    17-4-11 Garand Pictureof the Day - SANHS

    Todays photos are a submission of Bob Seijasicon

    These rifles are located at the Springfield Armory National Historic site



    Here's a pair that would be educational side-by-side: The First 80 or The Model Shop Guns built 1933-35 and the first mass production serial built 1937. 81 was not the first gun finished because it reportedly failed its test firings, the first gun actually completed was #87.

    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 ...

    Actually, #80 is mine and the photo of 80 and 81 in the SANHS files was taken by me way back when.
    Real men measure once and cut.

    Would a well put together photo essay of #80 be possible Bob?
