    Snowed in, time to dust and clean

    In another thread browningautorifleicon (BAR) mentioned it was a good time to clean up while we are snowed in...... and waiting for safe ice to fish,

    Got a sore back from snowthrowing, giving me pause on if I m up to following up on his thoughts!!

    Cheers,
    Charlie-painter777

    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.

Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...

    I knew that wasn't yours Charlie, it sure would be nice though. You wouldn't need a TV or anything. Just sit and look at your stuff.

    No, that was a rumor but it's not his. I'll have to look around and find the name again.

    it would be even more fun to help make them dirty.

    edit: I wonder if he has a room full of manual action firearms too?

    also, I've being trying to imagine how many life sentences you would get if you were caught with that collection in Australiaicon?
