    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 ...

    Apparently they don't get hot enough to cause fires...so the story goes. So, no stories about fires caused.

    I found a small dehumidifier at Home Depot that I like. It is about 8-10 inches high and collects about a cup of water at a time. I like this better than just making warm humid air. You do have to empty it about once a week, but that is not hard. Mine has been working for about 2 years now. It does have automatic shut-off when full.

    Is there anything against silica gel as I have a couple of small bags in my safes and oven dry them carefully every 3-4 weeks.

    I never needed anything, even when in the east coast of Canadaicon where the humidity was huge. I just oiled my hardware and carried on.

    I'm 15 miles off the Gulf Coast and never use anything in my safe. Our house always runs between 45% & 55% RH...
