    Question for BrianQ.

    Brian, I was talking to my brother John about our collections and he said something about you were coming out with a book on the Carbines. Could you shed a little light on when we might be able to get our hands on one ? We never seem to have enough info. TIA, Bob Loughlin.

    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 ...

    Bob,
    I don't know if there was some miscommunication between John and myself but I have never had any intentions of writing a book.

    The next time I am in your neck of the woods the three of us should get together and talk carbines.

    Brian, no one here cares if you write a book or not - you just have to agree to leave your brain to the carbine club when you die!!!!

    For pete's sake, don't take all that collective knowledge with you - it will be a major loss for not only this generation, but for those generations who inherit these carbines after we are all gone. (and the same damn thing goes for Bill R. too!!!)

    Brian, You bet, I would be most happy to have you walk into my Gun Room. There are more Rifles than guns to be sure. As for thinking you were planning to do a Collector Book, maybe I heard only what I wanted to hear. I will be a buyer if you do put one together. Let me or brother John know next time your in the our Great State of Texas, down around San Antonio and we will do every thing we can to show our Carbines off. Later, Bob.
