    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 ...

    Hi Gunner
    Your idea look like FR G2: link to french armourer catalog
    What I have retained of a similar project is that the owner had kept the visible part of the FR F1 magazine
    and made a clever mounting for fit it inside the action. But it is all…

    If you want better informations you can contact a french people who work at
    Waffen Helfer
    Scheffelstrasse 1
    76437 Rastatt
    Germanyicon
    0049 (0) 72 22 92 99 497
    He is armourer and has learned the job at Liege school. For his knowledge he is of a great and highly recognised help on french shooting forums where he is inscribed.
    I asked him for your problem if it will be possible that you contact him and he told me ok, even in english with email.
    Note that for this you must ask for Olivier.
    I hope this can help you for your project
    Patrick

    Gunner,

    Look on ebay, under "sniper Scope" am sure there is a seller in the USAicon who has listed a complete scope, mount and case. Have often seen one.
