Hi my name is Henry and when I do google searches it often directs me to this site. Decided to register because it appears there is a ton of information to be found. Glad to be here. I look forward to visiting this site as much as possible 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.

New member here. Have collected for about 15 years. Use to spend a lot of time on Bill's sight but then I took a break from collecting and when I came back, that sigh was a little slow.

My newest buy is a 1900 Carl Gustav M96.

I also like to reload. Currently I load 9mm, 45ACP and .223 but I just bought 6.5 Swede dies and with the price of 303 Brit, I have no idea those will be the next dies I purchase.

Hello! Lets see: Pushing 80 Started collecting in 1956, military only Managed a gun store in Alexandria, VA (betcha you can't guess which one) 1957-1959 Pretty much stopped collecting in 1970; had to give up shooting around 1980 or so (killer arthritis) Primary interest is military small arms from 1853 to 1919, but most of my junk is WWW I to II

I look forward to learning things, maybe finding a few things I can contribute.

See you online!

Welcome aboard!
I have spent some time in that store when I was in DC/Va. Bought a lot of guns & other stuff from them. My business name back in the 60s & 70s was Rebel Arms. I was in Peculiar, Mo in those days.
