    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 ...

    I know the feeling. When I first went to the Royal Military College of Science" ('RMCS') at Shrivenham with H.M. Customs & Excise I was astounded at the collection they had. Unfortunately I was NOT allowed to take pictures!

    First there is the lust and drool factors, and then there's seeing stuff one has 'played with' but hasn't seen in decades ...

    Tah for that.

    The last I heard, most of it was all in crates pending a move so that the building that it is in can be renovated.

    That's a pity the collection is being broken up. Like Spike I have many pictures of my time there. They had some Aussie stuff there I would like to have.

    I was supposed to be posted there '94-'96...from Gagetown NB small arms school. Didn't make it though, always a sad memory for me. I'd have loved to have done time there.
    Regards, Jim
