    M14 picture of the day, Afghanistan

    Avenger missile system and M14icon rifle.
    Also, a .50 cal. under the right missile pod.
    The Avenger has a FLIR sight, which is useful for long range surveillance.
    Photo by Sgt. C. Kaufmann, March, 2004, near Ghazni, Afghanistan.

    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 ...

    I think it's because we've past the culminating point of knock-down power and moved more into technology so to get the results we need we have to take a step back. The Canadians have the same problems but unfortunately we don't have a warehouse of FNs to break out for ready use.
    Regards, Jim

    BAR, I know what you're saying. I have hunted with my M1Aicon for 20 years and I haven't run across any big game animal that it won't dispatch. Most drop like soggy poop from a tall horse!

    Oh Boy

    If every citizen had one of these in his back yard- I bet the crime rate would go right down to noting.

    William, I'll bet you're right! And, welcome aboard. Enjoy the sight and the Garand/M14icon photo of the day.
