    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 ... BDL Ltd. - Specializing in British and Commonwealth weapons Specializing in premium ammunition and reloading components. Your source for the finest in High Power Competition Gear.

    Makes you suspicious with those few scarce hard to find items and also being from Cal where that notorious humper is from.

    Also notice the "no returns" policy! Maybe George from another dimension?

    Charlie,

    I thought you had mentioned this seller before on your watch out list?

    I looked up Sylmar, it's as you come into LA just out of the mountains.

    I have SW in a circle oilers, but marked on the cap, never seen one on the bottom before.

    I can't believe anyone thinks those leaf sight markings are original. Laughed at the IP safety. It just never ends.

    if he is the same U.S.iconCarbine ( Joe Scattaglia ) I'm thinking of from Colorado he was a righteous seller,i purchased a few stocks and flip rear sights from him and all was good. however that was a few yrs back without knowing he may have moved, dropped out of sight or someone else is using the same seller handle. who knows?

    It is sad to think that once righteous sellers have been corrupted to the dark side of the force. The pull of high dollars for humped parts, the the huge market created by the proliferation of the CMPicon carbines is too much for some to bear.
