    Yes sir, I'm well aware of exactly what context you spoke in. I was in from '74 to '08. I did lots of time on US posts, as we used to. You and I could get into specifics and other things right now that might prove tasteless to the observers here. I remember them all well...

    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 ...

    All of that bad stuff happened and from what my dad told me "back in the day" it was hushed up and swept uner the rug. Most never heard of the bad things happening unless they were very close to it or a part of it.

    For the sake of keeping it civil here let's not all get too wrapped around the axle over what happened and what did not. Each has their memories of their time in service. Please share them as we all would love to hear them. Thanks guys for your service to this and their respective countries.
