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.

Don't recognise thge TSD initials but the RSG is Returned Stores Group, now named the RSSD - Returned Stores Sub Depot which was always a part of the big Ordnance Depots. FSO is the Freight Shipping Order details. Not necessarily 'shipping' as in ships but more the method of it being moved somewhere

Very nice!

Is there any significance to the chest being painted black? I seem to remember Brian saying something about black chests.

**Peter Laidler** · 10-12-2014 05:31 PM

Nope, just down to the idleness of the Arms storeman at a guess. Sniper rifles were usually kept in the chests within the Armoury or if not, with the rest of the assorted crap such as Bren chests and other bozes, just stored elsewhere. A good place was always underneath the firing point of the 25 yard miniature range

Is it just the lighting or has the rear leg of the scope bracket been welded in the area of the serial number?
