    Newbie to interpreting FOIA results-M1 rifle.

    I think I did well on figuring out what all their code is ( they give you a couple of examples) but they left out the explanation for what the capital letters below the heading of “STATUS” mean. Specifically what the letters A, H and C stand for.
    BTW, no treasure found on the FOIA… shipped from Letterkenny in 1980 to Anniston and then bounced around Anniston until I got it from the South store. Oh well, we can’t all have MACV-SOG or Berlin histories!

    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 would love to but I am two states away from it for a few more weeks. I will be happy to then. It has a CMPicon gas cylinder, Criterion barrel and a new CMP branded stock! It is a Winchester serial 1333xxx circa May of 1943 I think!

  5. Thank You to Ed42 For This Useful Post:
