    L42 Lens Brush

    Hi everyone,

    I was lucky enough to find some of these in an Army sale in Trentham Military Camp here in New Zealandicon.

    They won't be going on Ebay so if anyone is interested give me a yell. Also have a bottle I would part with.

    Cheers, Steve

    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 ...

    Lens Brush

    Hi,

    I'm actually after offers, I'm not putting on Ebay as the prices on there are ridiculous and I don't have enough to make my millions.

    Please move if this is in the wrong place, sorry.

    Cheers, Steve

    You should all be advised that this brush is just a standard BRUSH, artists*, lens dusting (I think it says '.... lens dusting and cleaning' in the VAOS cat) and still available in the VAOS system. It's included in most of the optical stores equipment and is an expense item. There were a couple of different shapes/lengths according to the supplier. Sorry to sound like a party pooper and all that and while a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush, bear that in mind.............
    * the word artists didn't mean it was used for painting by artists, it means the softness of the bristles!
