    Guys,

    One thing I know for certain is this: long after we're in the ground people will be arguing this one. Take it as a learning experience. My own thought is to learn the lesson and look forward.

    On the old list, one guy said he could draw a straight line from LBH to Ia Drang. I can see his point but the actual tactical and strategic lessons are still open to interpretation. What is the lesson - never walk into an ambush laid by superior forces? Listen to your scouts, respect the intel? Don't put your enemy into a position where he has no choice but fight to the death?

    Take your pick.

    It would be nice if we could find something, say something that would save the lives of young soldiers and marines today and tomorrow.

    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 ...
