    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 ...

    Ever play army men when you were a kid ?
    That thing would have put my toy Tommy gun to shame.
    We would have made you use that at the Fort as a Artillery piece.

    My little town here is full of multi booth antique shops......
    I'm more surprised that you wrestled it out without breaking something than the fact you found one.
    Good Luck..

    Neat to see it double size!
    Yup, to be able to add selective-fire to a fully designed and in-production rifle with just a few simple add-on pieces is truly amazing! "Stuff" is so complicated today, that could never happen now...

    Just thought I'd follow up on this for future searches.
    This has sold for $1,750 plus $100 (woefully underestimated) shipping.

    Well hopefully I’ve given you an idea of value here. Maybe that’ll help your cause!
    For what it’s worth, I paid $800 for it at the antique mall.

    The Carbine 2X is light, wood and aluminum. The BAR 2X is not. Milled and weighs 74 pounds. It's a beast. Never had the Garandicon.
