Skennerton's NEW Lee-Enfield Book Available to Order

They arrived today !!!!!

The limited "signed" edition (only 303 copies printed) presentation case version is simply beautiful. Looks like a real old world library book with gold leaf edged trim.

I also got a regular edition for that "dog eared" research we all do. The content is definitely expanded with some nice new sections on accessories and bayonets, plus production information.

Lookforward to a thorough book review from one of our members soon...

Regards,
Badger

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.

Don McIntyre is an evil man! I stopped by his place last night to pick up my copy and ended up buying 2 other books as well. He just kept showing me books that I wanted and offering me good deals on them.

Seriously, Don is a great guy and keeps a really interesting selection of titles. I would certainly recommend him to anyone.

Regarding the new Lee Enfield book, I have had about 20 minutes to look through it and it looks great. The only thing that bothers me a little is the section on the AIA Enfields. I realize they are a modern Enfield varient and deserve a place in the book, but it feels a little too much like a big "AIA is wonderful and can do no wrong" advertisement. Seems a little out of place in a reference book, but I guess until I write one myself I can't complain too much. Otherwise, a great book and very much worth the price.
