Movie on all WWII cartridges. Carbine is surprising

This was pretty good info and the carbine shoots well at 100 yards straight thru a helmet. Enjoy. Rick B icon

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.

Slightly misleading. The helmet is to protect against shell splinters and explosion ejecta, not small arms fire.

If I remember correctly, Audie Murphy had no trouble making head shots on Germans with helmets on during WWII with his favorite weapon, the M1 icon

Carbine. Thanks Rick.

I found the uniforms, weapons' effects, and drill very informative.

However, I'm sure that the veterans of WWII and later on this forum would be howling in laughter at how cooperative the "germans" in the flick were at getting themselves killed -- like marching around with their hands in each others' pockets, not noticing Our Hero sneaking up with grenade in hand, etc.

The Germans of World War Two were many loathsome things -- unfortunately, this rarely included being incompetent at infantry tactics.
