    National Geographic Special on IMA : "Family Guns"

    Many of us military surplus freaks on both sides of the border have worked directly or indirectly in bringing together the 9 part Nat Geo special centered around International Military Antiques and their business of supplying 200 years+ worth of historic material and quality reproductions. While not a huge fan of "reality TV", this one is worth watching, particularly for those with bits and pieces from the Nepal Cache, which is what originally caught Nat Geo's interest. The first segment airs Wed 12 Sep at 10PM.

    While I have no idea what pieces made it into the first episode, I can assure you it should be worth watching.

    While it is true I'm hyping the show, I have no business or financial interest in it.

    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 ...

    "Family Guns".......

    I saw a promo for the show and tried to set Tivo© but it has not shown up in the queue yet.

    It did look interesting and maybe they will be a little more forthcoming on the legalities of ownership of automatic weapons unlike the other BS so called "Gunmakers" shows.
