    Thanks for letting me in

    Hello all,
    I'm a new member and a collector of US Military Rifles. I've been reading different forums on here off and on over the past 5 years or so and decided it was time to join. Looking forward to being able to post in the future.

    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 ...

    Hi everyone,
    I have been (still am!) a collector of militaria for over 50 years. From 1850s until 1945. Mainly weapons related. WWI and WWII, MGs, SMGs, rifles and a few hand guns are my main interest. Also a few swords, bayonets and ordnance pieces along the way. Unfortunately I like them all and haven't narrowed my field yet and £££s permitting of course. I am not an expert on anything but wish to gain more knowledge from fellow collectors as yourselves. Hopefully contributing when I can.

    Retired in IOWA

    I finally got my hands on a nice 1903-A3 built by Smith-Corona. I carried one on campus back in the day at Chafee Union High School in California.

    I am retired USAF Master Sergeant and retired Air Force contractor in support of national overhead systems.

    I collect firearms as they grab me - if I only had time and weather to shoot more I would be HAPPY.

    Hi folks! Glad to be here. I am fairly new to collecting and I am mainly interested in 1911s and M1icon Garands. Looking forward to meeting y'all!

    Greetings all,

    My name is Psyoper and I’m happy to be here! I need some help decoding a Lee Enfield stock disc. It on a very nice SMLE #1Mk3. This one is all matching, with the original T type Cocking Piece, Magazine Cutoff, and Long-Range Volley Sight. It was made by BSA in 1915. I’m pretty sure that the 12 15 on top means that it was accepted into service in December of 1915, and I’m pretty sure that the 255 on the bottom is a rack number. What I need to know is; what does the “10 LEIC” mean?

    Thanks!

    P.S. How do I post a picture?

    Just registered

    Just a few minutes ago. I was at one time an avid Milsurp collector but not so much in the past 7 years. I sold many of my guns for medical bills in 2012 but have hung onto my favorites. I'm down to a Yugoicon SKS, a K31 and a M1881 Swissicon Vetterli.

    I have immediate family members who are also milsurp buffs so I have access to loaners.

    I'm a shooter and hunter. If it doesn't shoot it's of no interest to me. I also enjoy hunting with my rifles and have used my favorite K31 to kill hogs and elk.

    So, that's me in a "nut" shell.

    New old guy

    Hello everyone. I'm new here but have been collecting since I bought a Trapdoor off the wall in the local butcher shop in 1963. Actually I traded muskrat hides for it. Still have it. Started out really into the Civil War, then on to the Fur Trade which was huge in our area. Always had an interest in history and archaeology etc. Now working on WWII era firearms and related items. As a kid I always loved buying the old surplus guns and cleaning them up. I remember WWI Frenchicon rifles for $5.00 thru the mail. "Guns" magazine had Lugers and P38's for $39.95.
    Hope to have some fun here and learn.

    Greetings all,

    I joined this evening, but have visited this forum before. I have small firearms collection that includes milsurps. My milsurps focus is on excellent examples of operational rifles, not super rare collectable rifles. I enjoy a fuctional collection of working rifles that I can shoot, maintain, repair, tinker with, and learn about. My new interest is the Lee Enfield No 4 rifle. I will be on here reading, learning, and posting about this classic favorite.
