    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.

    At least one of the companies that made them in the 1950's was called 10-X. A search on ebay for 10-X Shooting Jacket will bring up several of them.

    The USMC shooting jackets are nice but the elbow and shoulder padding is thin. I have a 10-X jacket which has great elbow pads and leather pulse and shoulder pads. It does not offer the support of a hardback jacket for offhand but it serves me just fine. I got mine off of eBay for $20 shipped. If you want a USMC jacket for nostalgia then buy one but if you want one for shooting buy a 10-X or basic shooting jacket from Creedmoor or Champions Choice.
