    L.E.C. restoration

    Is anyone in the world producing woodwork and bands for the early carbines? I know there was a guy in Canadaicon many years ago. Any leads would be much appreciated.

    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 ...

    There are two people, one makes wood the other nose caps. Not cheap and IIRC bigduke6 gave me their names.


    Super quality work.

    Why use a 50 pound bomb when a 500 pound bomb will do?

    That nose cap is sweet. Do you know if the guy that made it also makes front sights ? I have a carbine that is missing the front sight and have been searching for one for ages.
