    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 ...

    ccrider:

    I'm not really sure what kind of response you desire here..........

    If you just want an inexpensive 03A3 drill rifle receiver for a paperweight, these are probably not a bad deal.

    If you want to build a drill rifle, again, probably not a bad deal.

    If you want to build a shooter that you will keep and use for the rest of your life, while some question the use of recovered drill rifle receivers, and others don't, you may still have that small voice in your head every time you pull the trigger saying "is this thing completely safe"?

    If you want to build a rifle for resale, then, in my opinion, this is a deal breaker.

    I all depends on what you want, and ALWAYS remember, this advice is worth exactly what you paid for it........
