    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 ...

    The two guys in front have their souvenirs; a P'08 and a bottle of wine!

    Is the guy with the wine bottle wearing a BAR belt? I can guess why he's smiling if he was an automatic rifleman but now he's carrying an M1icon. Of course, the bottle of wine would bring a smile to any Grunt's face.
    I see the guy behind him has the BAR....and he doesn't look too happy.

    Assistant gunner, several could carry extra ammo for the BAR.

    The guy on the left looks like the actor who played Frank Perconte on Band of Brothers, James Madio.
