    Dodgy .303 Ammo

    I am posting this info without being able to verify it. If true, it represents a serious threat to C&R collectors shooting Lee Enfields.

    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 ...

    I've had tens of thousands of rounds of South African manufacture PMP but all was dated 1980. I've never seen any 1967 stuff. I know for a fact that tons, (literally), of weapons from Zimbabwe are being imported to the UKicon for resale and remanufacture into legal deacts so it may be a bigger worry there.
