    Korean Garands

    Will the status of those Garands in Korea change now?

    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'll be prodding a contact at DDTC to see if the retransfer process Obama ended in September 2013 by executive order gets rescinded. I'd like to see the M1 Rifles and Carbines come home. There was a rumor that the current administration sent an Ordnance officer to supervise destruction of the rifles in Korea but I don't know how true it is because the weapons in question were owned and not loaned by the USAicon. I'd think they'd be looking at selling them and not destroying them.

    Things can certainly happen, unlike here in Canadaicon. Look at the Brady bill, how it just went away? Here once something is written, it's struck in stone. Financial sense doesn't play in at all...

    Jim, You're thinking of the so called "Assault Weapons Ban, (AWB)," which did sunset in 2004 after ten years of study which proved that those evil military look alike firearms have no bearing on firearms crime in the USAicon. The majority of the actual Brady law is still in effect including the mandatory NICS background checks we licensed dealers must perform on potential buyers. This past election is a testament to the disdain in the USA of failed liberal progressive policy. It restoreth my faith!! Brian

    The Garandicon is considered an assault weapon in my miserable locale. Need a 5 round end bloc and to chop off the bayonet lug. Blasphemy
