    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 ...

    By the way, these items were from the Alexander Massie estate. The late Mr. Massie was a fairly serious militaria collector with a particularly large and high end medals collection. The bulk of it was sold in Englandicon about 12 years ago after his passing. His wife only recently discovered that he had firearms well hidden in the basement!

    Doug

    Well, not quite in person, but the next best thing to it...

    Check the MKLicon for a detailed 137 photo pictorial with lots of close-ups of a Pattern 1913 "Trials" Rifle (.276 in.) (click here) in the United Kingdom Knowledge Library (click here).

    That's the very first No.4 Mk.I trials rifle that I've ever seen that WASN'T converted for scope use. It might be rarer than the "rarer" rifles, if that makes any sense.

    No overtime this year makes the prices seem even higher. But still nice to know there's good gear circulating a bit.
