    Luck shot

    I guess the 1905 sight isn't completely useless in combat. I wish there was a way to know the actual range.

    LONGEST SHOT

    In Africa a group of Germans walked in plain sight across a valley thinking they were out of range. Ehlers borrowed an ’03 and set the leaf for 1500 yards. He fired. The Germanicon rolled down the hill.

    “Just a lucky shot I think,” he says.

    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).
