    Lets try this:

    No succcess. I think you just click on the "img" in photobucket, then make a new line in your post by hitting enter, then "right click" to get the pic. I don't know if the "jpg" thing will work.

    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 I'm fairly sure I've shown it here before. It started it's life as an M1icon. Serial # has it somewhere around '43. I beleive it was a welded receiver. Sometime in the early 60's it was rebuilt by a gentle man in Ala. by the name of Walter Craig. It was rebarreled with the short barrel in .308 and converted to accept the m-14 mag. I had Jim Swartz make a new op rod for it. He does excellent work by the way. I added a 2.5 X pistol scope mounted on the CMPicon scout mount and painted it tiger stripe. I also replaced the gas tube and added th3e T-37 flash hider. Oh and it shoots real good too.

    Swapped out the Colt stock for a Magpul CTR. Noticed a tendency to engage the length of pull release lever whilst shooting prone.
