    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 ...

    Rockola was known for its woodworking previous to making carbines
    Early juke boxes were ornate wood.

    I found a mint second block Underwood out by you a few years ago. It never had a serial number stamped on it. I wonder what ever became of that one

    Rockola made stocks and sent them to IP very early { WB1 }. A few years back I bought a RMC sling well marked I cut H/W stock, but no sign of a car touche. I wanted to use it for a early Rockola action I had so I stripped the stock multiple times with Frombys furniture re finisher and a soft tooth brush but still nothing on the car touche. I gave up and gave it 4 coats of RLO and put the Rockola Action in it and put in my safe for storage. Close to 4 months later I got it out and there it was a faint boxed S'G' and CC. I still have it and it now holds my earliest IP. Your stock just may have been shipped to IP and then later accepted by S'G' people , we will never know for sure.

    Man you got a hell of a deal !!! Want to double your monies ??? LOL Best Chris

    I remember seeing those as a kid too. I didn't know they made stocks themselves.
