    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 ...

    Great Shot

    So much of interest! First the B24, then the M1icon in a Jeep scabard, then an MP40.

    That is Gen. O. Bradley in the helmet.

    Are you sure about Gen Bradley? He wouldn't be driving his own jeep... I don't think it quite looks like him...no matter. But I'm thinking here's infantry, aircrew, ground crew, and is that a UKicon rep back in the back?

    Agree, BAR, it looks like him but I'm thinking it's a GI with his trophy. Lots of interest, are those Canadians with the berets? The others are clearly flight crew with the 50-mission-crush hats and ground crew with the softies.

    I like the grenade hanging on the eye-bolt on the passenger side, right under the M1icon.

    Just because the man is sitting in the jeep doesn't mean he's driving the thing.

    Here's a link to more pictures of Gen. Bradley: omar bradley ww2 - Google Search

    I once had the honour of meeting him very briefly.

    Thanks for all those pics Paul, now I'm even more sure it ain't him.

    Really? Here I thought that jaw line and gruff look was one of a kind and unmistakable.

    Looks like him to me.
