    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.

    Thompsons...tons of them. Not just pristine, in fact NIB. This goes to show what I suspect about gun control...if all firearms were outlawed today and demanded to be turned in, two hundred years onward a new in grease Thompson would surface. Just like these.

    I'll take two.

    Incredible. Maybe if Ukraine regains control we'll get some imported as parts kits. I really want an ak-74 but kits are too rich for my blood. Would be great if they'd part with some of those and flood the market, bringing prices down.

    Sign me up. I'd settle for a pair, one for show, one for go. Oh, and like BAR says, a couple of cases of ammo and some fresh mags for proper feeding. If one had a few dings in the stock, that'd be OK.

    Thing I didn't see was for sure were they the 7.62x25 or .45ACP? I think the M1icon had no special mag housing attachment like they made so they didn't touch them after lend lease. Honestly, here I don't know where I would even store two CASES of them. Just a couple and mags...one each, 28A1 and M1...and a truck load of ammo. I'd love to see the case lot markings on the ammo.

    By the time you lot have finished there'll only be a few empty creates left.

    One does wonder why Ukraine didn't sell it all off in the 1990's when things like the Thompson became available in the UKicon as deactivated that UK militaria dealers had got from Ukraine. Unless they didn't want to "flood the market"?

    All those Lend-Lease tanks the US shipped to Soviets during WW2 had Thompson submachine guns as part of the vehicle's BII (Basic Issue Items)
