    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 ...

    Recoil plate fits like it's in a IR Type III replacement stock > Picture #6
    Fresh metal showing the R and R of a rear sight, on top and between the Dove tail base> Picture #8

    I'd call that 'Silly Money' spent for a IP receiver.

    That thing is wrong on so many levels! As they say, "a fool and his money are soon parted".
    When they tell you to behave, they always forget to specify whether to behave well or badly!

    You know, that was my first thought. But then I got to thinking that anybody who can afford to shell out $4,350 for something of which he/she has minimal, if any, real knowledge is probably not a complete fool. Maybe just so many more dollars than 'cents', or two bulls butting horns to win at any cost. It is kind of disgusting but I bet 'Jack' is a real happy camper.
