    Another source of Enfield material

    Just announcing an expanded page on Enfield Resource.com, and something that is a surprisingly improved source of Enfield 'stuff' for us. Google images as a search tool is lately much improved and the images it finds are pretty nice. Clicking on the images is also a great way to locate new material on websites that discuss lee enfields but who don't carry those words in their main names or keywords and consequently also don't pop up on most popular web searches.
    So, head to Enfield Resource under the Visual Media button and you'll now find links to still images of everything Lee Enfield, (or click on the link below) cheers rjwnz

    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 ...

    Sorry, is she holding something?

    Roger, whilst I don't love ebay, you listing of regular Enfield parts sellers are quite helpful.

    When I am trying to find something, your site is a good place to start.

    Thanks Paul, good to know. There's some good folks selling on ebay and its always worth supporting their 303 addiction.

    Can I encourage folks to try this out?

    I've sort of discovered a gold mine of Enfield images on google and want to spread the joy. Even detailed type searches for parker hale target sights or rifles brings a plethora of great pictures. Take a bit of a look and let us know what you think and find. I see plenty of images from familiar sites there, cheers rjw NZicon

    Yes indeed, a goldmine of Enfield photos! I visited this site once a good while ago, but it has been enormously expanded since then. A valuable resource, and thanks for the tip!

    Don't do this at work. If you do a Google search for FN-49s, then hit the Images section, there are pictures that have nothing to do with the FN rifle.
