    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 ...

    No Frank, It came with a Pot Belly, and I have that in storage also. In effect I can show it both ways as a restoral when I'm finished, or as a White Bag like I received it. Only takes about 10 minutes right now. If I decide to find the front sight for it, it will take a bit longer, havent decided yet. Thats the fun of it, either way White Bag or restoration, cause like PBI said I am a hoarder, probably never get rid of it. All I do is spend and never sell, hardly.

    Talking Hoarder

    I too could be considered a hoarder Rustship. I hung on to everything until last night when I put 29 carbine items on eBay. It was what my therapist told would help

    Bill,

    I really have no clue. Not up on current prices. I had just found a parts box of some stuff and had been selling it for less, so was joking about maybe asking more.

    I think they are worth whatever you feel you need to get for them. Otherwise people wouldn't be looking for them.

    Jim, I'll make it easy for you... Give you $50 for the entire drawer - and you don't have to tell me what the stamp marks are!

    $56 ?????
