    would't you know that while looking for Vintage .22 WINCHESTER AUTOMATIC ammunition on PROXIBID I would run across another GOLD plated UNIVERSAL M1icon CARBINE -- Get your bids in early!

    As a bonus there is also a Gold Plated GYROJET MODEL 137

    You can be all blinged out with these two..

    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 ...

    They contrast nicely with the silver plated muffler bearings.
    When they tell you to behave, they always forget to specify whether to behave well or badly!

    You know, if everyone was satisfied with a plain gun there would be no engraved or silver and gold plated guns. They don't have to make you happy, they have to make the person that buys them happy. The "feelings" of those who don't like them are unimportant.
