    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 ...

    Don Kocks was a member of Company "F" 2nd Bn, 223rd Regt, 40TH Div. during the period 1952-53
    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.

    awesome, I had the honour of deer hunting with a Korea vet (Cdn) 2 yrs ago and my oldest daughter is studying the Korean War within the context of the "Cold War" era now in gr. 10
    I'm going thru the book she brought home; "At War In Korea" by George Forty
    many good pics including of my fave, the M1icon Carbine

    Korea

    DO NOT FAIL to get the Summer GCAicon Journal and read the story of Hector Cafferata... he killed OVER 200 Chinese with an M1icon as they attacked Fox Company's perimeter, thereby saving the position and, by extension, the 8000 Marines cut off at Yudam-ni. It will be mailed in about ten days. I was blown away talking to him earlier this month.
    Real men measure once and cut.
