    Sorry Vince. If it's the vagaries of the DeLisle you're asking about, you need a Delisle expert! But just remember that while the base rim dia of the .45ACP is similar to the 7.62, it's SMALLER than the .303 - that the de-lisle action was designed for! So the smaller dia .45 case would need assistance in much the same way as the equally smaller dia 762 case does

    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 ...

    Have had cause to dig my other magazine pouch out of storage, so here's some pictures. Made by Martin Wright & Sons in 1974 and currently holding two commercial magazines.

    It's a darker green colour than my other 1960's dated one.

    God said "Let Newton be!" and all was light.

    So that's where we got the idea for our mag pouches. Too bad ours weren't exact copies, then they might have worked. Not sure about the material though. Mind, ours weren't better there...
