*** March 2007 Purchases ***

Yes, I had got the idea they were not common. Although, as soon as I purchased this one, two more popped up on e-bay, one of which also looked as if it had never been painted, and it was dated 1918. Would you know if ~Angel's~ periscope has a broad arrow on it? I have seen pics of six or seven of these and haven't seen one with the stamp on it yet.

When you get around to the telescopes for the MKL icon

, I've got the pam "Section 33, The Straight Telescope". Gives full stripping & reassembly and care instructions for the Scout Regiment Telescope from I believe the late seventies here in Aus.

Cheers,
Son.

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.

I just checked her "1917 Beck" from top to bottom and no, I don't see a Broad Arrow anywhere. I think I read something about this someplace, but can't quite remember.

You don't need to wait on the manual. If you point me to a link, or email me at badger@milsurps.com , I'll host the manual and out an entr together for you.

Thanks

Regards,
Badger

IIRC, you've got a live one of what Badger picked up.
