    Japanese collector website reborn

    Hi, I'm the former admin/owner of the Japaneseicon collector website. I had to shut the site down awhile back due to lack of participation and interest from our membership there. I am currently in the process of starting the site up again and would like to let the members here know if this. I would also like to pick up our tradition of a shooting match once I can find a suitable range that will host the event. The website was home to many photos and reference materials that myself and others authored and posted to the site to help collectors see and examine legit and honest examples of many rare and common items alike. It was founded as a group dedicated to the study of these items and to help all collectors out with current and future purchases/additions to their collection.

    I should have it up and running soon and this will also include a mobile version of the website you can access from your smartphone or tablet in case you need to use our photo library and research info on the site while at a gun show, etc. I hope that this site will gain many more members and with that, more and more texts and pictures!

    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 ...

    I like Jap stuff Myself. And I have an Arisakaicon Rifle, A Nambu Type 14 Pistol, lot's of Medals & Officers swords in my collection.
    Sadly, the only way we can own any Firearms here in the UKicon. Is in a Deactivated form. Unless they are Bolt action rifles!....
    I look forward to viewing this site/ facility. Please do keep us all updated.
    Many Thanks.

    Everything was archived and is currently displayed on the site. I have been out of town for awhile and have been slowly adding more things to the site

    Which site is this? I have long had an interest in the Japaneseicon side of the war.
