    If you are REALLY a Enfield collector

    Ubique Collection

    But you have to be hopelessly infected with enfielditis to do this.

    I/4 scale and accurate to the last detail

    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 ...

    Miniature Infantry rifles similar to these were available in kit form in the mid 1960's, our local hobbyshop carried them.
    The kits had real wood stocks and very detailed barreled actions with removable operating bolts.
    They were about the right scale for the old GI Joe around 1/6 scale, maybe smaller.

    I'm not sure but those kits may have come from Italyicon or Spain.

    I remember those kits, however these pewter models are far above those kits in detail. (and the bayonet is removeable)

    They made a Martini-Henry with a copy of a VC on a plaque in the same scale but apparently that's no longer in production. (got mine)
