a great time. I can only thank Kenton Tucker and Ed Hope of mgshooters.com for all their help both in arranging the guns and ammo and on the day. It's been a long time since I fired a Bren and the lewis and Vickers were a first for me as was the Boys Anti tank Rifle! Unfortunately my 'friends' got too excited about their own shooting to take any decent pics of me shooting!

    If any of you were there I was the one wandering around in the Scottish Historic Machine Gun Team T shirt.
