    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 ...

    I just bought a Savage No 4 breech cover from an ebayer on my side of the pond who noted delayed shipping due to his attendance at the war and peace event. Do you have a link to any information ,photos etc...? Must be quite an event.

    Due to our so called BBQ summer being rained off, most people here are depressed, and if the weather carries on like it is, I would be supprised if all the events go ahead at the show.

    Thumbs up

    I'm going to Beltring next year. Haven't been for about 10 yrs.
    2013 will be a busy year. I start with Kreta in Mai, then to Casino and Normandy and then over to Beltring.
    I'll wedge a trip to Berlin and Praha in between Normandy u. Beltring. Should give the rental car a royal workout!
