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.

I was looking at those. Any impressions on condition value etc?

Too pricey for me sight unseen.

The one I received is NRA excellent. full match, mirror bore and all cartouches. It took me ten minutes to order. It was very pleasant to do with no legal bs.... This rifle design was ahead of it's time and Still in service with the AK and M16 icon

. Both straight pull rifles.. I forgot.. The FAL, G3, Cetme and SKS are straight pull rifles too... Gary.

Nope, I don't have that, ice man's bow, or a P210 pistol. I have Schmidt Rubin rifles. Gary.
