    I’m looking at a supposed 1915 Lithgowicon with hooked quillon but the date of 1915 as well as the shield & Lithgow all stamped upside down from what I’m generally seeing elsewhere. Is this a red flag as it seems to me or is not of concern to those in the know? It also has a stamp of 10/21 which I’m unsure what that indicates. I’m a decades long collector of American stuff that’s now learning on Britishicon & Commonwealth & Imperial nations’ militaria. Thank ya.

    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 ...
