    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.

    Just curious. Why would you shoot corrosive in your "bolt gun" if you had one, but not your M1icon, assuming you have one ??? Maybe I am misreading you.

    Because they are easier to clean with no gas system.

    $105 shipped for non corrosive HXP in a SPAM can is a better deal, than the same amount of corrosive in a SPAM can.

    I shoot corrosive in my Mosin Nagant 91/30 all the time. I've got no interest is running corrosive through my M-1's. It's an ease of cleaning thing for me.

    Just use hot water to clean out corrosive salts. Its all I do and I have never had a issue in any of my firearms (from Mosin to Mausers, to SVT-40s). Some people get all fancy with the ammonia etc, but overall it isn't needed and is just a waste of time and money.

    I do the same as Eaglelord does, though my bottle has a little dawn in it. The only thing that really dissolves the salts is the water. For instance in windex the ammonia isn't doing the work, it's the water carrying it. I can't think off hand any cleaning materials that actually can neutralize the salts by changing their chemical makeup, they just dissolve and sweep them away. My main concern is the escaping gas around the handguard being a bit of a PITA to clean up on the barrel. Unfortunately I missed out on this lot of ammo.

    Would just require cleaning the gas cylinder and the end of the op rod a little better, I would think. You're going to clean them, anyway.

    WHy do people have such and adverse regard for cleaning their guns? Is it THAT difficult or such a laborious disliked chore? And this negativity to "corrosive" ammo.......Just clean your gun! You can do it while watching tv. The only extra step is to run something through the gun to neutralize the slats....Windex with ammonia works. well....or hot soapy water....same thing I used to clean my black powder guns with. Seems that gun owners only like their guns if they don;t have to take care of them. I would think that gun owners who take such pride in their guns would enjoy taking care of them as well. That's just me.
