    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 ...

    What a beautiful collection, just drives me crazy that we aren't allowed to own one in Canadaicon unless it is on a grandfathered lic. I have a friend that has a couple and am going to email him to see if he belongs. Possibly owning two Chieftan tanks will disqualify him...lOL.
    Why use a 50 pound bomb when a 500 pound bomb will do?

    I'm totally befuddled by all that...they have members in Argentinaicon, Britainicon, Germanyicon, Italyicon, Holland, Aus and NZicon.

    I'd say try joining again or email the webmaster and ask what's up...heck, they took me and I hardly knew bupkis about anything when I joined up!

    It'll be the type of email provider that you have.
