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.

For the past years, I have been trying to collect an early example of every rifle (no full autos) officially used by the US Military starting with the 1873 Springfield (metalic cartridge) and ending with the M16 icon

/AR15. I have a suspicion that there are a bunch of weapons (probably from the Navy, Marines, CoastGuard and AirForce) that I have never heard of. So now my question is does a simple list of these rifles exist. If so can anyone help me find it so I can continue my purchases when I have the money - and research when I don't. It seems I do a lot of research.
