. Original, or not? Looks a little bit different than most I have seen, but then, maybe it actually IS?

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.

Looks like the one the repo kings had made a few years ago. That type of wrapping is typical of repo parts. Sounds like a nice made up story to go with it!

Numbers seem to be stamped and not casted as on the other bp I saw

I agree Matteo, the numbers are way off what is correct.

**imarangemaster** · 08-11-2012 09:50 PM

I agree. That looks like it it from the same guys in Pacific NW that had dogleg hammers (unmarked) it that kind of wax paper about 3 (?) years ago.
