    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.

    Those are the correct ones, I have one in collection, also like new, also due to an inexplicable stores accounting error.

    They did get their pound of flesh on release though, as I had to write up phantom LSR's (lost stores reports) for the 4 Gerber multi tools I was allegedly issued.

    I asked the supply tech "If I had 1 Gerber on my docs and I came and asked for several more would you issue them to me?" He said: "Of course not, you are not entitled to 1" to which I asked, "How could I possibly get 4 issued to me then?"

    I got fish kisses and shoved a series of blank forms to fill out...

    Give'th with one hand, Take'th with the other.

    Properly kitted out, and judging by the number of open slots in front of your sight, you and I are of similar height, or at least shoot with the same eye relief and stock settings.

    Other odds and sods, A Cadex fold down front grip was issued and attached in late 2006-07, I hated them and as a M203 gunner never used it. Inside the pistol grip there was a small clip in AA battery holder for spares, it was black plastic and may have been sourced from Cadex as well.

    More UFI, the front Triad rail mount was installed flipped forward for use with the M203, as the launcher sight got in the way. Yours is correct as installed without M203.

    Good looking rifle, one of these days I will have to drop the $4-5K and pick up a Colt Canadaicon C7 and C8 for nostalgia.

    I have those here. The recruits seem to be unable to hold on to them...you could track a platoon by the Gerber tools lying along the trail. I could have sent them and had some left.

    I wouldn't mind buying one if you'd are to interested in moving one along. I find the current run of Gerber multi-tools has degraded in quality, and it would be nice to have one of nostalgia. Currently I have switched to a Leatherman Wave as my EDC pack tool, it's been good.

    Drop me a PM if you want to get rid of one.

    Michael, you get to have your pick, the "SENT - CLP" with the white lid that claims made in Montreal or the "Break-Free" bottle that is Made in the USAicon. Either one is correct for a C7/C8 as the bottles would be often misplaced and replacements came from whatever was in the CQMS bin at the time.

    Try and get a Colt Delta 223 target with scope,mount, leather black sling and aluminum case to carry it in. They made two kinds, AR15A2/M16A2 style and C7 style. Didn't make many of them at the time. Then all you need is the cdn plastic and
    scope. I have both.
