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.

There were 10 made by the president of National Postal Meter Chas R. Ogsbury to give to the War Department. This one pictured is his personnal copy and the other one that exist (2) both belong to me. They are filled with pictures of the plant and information detailing the production of the M1 icon

Ok, it is obvious that the doctors did not use a standard medical stink... you had a portion of a demill carbine barrel installed instead...

Dude, you take carbine addiction to new heights!

We are truely not worthy.

What the heck is a medical stink?

He meant 'stent', the little tube device they put into an artery to keep it open and flowing. Unfortunately, I have one myself, but it beats the alternative.
