    One would like it is training as that looks a fairly exposed position to be firing so many rounds especially if the enemy is entrenched in the tree line would make target definition very hard among the foliage and shadows.

    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've tried using flap up on my M1Aicon and it's not my favorite. Just wondered if anyone used the thing.
    The "flap" is best used in the prone position when on FA fire.

    That is a Stabilizer Assembly. It slides over the flash hider and clamps on behind the bayonet lug.

    these were originally designed for a full auto application, but do they really do a good job of taming recoil and muzzle rise during semi-auto rapid fire

    That's right. It's really just a muzzle brake that has smaller holes on the top and larger toward the bottom sides.

    Here are a few pictures of one.
