    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 ...

    Congratz! Now you just need a crusty old correct stock to go with it.

    Jeff, if I can find a tore up old stock that will be cool. If not, on the wall above my work bench. Jeeze, what have I done?

    I dare you take it to the range and ask the range master if it would be OK to put a few rounds down range with it. Just to see the look on his face. Hee hee!

    Are you sure you "won"?

    You use the word "won" loosely!

    Hi Bill, that rifle looks like it was found by Jaques Y. Costeau at an underwater research arround the Salomons. Eventualy that is also a good idea to make a underwater war relic display with it.

    Let's just say you didn't get a steal...

    Maybe you were the only one who couldn't get out of the room fast enough? That was the one I said I thoughtthe title said it all!!
