    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.

    Ulrich, I'm having a bit of difficulty positively identifying the particular type of diopter that is mounted on my rifle.

    Some have opined that it is a "Busk" and others believe that it is a "GF".

    what do you think?

    Thanks, Steve

    Hi Steve,

    i looked in my books and have seen a lot of swedish diopters ( Pramm, Söderin, Hooka, Fäldt... ) but i think also that it is a GF. But you`re right, it is difficult.

    Hope it helps.

    Best Regards

    Ulrich

    Thanks for looking, Ulrich.

    Some people on other forums think it is a "Busk" diopter. I think they may be right

    Busk Diopter - what model? - Gunboard's Forums

    A CG 80, at last - Gunboard's Forums

    Supposedly it is used a lot on the Sauer 200 STR rifle that is used in matches.


    Best regards,

    Steve
