    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 ...

    Blimey! I hope that buyer likes my item that's on there currently. I always get the punters with short arms & deep pockets!

    If the buyer is into super rare sniper memorabilia I have a deal for him!

    I have what is possibly the only target that Carlos Hathcock ever missed! Imagine that, the great man missed! And you can have the unmarked target to prove it, in your collection! (Price on application)

    Years ago I bought an unopened crate of RG50 MkVII. 600 rounds in two sardine cans, boxed.
    I sold most of the bandoleers on ebay with ten chargers each and made more than the ammo cost. But that empty cardboard box will take the cake if it sells
