    Yes , Mostly A3s , but do do a Garand with WW2 M7 ( hense my restriction ) with the light weight WW2 AT dummys.
    Have a mid-production A3 with launcher , sights and pad. Have a solid M1icon stock that had the holes predrilled so I added the sights and pad . Usually just stick any ol grand in it and grab an M7 out of my collection of them. Also have a pile of dummy hand grenades and adaptors for them , but have not shot them because they are heavier. Also have a M1 carbine stock with sights and a pair of M8 launchers , but have not worked up the nerve to try them out.
    Took them out with some friends . Shot a bolt action .416 Rigby , a 9.3 X 74R double gun , and a Ruger No 1 in .375 H&H . The Grenades didn't seem to kick much after those rifles.

    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 ...
