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.

Sold mine a few months ago for $1600 Canadian icon

. All matching numbers, wood almost pristine, excellent barrel. Was asking $2000 and had no bites til I moved on the price.

I paid $2000 for mine and it has a very tight mint bore. Possibly a bit much, but i did not have one at the time.

It just occurred to me that you guys talking about your ShtLE Mk V...should be showing us at the same time. We'd love to see more of these...

Talking of Mk5's....... Does anyone have one of the 18 shilling conversions from a Mk3? The rear sight mounting is brazed on to the body and then machined in situ and very difficult to tell BUT you can just see the feint outline of the braze. They usually have the original barrel with the rearsight holes visible.
