    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.

Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...

    The book about Germanicon sniper Sepp Allerberger 'Sniper on the Eastern Front' is based on his experiences in the Gebirgsjager. I am not sure on it's authenticity cover to cover, but a good read nontheless.

    Another book called 'Seven Days in January' is about a GB unit's action in Operation Nordwind during the Ardennes offensive. Another good one.

    Thanks Steve,
    I might have to invest in "SNiper on the Eastern Front".

    It is good but some of the descriptions of the torture that happens are rather 'vivid'...... LOL
