    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 ...

    Good eye's Jim.
    That is a dummy cartridge belt. I picked it up to hang on a branch of a big pine on our farm that I call "Jake's Tree". I have made it a Memorial for him. It has a special meaning between him and me.
    Someday a bunch of us ought to get together and get the cards out.....Frank

    Understood, I have a similar type of "special meaning place" for my daughter who passed as a teen in 1985.

    RM, us cheeseheads are use to dealing with snow and cold. We're in for a cold blast this week, time to den up.
    If you or any of the guys ever get this way in the summer stop on by. Would love to show you around.....Frank

    Looks like if a guy came for a few days, you put up the inflateable bed and he's good. Beer fridge and all. Mine is smaller and used to be a sauna. It too has plumbing, electricity and a wood stove. I had to install an evacuator fan to remove the lead fumes from casting bullets. I made it from a furnace fan.
    Regards, Jim
