    Thanks fellas, I bought my first rifle about six years ago and then I went a little haywire. There is only seven in the picture that I have not shot, I shoot in a lot of silouette matches.

    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 ...

    Great collection. It must take you forever to oil them all. But it is a labor of love. Is that an NFA Bren Gun I see lurking about. If so you are an extraordinarily lucky fellow.

    Got to like a guy who has his priorities straight. Firearms first. Furniture second. Does your girlfriend have a sister?

    You HAVE been busy.

    I used to enjoy IHMSA. But there's no local matches any more. BPCR has been tempting, but the old rifles I like just don't fit in.

    There's a ton of history there. An Amazing collection. I didn't see or missed the Enfield No1 Mark 3 SMLE. I did see the nice No4 Mk1. My favs the M14icon and the m16 Commando, Bren... I could go on and on. Good stuff man.
