    Military Surplus Magazine

    It's been out for awhile, but haven't really heard anyone mention it. Anyone else read it? What'd you think about 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 ...

    Cool Surp Mag

    No I have not heard of it. Was at the book store yesterday and noticed the G&A Mill Surp edition.

    It was mentioned when it first came out a month or so ago. Some seemed to balk at the price. I like it but I like most anything with milsurps in it so I may not be the best judge.

    Magazine

    I bought a copy about a month ago and found it a good read, but I am kind of new to all the weapons so I enjoyed it.

    The last issue of G&A MilSurp was the LAST issue of G&A MilSurp. They said that they thought they had covered the subject as well as they could and with the lack of surplus weapons now available that they were going to focus elsewhere.
    the new one ws alright but it's been done before and better. It seemed to me that some of the writers were not all that familiar with their subects.
    My humble opinion
