    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 ...

    1911 LSA with Lithgow FTR

    Attachment 81133Attachment 81134Attachment 81135Attachment 81136Attachment 81137Attachment 81138Attachment 81139Attachment 81140

    found this 1911 LSA at the January RK gun show in springfield, mo. the buttstock indicates an FTR of 04/45. the barrel confirms with a barrel/re-barrel date of 03/45. bolt and action match, tho they have been renumbered, i suppose to coincide with Australianicon standards. i tried to take a picture of the sight spring with sports the "OA" australian mark. bore has good riflings and some darkness. saafety looks australian, too. the copper draw reinforcements are present. wonder how she got way down under? pre-WWI no1mk3s are hard to come by where i live. i wish she was original. oh well...

    Strange, all the years that I have belonged to Milsurps today is the first day I have seen this forum. Oh well, let me dive in (late for January). This rifle made me break my New Years resolution of "no new guns for 2017".

    HRA 5.7 mil M1icon Garand. It is an Anniston rebuild (A4 2-65) with a commercial stock (I assume, since there are no stamps on the stock).
