    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.

    I don't know what the wood is but it has a cherry wood look or finish. Pictures are included of stock and cartouche.

    Ruth says that when Rock Ola ran out of Walnut they started using Cherry. If it looks like Cherry and there's evidence they used Cherry then it's probably Cherry! Whatever it is, it's the finest Rock Ola I have ever seen.

    If you want to know if it's Cherry or not then take the buttplate off and look at the wood under the plate. I have seen some interesting, still undecided debates about whether it was a Cherry, Walnut or some other wood used on a particular carbine stock.
