    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.

    Love the short lived camo they have...you never see numbers all dressed the same. Usually just one man, or two. There's five.

    Ok, that's about what I thought you meant. I was aware of their different pattern. And yes, it does resemble it.

    Yes, the patterns do resemble each other. I remembered thinking how similar the "bunny suits" (one of the dark splotches resembled the playboy bunny) as we called them when we switched from Jungle Greens looked to the WWII USMC Raiders' uniforms I had seen in pictures.
