    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.

    I have found my father's Military book from his service in the Portuguese army, 1945-1953
    They go well together.

    That is a beauty, especially the wood. Like the link posted said some were delivered to Portugal and some were comandeered by the Wehrmacht and pressed into service. I can't see how a rifle in this condition saw action in the German army owing to it's high condition so I suspect it was in fact delivered to Portugal especially if it has a matching serial bayonet as these were the only K98kicon's to be delivered with matching bayonets. Seems to me I saw pics of a '41 Port marked K98 on another forum which was Russianicon capture marked, mismatched parts except for barrel and action as usual. It was in considerably worse condition. Too bad it couldn't talk.
