Thinking of parting with mine now!! Has all the signed paperwork from its user on Mount Tumbledown too..............that is good news and moving in the right direction not like Classic Cars which have sadly tumbled unless you have the right one!

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.

Thanks, but at that price and active bidding (and its not even a buy-it-now) I'll wait a while longer.

The Precistas were pretty reliable but there were only a couple of contracts with them due to being a tad more expensive. The CWC's were said to be waterproof - in that they let the water IN but wouldn't let it OUT again. You've GOT to replace the back and battery trap seal EVERY time

I've recently read that DS Solutions is offering reproductions of the L42A1 transit chest, as well as the plastic bottle.

**Gil Boyd** · 09-02-2019 10:18 AM

This is all I could find on their site: Reproduction, Metal Hardware Set for Chest No15 Mk1 (No4(T) Sniper Rifle)

**Promo** · 09-02-2019 12:29 PM

It was a picture of their booth at a militaria show. They had for sale the items I had mentioned. Maybe give them a call - not sure why not on the website?

**skiprat** · 09-02-2019 12:54 PM

yep they were on the DS Solutions stall at the Odyssey show, (as well as reproduction No8 tins Mk1 (square edge) and Mk2 (canvas)
John dose not list all his stock on the website if there is limited quantity or one-off's as the website would need constant updating. best to drop him an email with your wish list.

**skiprat** · 09-02-2019 04:02 PM

this will be the photo Promo was on about, some reproductions but original No4 rifle slips, scout scope tripod, and L96/l115 scope carry case, and knee patches

**Scout Sniper** · 09-02-2019 04:47 PM

Nice, can you remember how much the scope carry cases were?

**Micheal Doyne** · 09-02-2019 05:13 PM

Is that repro L42 transit £275!? Who can I talk to about buying that?
