    Books on snipers experience with the No4T........trying to find that old thread.

    There was a thread a while back about a book with a snipers personal experience with the No4 T. Can't seem to find it. I do have Captain C. Shore's book...... any others out there?

    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 ...

    Gentlemen, we would be a lot more helpful if we actually spent the time to read the initial query more carefully:

    1. Bros quite clearly states that he has Shore's book "With Britishicon Snipers to the Reich" and does not need 3 further replies to tell him he needs what he already has

    2. Bros quite clearly states that he wants personal experience with the No. 4T. General books such as those by Gilbert and Pegler do not meet this requirement and tend to supply only a small amount of 4T information largely derived form other published material.

    As a community supplying knowledge we can and should do better than this (and my apologies for pointing this out........

    55recce.......I was laughing to myself as I was scrolling down to read the replies....I've been away for a few days. and yes your point certainly has merit.

    Anyhow thanks for admonishing the "boy's"as helpful as they are trying to be.

    In the grand scheme of things, there are not a lot of "anecdotal" books about the "business" of sniping.

    "What Ho, chaps! There we were, my observer and I, lying in our own filth for three days, potting the Hun. The red spray as the contents of a Hun skull was splashed on a wall was most gratifying." That sort of "Flashman Takes Aim" stuff?

    I doubt that many EVER put pen to paper to leave much detail about the "nitty-gritty" of the trade.

    I believe you can still get it via Amazon.

    If you get absolutely stuck for a copy PM me, I'm away from base at the moment but I'm sure I have two copies.
