    Some of my best work

    As everyone knows, I love to work on carbines. Here is an early tab springtube Winchester I rebuilt last year. I put on one of those NOS rear sights from Riverbank. Looks great, right.

    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 ...

    Sounds like something Roger would do.....Like stacking carbines like cordwood!
    When they tell you to behave, they always forget to specify whether to behave well or badly!

    As I said here is some of my work. For years I have laughed inside when all of you told Newbies they had to replace their front sight if the carbine shot too high. I did this in the 60's. I just built it up alittle with?

    TEST, can you tell what it is?

    Wouldn't building up the front sight make it shoot lower?

    Thanks, I changed above from low to high. And no it is not Jello but a good guess.
