    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 ...

    This same auction has been running for months. Anybody stupid enough to pay that much for a magazine in an auction without even a photo deserves to be screwed.

    Heck, for that price I'll sell mine and post pictures.

    Really, who would bid on that?

    I do have a Rock-Ola mag that might go that high on an auction. Its a near pristine T.R. Those are very hard to find. But somehow, I doubt that is what he's selling.

    hi Jim,
    I've never seen a T.R.
    Always heard they were rare.
    Best of luck if you do sell.

    OT, How's Terry been?
    Haven't heard about him for quite a while.

    Regards
    Charlie

    Haven't heard from T for about a month. He's been busy camping and running his daughters to their sports camps. Gunshow season will be starting up around here in a few wekks and we'll probably get together then.
    I'm still looking for that elusive IN mag. I've got the WEP. the T.I. and T.R. mags as well as a bunch of IP mags. But I still can't find and IN.....

    I Guess I Got A Helluva Buy Then..

    I bought a couple of Rock-Ola mags back a few months ago for like $45.00 per, both still in the paper wrappers, that have never been used (and at that price likely never will by me anyway).

    Judging by the prices I'm seeing for anything Rock-Ola these days, I guess I got a great deal when I bought my carbine last fall for around $650.00. Hell, I thought the gun shop was getting over on me. How complete it is I don't know, I've yet to tear it down and really check all the parts as for correct. I know it went through a rebuild, as it has the barrel band with a bayonet lug on it, and adjustable sights.
