    Follow up to the RR NIB thread...

    This is my display of NIB M1911A1s, which includes the latest RR. The upper left RR is an early Dulite blue example. The lower left Ithaca came from a doctor in Spokane who was a MASH surgeon in Korea and still alive BTW, and the lower right Colt is the USAAF P47Ns pilot.. ENJOY!!!!!

    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 ...

    This shot shows the Ordnance stamp and the early MSH... Also the Dulite blue.



    This shot shows the rough surface cause by sand blasting before the finish was applied....
