    Charlie Painter

    I occasionally check the M1icon Carbine site to see what's new. I have not seen any postings by Painter777 in months. Has anyone heard from him?

    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 have been wondering about him too. I saw a pretty Carbine stock in a local gun shop and it made me think of him. I hope everything is OK. Didn't he have some health issues a year or two ago???

    He does have heath issues plus it's one of the busy times of the year for his business. At one point I think he was also taking care of his wife as she had also been sick.
