    M1 Carbine "Caught in the wild" Pictures.

    Posting the picture of the bears in Alaska and the carbine reminded me of this. We did this thread three or four years ago, but I thought it time again. Post your favorite "M1icon Carbine in the wild" pictures.

    These first ones are my favorite, since my dad carried a carbine on Iwo Jima

    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.

Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...

    MORE:

    Churchill and Ike. Churchill, by the way was a highly decorated combat vet, starting in 1893 in Africa, Sudan, South Africa, and the Western Front in WWI. He should have earned the Victoria Cross (equivalent to the Medal of Honor) for his actions in S> Africa, but was blocked by political enemies..

    Vietnam Carbine pics: The first one is Gulf War I's "Stormin Norman" Schwarzkopf as a young officer in Vietnam in 1966. He earned three Silver Stars, a Bronze Star, and a Purple Heart in his 4 years there.

    This one did some time in Israel too.
