    RMC Highwood Broken

    Here is a really nice RMC that came into the shop with its high wood completely broken off. It is in the clamps and should be back in service soon. More pictures to come as I complete the repairs.

    Best Regards.....Frank

    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.

    Here is some progress made on this one. This is a very wide right rail 5/16" front section, 3/16" high wood.

    Best Regards.....Frank
