    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 spent hours making a jig mold for A4 bolts, made a few with welded up firing pin holes, and haven't had any use for the jig mold it since. Sometimes a man just has to know he can do anything anyone else can. I haven't tried to make A4 notches yet, but you certainly have the technique down pat. Good work.
