    What to do with Magazine Articles

    I had a big pile of magazines sitting around that I was tired of sitting around. So today I pulled out all the pages of the articles that I wanted, Milsurps of course. The end result is a half inch thick stack of pages.

    What I've done with them in the past is put them in the clear sheet protectors and put them in a notebook but these things are covered in ads.

    Anyone do anything with these, scanning them cropping them, etc? What's the end result?

    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 ...

    I also have stacks of magazines but I don't have the heart to cut them up. What I did was I went to my local Target Store and bought Magazine Holders. They are a fold out box where you can store your magazines vertically . Then you can then stick them on a shelf.

    When I was shopping for a barrel I noticed "Match" barrels . I just wanted a standard carbine barrel, as issued type. I don't expect much out of a carbine pin point accuracy wise but I guess they did take out "Bugsy" Siegel out with 2 Carbine rounds to the eyes .

    I have never been one to tear apart magazines so I can relate but I've reached a point in my life where I'm desperately trying to downsize and I have no interest in anything but the military surplus aspects of these magazines. I took the whole lot of magazines to the recycling yesterday and they are going to benefit the Ronald McDonald House so I felt pretty good doing it. I have 50 years worth of National Geographics in the attic that I have on DVD now but I'm still reluctant to get rid of them. Something about holding it in my hands I suppose but I have to do something. I do not want to turn into one of those hoarders you see on TV.

    I think I'm going to try scanning them into my computer and cropping the adds out and reformatting them somehow.
