    "Mud Hill" Mac

    Folks, this is my dear friend Mac McCluskey. He is truly an amazing man. I will not state Mac's age but let's just say he's been around the Horn more than once This is his stock WWII jeep Mud Hill. This would be a feat for a man a forth his age. Okay, he's 87 years old

    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 ...

    Well It's great to see him having fun with his Jeep; but those rocks sound a bit hard on the undercarriage; not sure I would go that wild if I owned a WWII Jeep!
    One just sold for 95,000 Euros in Franceicon last week at the Tank Museum Auction!!

    I had a Wrangler I bought brand-new in 94'. I drove that thing everyday and played on many weekends for 16 yrs. Never once did that Jeep get me stuck or let me down or break a part in the back country. Made to be played with indeed.

    Mac has done over 30 annual trips over the Rubicon and many other 4X4 trails in this very jeep.
