    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 ...

    I do have a 20 Pdr projectile, picked it up 30 years ago when moving around an impact area, recognized it right away and grabbed it. I don't have the cartridge though...

    There's a few others, my 6 Pdr, 81mm training, 60mm training, 37mm cartridge from what was the new antiaircraft guns and my complete 40mm. It's painted wrong though, I should fix that.
    Regards, Jim

    Nice ones Jim my 20pdr projie is unfired (inert) has a fake fuse which is fine by me as the driving band is untouched. Those mortar rounds are they U S Army prac ones!
    Took a full length pic of the Centurian 20Pdr case with the projie in the case there is a 303 round bottom Rt for scale it is quite a weighty piece when together.

    Now I have the color to paint my smoke round... The 81MM and 60MM are both solid cast, the bodies are unmarked. The tailfins of the 60 are marked 60mm M5 and the 81 tailfins are marked CCM. I think the pattern is the same for US or CDN but these came from our system.
