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.

I think it's too much money but it looks pretty good...why?

**Bizio** · 09-25-2012 11:39 AM

Just wanted to have your opinion and impression before any doing.
I have no Ka-Bar in my edged weapons collection so maybe I will try to place a bid there.
Thank you.

Do you require the same paperwork for the K-bar as you do for your bayonets?

**Bizio** · 09-25-2012 11:44 AM

Ka-Bar is classified in Italy icon

as a "knife" and we can buy knives also abroad without any need to declare them as we have to do for bayonets or any other double hedged weapon which are classified here as "dagger" instead.
So no paperwork at all for Ka-Bar.

What ever you do, DO NOT CLICK ON THE BUY IT NOW FEATURE. Curious as to what his reserve might be.

Never mind, $279.00. Way to high unless you're into variations and this is a rare variation as he claims.

It can be expensive in USA icon

but in Italy icon

a WWII Ka-Bar like this one would come even more expensive and maybe not in such good conditions.
I never used Gunbrokers before, just activated my account today.

Thank you for your suggestions.

But if you're buying from a seller in the US, you can get a much better deal than this one. You could also try ebay although some of them will not ship outside the US and Canada icon

You' re right. I had checked at ebay but at moment I could not find any particular good shape items.
I also prefer to trade at ebay and pay with PayPal rather than at Gunbroker where I have to send my credit card details to the seller in unsafe way.
Will wait. Thanks again.
