    I'm not willing to part with anything either. I need it all to support the hobby until I capitulate...

    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 ...

    My Sten Gun MK2 - date and info?

    I have been making a mistake thinking my guns are any kind of investment. I should have been buying multiple copies of these books. I say multiple because I will be buried with the copies I have now (Gives me something to read in the afterlife).
    I see that Peter's Sten book is still available new from a specialist UKicon retailer showing in stock at £45. Don't know how many they have left though. Good to see that as enthusiasts these guys haven't jumped on the extreme profiteering bandwagon.

    I'd rather not publish the details in open forum as I wouldn't want to suddenly see copies popping up on certain auction or other sites at 10 times the price ....

    But for any members here stuck finding one drop me a pm. P.s absolutely no connection to me!
