    Goos idea - maybe it could be kept in the 'library' ?
    Mine are not the best, but they are not too bad. I can think of lots of Enfields I'd rather have but instead of constantly striving for more, sometimes it's good to be satisfied with what one has...

    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 just got in the mail today, "Britishicon Enfield Riflesicon, Vol. 2, Lee-Enfield No. 4 and No. 5 Rifles" by Charles B. Stratton. It was $15.00 at Amazon. It's a start.

    I know it's not a book, the the Wikipedia article on the Lee-Enfield is a pretty good general overview of the subject too - certainly enough for the average new Lee-Enfield owner to perform a basic "What sort of rifle is this and where was it made?" as well as getting some background, without needing to spend hundreds of dollars on (admittedly excellent, in Skennertonicon's case) reference books.
