    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 ...

    Here's a good explanation from a previous post - Rock Island 1903 Rear sight Disassembly

    I'll try to add a photo when the "bucket" starts working again.

    Mike -

    Off OP topic, but are you now having to wait for the photobucket video ads to run completely before it'll upload a photo? Sure adds a lot of time when you're trying to quickly add a photo to a post. Maybe it's only the 'free' Photobucket accounts, but I'm sure not purchasing a subscription just to add occasional photos to posts.

    Harlan - I have not run into that problem, yet. Recently, I could not find the "Upload" button, the big green one! Very frustrating!

    Yesterday, when trying to post a photo, I was basically told, "Sorry, try again later."

    Now, I can crop a photo, but it won't let me "decorate". Just trying to draw some friggin' lines on the photo.

    The green "Upload" button is back, so...I guess I should be happy for that.
