    Talking The collection grows

    I got a little bored after fixing the Romanian Dragunov today, so I figured I'd take a couple of pics of the ceiling in my locker. I have the hard to get stuff locked up with the bolts of the ceiling guns so they won't be shown. Hope you fellows get a good laugh-SDH

    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 ...

    Well mate, I was hanging by my feet trying to grasp the camera, thanks. Someday when I get more time I'll shoot pics of the whole thing, but, it will be tough trying to get the whole thing in five pics-SDH

    Floor space is at a premium, the knife collection pretty much took that over years ago., on the other side is the shop holding over 12,000 lbs of machinery plus two packed safes. I used to hang some guns in there but, the metal chips were finding there way onto the guns so I quickly banned that approach. The only logical space was the knife room ceiling. SDH

    Well it's a novel storage idea, but where are the rifle bolts?

    Fair enough. I get around that issue by just securely locking the whole room and/or using trigger locks.
