    Just FYI,
    The seller completely changed his original ad.

    Nice work Jim - You might have saved someone some heartache.

    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 see he also dropped the price $40 from $290 to $250.

    I would bet at $11.91 a box, someone will buy it.

    CORROSIVE or not. Someone will have a shooter that eats the muzzle guage, and give it a go.

    Hmmm. At that price it starts becoming enticing food for a certain Universal Type 3 that swallows a ME gauge.
    With finances the way they are right now, one more little price drop just might do it.

    And I'm going on Saturday to get one too. The milk shakes are in the metal can, you get 2 1/2 glasses out of it.
    Damn, still have two days to wait.

    Here's a link, check it out.

    Tim,

    I don't know how familar you are with Hayward, or the direction you are coming from. So I will just give you the addess and you can goggle map it.

    Val's
    2115 Kelly St
    (between B St & Center St)
    Hayward, CA 94541

    (510) 889-8257

    I come 580 west.
    Take Castro Valley off ramp.
    Go under the freeway to the top of the hill.
    Turn left on Center.
    Go down to the next light which is Kelly, turn left and you are in front of Val's.

    Then I order my Papa burger, Freedom Fries or Oinion rings, and a Milkshake.

    They are closed on Sunday and Monday. Best time to go is 14:00-14:30 after lunch and before dinner. Lunch time you can be waiting out the door for over a 1/2 hour.

    As good as that Val's burger looks (and that's REAL GOOD) I think since I'm on the other coast I'll just have to get by with a Five Guys Bacon Cheezeburger w/everything on it, w/fries, of course. MMMmmmmmmm-Luv them 5guys :-)
