    Amazing Technology

    Attachment 63700

    Flying home from Italyicon, and enjoying Milsurps. What a great time to be alive.

    Who would ever think you could be on the internet as you fly over the herring pond.

    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 ...

    Believe me HoH, it felt like 100 degrees C!!!!! Saw some very interesting stuff at the SAR show in PA. Rare as rocking horse shi…………, er…, manure No5 grenade launcher not seen outside the old PR and packed in thick grease. Plus a neat Webley Mk6 sub cal kit. Plus the usual eye opening stuff that we'd like to have in the UKicon

    I owe you a beer from a few years back so stop by the Okanagan and I will buy you two!

    If you arrive Sunday we are predicted to be 40C/104F.

    There is a military shoot at the Vernon range Sunday, you can have the pick of the Lee Enfield litter if you show.

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