Newbie here. Just soaking up some knowledge and debating on semi-restoring an old Remington 1917 that I aquired a couple of years ago.

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.

Hi, just recently found this forum after reading many others. I've been collecting, shooting, and reloading for 20 years now. The favorite part of my collection of course are the surplus military firearms. Look forward to gaining a little more knowledge from this forum.

Hello from a new member. Involved with a group in SW Florida trying to put together a Junior Competitive Rifle Team. In my on line research I came across Hap Rocketto's name and believe he is a member of this forum and would like to get in touch.
Thank you,
