    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 ...

    Jim,
    Same member dnikkor sold a Stock pouch with 2 BW magazines for $142.50 a short while back.
    He's been on a roll.
    I've asked him to stop in and visit after he gets his banking finished up.

    Hi guys, nobody was more surprised than I with what my mags sold for. Some of them were the best $15 I ever spent!

    I think detailed photos AND descriptions make a big difference.

    Also, considering the price paid, I upgraded both mags & shipping out of the kindness of my heart.

    Thanks Charlie,
    I do stop by once or twice a week to listen and learn, I just haven't been bothering anybody in awhile.

    And I'm not the only one who has been lucky with selling mags. Look what somebody paid for a couple of pigs in a poke (most likely "U" mags).

    I'll try not to be a stranger around here as much. This forum has taught me a lot.

    Oh, not to rub anything in, but after upgrading both the R-C and the OI B mags, I ended up giving the guys next in line a "second chance" and sold both the mags from the original auction. At this rate, I'll be able to afford another carbine before too long!
