    No value, or dividends paid, but the BRAGGING RIGHTS are a big bonus. We are under the same NFL rules and regulations as any of the other NFL owners (most people have not noticed the fine print when they purchased their stock, but it is there in black and white). We get one vote, for every share of stock owned, to elect our governing body (it is a corporation). They are the ones that select CEOs, GM’s, and other business concerns.
    Value wise, it was the worst $200.00 investment anyone could make.
    To me it is the BEST $200.00 piece of paper I could buy and worth 10 times as much!

    P.S. It is not just City Owned, Shareholders are in EVERY STATE and several overseas countries.

    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 ...
