    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 ...

    You see the odd one for sale but that appears to be more than we typically see bid. I personally think they're worth that much because of comparitive rarity but others here almost violently disagree. We spent ten pages of thread comparing them to the WW2 Singer because it had been issued in WW2 and this one was never accepted. The first war ended while these were on the assembly table. I still would love to have a GOOD one unaltered, but I couldn't affort half the price. By the way, has the barrel link been changed? I didn't think they were crudely stamped back then. The front sight has been messed with too. Too bad. That just takes away.
