    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.

    Les--- Nice collection. I'll take a shot at it. Arisakaicon Type 99, Styer M95 Straight pull carbine and rifle, Swissicon K31 straight pull, Enfield No. 4 and No1 MKiii, Yugoicon M48, Sks, M91 Mosin Nagant rifle and carbine, P08 Luger, Browning Hipower. Not real sure about the Mosins but that's my best shot without looking them up. Is the No4 Enfield in 303 or converted to 45-70? Salt Flat

    Just to do a slight amount of editing, the M91 Mosin Nagants, are actually some M44 variant, and some M91/30 variant. Both would need a receiver picture to get specific. The M95s as well, one is a M95/30 (long rifle reworked into a short rifle in 8x56r), and the other is possibly a standard M95 or a M95/30 long rifle variant (again receiver pictured needed for specifics).

    OP nice to start to your collection, doesn't look to far off from what I started with.

    Interesting not too many M95s in 8x50r kicking around (I personally have two Bulgarians in that caliber but no original Austrian-Hungarian ones). If I was betting I would have guessed in 8x56r. Very nice.

    That one isnt Bulg marked, but it does have a lot of Czechicon markings!
