    TANKS "FIGHTING MEN" 1943

    This was an unusual film to make in 1943 in the middle of WW2 in the U.S admitting the weak links of the tank.

    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 ...

    By 1943 everybody on both sides knew everything there was to know about the other side's kit.
    "TANKS "FIGHTING MEN" 1943" was actually called Fighting Men: Crack That Tank was made in 1943 by the U.S Dept. of Defense to train the PBI.
    Spelling and Grammar count!
