    He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep to gain that which he cannot lose
    There are no great men, only great challenges that ordinary men are forced by circumstances to meet.

    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 ...

    Is the top one a SA? Narrow base sight, narrow ears and flat rear gas cylinder ring, gas cylinder lock screw? Wish we could see the rest.
    Regards, Jim

    Helmet Dog

    We recently used that shot on the back cover of the GCAicon Journal, it's one of my favorite photos. I wonder if the GI could ever suspect that the helmet would someday be worth $1000 Value of the pooch? Priceless!

    My former boss brought home a Germanicon mutt he named "Fleisch," kept him in Westchester until it got old and died. Lucky dog!
    Real men measure once and cut.
