    How Vintage?

    Charlies Surplus has these 4 20rd LC-2 mag pouces. As well as O.D. Greed nylon buttpacks. I am very disinterested in Rothko products. But they say these items are genuine new production made by Palmer. Anyone know anything about these items or Palmer?

    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.

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 ...

    Got my order from Charlies. The pouches and but packs look very good. I managed to get a patrol bag (the green light weight sleeping bag from the military sleep system) into that fanny pack! What a great piece of gear.

    So I have a question about these mag pouches. There is a strap and clip that hangs off the top of the pouches. What is that for? I would hate to cut it off only to find that I need it later.

    The strap and clip are for attaching it properly to your LCE. Don't cut it off.

    Hey Brian. Where and how you attach it to the H harness? Got a link with pics? Also, I am fixing to buy 15 of your mags.

    I don't have any of the old canvas "H" suspenders here. I used a couple of the nylon 20 round pouches on nylon suspenders in the early 1980's. They all have "D" rings on the front of the suspenders if memory serves but i could be wrong. Once you attach the pouch to your pistol belt, you just adjust and snap the straps in place to keep the pouches supported and in place. Later, the suspenders attached directly to the standard 30 round nylon pouches.

    Google LC1 and LC2 Load Carrying Equipment. All the info you need to assemble your kit is there.
