Another newbie on the forum. I've been collecting for 25+years. WWI and WWII US and British icon

long guns. Have a little bit of everything, including a 1941 Johnson. Any other Johnson folks on the site I would be interested in hearing from.

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.

Hello All,
Just got a service grade M1 icon

last week and found this site by researching the rifle. I've had a few milsurps through the years.
First one was a 03 springfield bought back in the early 70's for $40.
Now have a 1873 trapdoor in excellent condition.
A Norinco SKS that's a excellent shooter despite the "BB gun" trigger.
A 91/30 Mosin that with a little grinding on the rear site, the point of aim is now the point of impact.
And even though its not a true Milsurp, I consider my SP-1 Colt close enough.

Regards,
Tony from northwest Florida

Hi,
New guy from BC. First rifle was a P17 '06, first deer was taken with a #4 Mk1, and I've been shooting 6.5x55s for almost 30 years. I have a Remington 7.62x54R, an Ariska, M42B, Brazilian icon

M98 '06, and a few other old timers. I came here looking for more brass options for reloading.

Hi, I am a new member with little collecting experience. I have read a lot of forums and have enjoyed the answers.

**mskinner** · 06-07-2010 06:47 PM

My interest in this site began when an old friend who gave me a Mauser 1909 Argentino... I am told it is is very good condition but I dont know much about it yet. It has been rechambered for .30-06... I don't know if that is significant or not. So I'm new at this to say the least. Any input this group can give me would be welcomed... Thx
