    continental cartridges for drillings, single shots & even Mauser

    I have a small collection of continental cartridges used for the most part in expensive rifles for hunting. Both drillings, combination guns and single shot rifles use these cartridges except for the 11,2x72 Schuler which was designed for the Mauser Model 1888 in 1904.

    left to right: RWS 8x72R, 8x65RS Brennecke (also rimless), 9,3x72N, Norma 9,3x74R and the 11.2x72 with rebated rim for the Mauser

    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 ...
