    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 ...

    That'd be a really interesting booklet - wonder if it would be possible/permissable to have it scanned so there's a digital copy available for historians and researchers?

    Great music. The land down under, where the women blow and the men chunder*......... Or is it plunder? My kind of place

    Did you start in the RE's Muffer? That looks like RE or assault pioneer stuff. Well beyond my pay grade.

    The Soldiers Handbook wasn't just issued to the Nasho's as a Reg Recruit I were issued it at Kapooka on basic trg, not a bad read for a newby actually.
