    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 ...

    I would think it is US Navy 20mm Mark 4 for the Oerlikon

    Could the "B" in the diamond be Bofors?

    Does this 20mm round have the explosive shell or is it just the case that you have, CINDERS?

    Just the case initially, I purchased a projectile with some other stuff so it looks complete.
    Thanks Jim I know we tried before to identify this case, I just thought to re-visit it as with new members joining every day someone may happen to twig I appreciate the responses as always.
