    passing of the best 1911 pistols smith on the planet..Ikey Starks

    yesterday i was givin some hard news. long time friend and teacher. Ikey Starks passed Dec 10, 2011,
    Ikey was an awesome man, good Joe, a man of his word, i learned just about everything i know about 1911 pistols from the man..
    those of you who knew him were blessed.. like me, had a rough personality at first but warmed up once you got to know him..his love for dogs, kids, and all things outdoors was inspiring.

    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 ...

    And he wasn't only into 1911's.

    As a rifle shooter, in 1973 he also won the Wimbledon Cup.

    He will be missed.

    oh he was a shooting fool for sure, top of the line pistol and rifle shooter, he also ran me through the M1Aicon match prep program, as well as tought me all the tricks of the Remington 700 and 40X..he,s the reason i have a safe full of 700,s and love the 1911 pistol..as well as a addiction to large frame Smiths..
