    It's not for the military. It's for shooting...

    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 ...

    I wouldn't pass up a decent opportunity to have a 5,7 Johnson carbine. One of his last commercial developments. Would have been a very early small bore PDW in M2 guise.

    In reality it was developed for the military and tested by them. It was reject and he turned to the commercial side to make money with it. He would convert USGI carbines and later sold conversion kits as well as loaded ammunition and them brass and dies for reloading. I know of one dealer who had one in stock for almost two years with ammo and dies. He had to lower the price four times before it sold and he lost money when he let it go to another dealer in a trade.
