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.

No idea how we are meant to find this, I looked it up and found nothing. Could you post a link or something perhaps?

Is the one with the original scope and mount a good buy for the auction sell price of $2700.00 , or did the byer over pay for it ?

2322 was a good buy, 2323 has a repro scope and a cheap repro bracket.....
