    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 ...

    Model U

    Yes, that's it, my cousin bought it. I'm trying to write it up for Man at Arms, but there's no info anywhere I can find. The grenade launcher does not go with that rifle. The little Attachment 58672flip-up scope is really neat.

    Good Eye

    His collection is mind-boggling. We learned very early that condition is everything, so it's all rare stuff that is mint. He bought the White rifles I wrote up in the Fall 2006 GCAicon Journal.

    Collections like that deserve to stay together as a testament to the collectors devotion to their preservation. Sadly that does not happen often.

    Collecting

    Well, I told my kids to just call Scott Duff and sell mine when I croak. No sentimentality about "Dad's guns," they only mean something to the one who collected them. Pass 'em on to others who will appreciate them, take the money and use it for something that lights YOU up.
