Greetings all and welcome to 2021.

I've been around firearms on and off most of my life, but am still a novice and completely new to the world of collecting C&R rifles. My primary interest is the WWI-WWII era and I have done some reading on-line over the years, but I just made my first purchase (No4 Mk I). At a glance, I don't think I did too well, but I'll head over to the Lee-Enfield forum and see what I can find out.

Thanks for having me!

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.

Hello, Oscar from Texas here. I have a hoarder's garage so when you really need a part and think its hopeless, if no one else can help you, maybe you can hire the A-Team of gun parts type of guys. Me. So send me a message for your wants. We can trade all day long.

Hey, I'm Mitch from Columbia SC. I have several milsurp pistols and rifles including a Gewehr 88, a Verterlli, a Lee Metford (sporterized apparently by a Boer), a Mosin Nagant Rifle, and a Ross M-10. The M-10 is missing some parts, and I'm pretty sure the bolt has not been assembled correctly. I've been doing a lot of surfing and searching, and from this site, I know a lot more than I did a couple of hours ago. I plan on looking and learning some more until I can get this thing working. Very hard to find parts anywhere. Glad to be here.

Lads and Lasses,

Odd name, eh? But as I've walked the Grand Portage under a 22 foot freighter canoe, under a tumpline, had a swig of rhum, knee deep in the water, then continued paddling to Winnipeg. According tradition, everyone who does that is an Homme Du Nord.

Life on the eastern slopes is grand, it's life affirming to live here.
