    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 ...

    As usual Jim
    got this lot by the piece was total of 19 rifles all same 24/47 yugo, 10 with out bolts that are in crazy converted military to sporter stocks. I think if i add each little bit an piece up could sell the bolt less one for about 50 to 100 each depending on how many good parts are there. Just finished logging them all in to my ffl book.

    What is with those sporter stock Yugos? Classic recently put some up for sale, claiming the factory did it but no other stories to them I could find. They look like military rifles that were brought back in and converted judging by the presence of front sight hoods

    Well from what i can see on these rifles the company that did this reshaped the military stocks added crude cheakering an pistol cap along with flat rubber cut to shape butt plate.
    the cleaning rod hole along with swivel holes were plugged an then stained black. they all have same import mark near muzzle end. Might have been the importer who did this or exporter.
    Will find out how they sell this week end at the Scranton Pa gun show. got them priced from 200.00 down

    Picked one up from Mike yesterday, they really aren't in as bad of shape as they look. All are missing something but the handguards are about the only thing that's really hard to get. A lot of them are in M48 stocks which seems unusual but it's not unheard of.
