    Hand Selected - Just for You!

    Here's an ammo listing that I received in an email from GB yesterday.

    These listings are trending with firearm enthusiasts like you.

    My brother had a few boxes of this he bought at a show in CA several years ago at $15 per box. At that time S&B was still around $10. Look what it would be worth now! - Bob

    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 ...

    Been "playing" with my septic tank the past couple days - so a bit behind on the forum. Yep, hard to understand those prices! I now have all (3) of those on my watch list - wonder which one will sell first? Also, am watching his Gatling Gun magazine. It reminds me of a "hardback" 30 rounder. - Bob

    About 5 or 6 years ago a couple boxes of that fake LC carbine were given to a guy who gave it to another guy who gave it to a friend, who gave it to me
    Scared to shoot it.... I found a guy out at our rifle club who shot it up through his Ruger BlackHawk.
    Long road from China, but it was properly disposed of
    Looking back I wonder if I should have kept the boxes?

    I watched those auctions; the WRA and WCC both sold a couple weeks ago with 1 or 2 bids each. I don't think anyone has bid on the LC 52 yet - It just got relisted again. My brother shot all he had in his Inland - it worked fine. I told him what it was and he just shrugged. He's used to shooting corrosive ammo in his milsurps, and always cleans them the same day. - Bob

    Hi Jim, It's LC 71 Lot 50-196. I laugh now about picking up the wrong can that day. A 10 hour drive, and arrived home with a 50 caliber can holding a few boxes of your 45 ACP! Oops! I'm glad we were able to figure out a plan to swap out the cans. You live in a beautiful area, and I really enjoyed getting to meet you and Barb. I owe you an email - hope to get around to that one of these days. - Bob
