Bonus for no reason but I liked the photo

A blinding snowstorm in Korean waters halts flight operations aboard the Aircraft Carrier Leyte on Dec. 16, 1950. The planes are already loaded with bombs, rockets and 20mm projectiles and were again in action a short time after the storm ended. (AP Photo) #

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.

My dad was there, and he sure as heck didn't forget it. He went to college afterward on the GI bill and got thrown out of a Political Science class for almost getting into a fist fight with a young teacher my dad said was about his own age who said it wasn't a WAR, but a "police action" where we had no place being.

Cadin's book "Breakout" should be required reading. What those guys did is amazing.
