    No, you need the one for Franglais here!
    “There are invisible rulers who control the destinies of millions. It is not generally realized to what extent the words and actions of our most influential public men are dictated by shrewd persons operating behind the scenes.”

    Edward Bernays, 1928

    Much changes, much remains the same.

    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 ...

Canadien, mais je pense que ce c'est aussi improbable: cet division a retourne a G.B. avec le pluspart de leurs equipages! Le SMLE a ete aussi porter a Dieppe en 1942. C'est presque toute qu'on peut dire...or something like that.

LEMS was also wearing a Dieppe in 1942. This is almost all that can be said ... or something like that..
    Note: As an example, to translate from Germanicon to English, you would click the English while viewing the translation pop-up menu and the original thread. Note: You may have to click twice on some browsers to activate Google Translate, then look at the top area of your browser for the small Google Translate menu bar, so you can switch back to the Show Original language presentation of the thread page.
