    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 ...

    Maybe the Jeep was unocupied when hit. The bullets look like they may have gone through on an angle. Also notice the hood is not latched down. May have been in a hurry!

    Regards.....Frank

    There are other holes too. Just above the drivers wiper, one down in the grill verticals and two in the bottom under the windshield in the metal. Whatever happened, it would have been very exciting...unless you got killed during it.

    I like the "Fire For Effect" motto -- the standard reply to that was "On The Way, Wait."
