    Everyone's in the trade now thanks to the internet and inflated auctions. It makes it near impossible to buy anything anymore for resale.

    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 ...

    It's a challenging time to be a relatively new collector (of Lee-Enfields, anyway) but there may be some decent opportunities with a little "contrarian" thinking. Amazing to me, some much older, significant models don't seem subject to the frenzied competition that things like these wrapped Mk2's or No.4T's attract. Over the last year I've found good to excellent Long Lee's, Carbines, etc, at what, by comparison, seem reasonable prices. And I do have a nice Mk2- Pakistani manufacture and in incredible condition that cost- $350.00. It even has a bit of history, having been captured by India.
