    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.

Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...

    When you go to post, look on the area just above the "box" where you post. You will see several "choices" -- font size, type, italics, bold, understand, etc. Click on what you want and go from there. You see your choices as to font, type and size "surround" what you're trying to type. Keep your post within those "boundaries".

    P.S.: If you use the "Quick Reply" forum below, your choices will be reduced greatly.

    102 m1903A4's were produced in Feb 43 however only 2 were shipped (most probably due to the lack of scopes).

    In March 43 both production and shipments jumped substantially.

    There is a chart in the back of Clark Campbell's "The '03 Springfield Era" (2003) that is a reproduction of an original document which details Remington's production and shipments of 03's, A3's and A4's.

    Regards,

    Jim

    one quick way to get bigger text is to highlight the message with a left click cursor drag and then click on the 'B' for 'bigger'

    The B is for BOLD not bigger. The font size is still the same. Use sizes instead.
