    My Enfield No.2 Mk1 & Mr. Peter Laidler

    I had written a question about my Enfield No.2 Mk1, in which I mentioned that the screw for the front sight was missing. Mr. Peter Laidlericon answered and stated that he would send a screw that fit. Now, he does live 'across the pond' and that's not exactly an easy swim.

    The fact that I had never met nor communicated previously with Mr. Laidler was apparently no obstacle for him. He actually sent the screws that I received this afternoon in AZ. Now that my fellow collectors, is an honorable gentleman.

    This post is simply to say "Cheers" to a man of his word and to thank him publicly. I have a new friend in the UKicon.

    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.
