    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 ...

    Ontario Knife MK3 Navy knife 1960.

    Not highly desirable, they run between $60-$90

    Well, I want one now. Didn't know they existed until this morning. A bit on the pricey side for me at the moment.

    Those appeared within our system in the '80's as a "Knife, spark free" for use in current demolitions. One of the few we could use to cut C4 or DM12 at the time. Only the Engineers seemed to have source though...

    Thanks all for the info. Now I need to find one. Anyone know where to look ?? I found my Mark I on e-bay. I did my service on a submarine, USS SEA ROBIN SS-407 so didn't have to cut any C-4.
    TIA
