    British Military Handguns....1854-1954

    Just wanted to put in an unabashed plug for a book that is listed in the dealer sale section from Murray House. Britishicon Military Handguns 1854 to 1954 has information that you will NOT find anywhere else. My old departed friend from the UK, A. (Tony) Taylerson was probably one of the most knowledgeable people on British small arms in the world. The book would be an invaluable asset to any arms library, and it has helped me ID treasures that that otherwise would have gone unnoticed. It will be the best $34.00 you will ever spend, and I could not believe the price. This must be a reprint, as the book retailed for three times that price in the UK, and while I got mine from Tony, I'd not hesitate to fork out $75.00 to $100.00 for a copy.
    Just my .02 cents worth.....

    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.
