    Nice No1Mk111 from No4Mk(T)

    I picked up a nice Canadianicon marked No1Mk111 today from our friendly moderator
    No4MK1(T).
    I just happened to have a nice Canadian marked sling for it just waiting for a good example to put it on.

    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 ...

    I believe Steve has a bunch of good pix, they are better quality than I can get from our small camera, John

    Yes, I too am guilty of having a nice bit of ancillary equipment and then having to go shopping for the rifle to suit it

    At least when we conduct transactions with fellow collectors the thought of ripoffs doesn't enter the equation.

    A small sight adjustment and the old girl is shooting good, the 174 Sierra and 150 Hornady group nicely.
    On the way home I got the chance to de-guttify a pesky varmint rabbit with a 174 grain hollow point. It nicely makes two wabbits outta one!!!

    This rifle was made the same year my Grandfather went to Franceicon, my aunt has pix of him in uniform posing with his Ross rifle. I am trying to get copies of the pix. It's a slow process as she is in her 70's....

    It also doesn’t hurt that he lives within a 20 minute drive of my house and was able to see the rifle previous to his buying it at a gun show I attended.
