Just the ticket it must certainly have some serious horse power stored under the hood.

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.

And, after the assault landing, the Colonel wants to go water-skiing!

Is that Steven Hawking doing the narration?

Not sure Bruce I suspect it may be computer generated thats why it probably sounds like him

Computer generated voice...that AFV wouldn't have any glitches or hiccups once in use or anything. All those moving parts down below would get hammered out of service pretty quickly. Far too expensive for an AFV...

Not sure whether it would last long in a decent swell when its running on NBC mode, unless they have a snorkel of course.
Wouldn't want to see more tragedy like the Sherman skirts!!

The US Marines have been testing that thing at Camp Pendleton in California since Bush the latter was President. The irony here is that the money-hungry and short-sighted Obama administration actually considered/proposed reducing or eliminating the Marines amphibious warfare role since their current commitments are inland.
