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.

Ditto,
Whats the accuracy of the 17 compared to your 303's like?

Haven't really done much target shooting with it (the Eddystone) yet. I did a quick "sight in" then just some rapid fire plinkin for fun. The SSA I've had for 25 yrs. And the few times I've Target shot with it, it was real informal at my Uncles range. Shot it at 100 yards and seems to be right there with other's SMLE accuracy. It's been a while, But I think it grouped in the 2 1/2 to 4 inch range depending on ammo. I know I can hit a cinder block at 200 yds standing. Not every time, but a good bit. I'd like to shoot a Camp Perry this year in the military bolt class. Haven't shot the Longbranch yet, but if it groups good, I'd like to use it. Also I think you can shoot a Model 1917 in the Springfield class. Not sure though. Well thanks for the welcome, Dane
