I will take some tomorrow and post them. If the current bunch in Ottawa has its way, I am sure the military expenditure will be such that we will be relying on Louisbourg once again for coastal defence......

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.

A handsome piece.

Nice old musket. It needs to tell you everything now from where it served to how it came to be with you.

"...they would have been called the King's Own Rifles..." Not necessarily. The QOR(formed in 1860. Vicky, who married her 1st cousin, was on the chair. Lotta militia Regiments were formed in those days. Nobody trusted our Southern Cousins to stay south. Then the Fenians came along in 1866.) were still the Queen's when KG V, Ed VIII or KG VI were on the chair. Keeping track of Brit regiments is worse than ours. They've had more mergers and amalgamations than we have.
