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.

WWII style .30 cal ammo can at 10:00 and at about 6:30, is that a hand granade

Thanks Mark, Bill I don't think that is a granade. Shouldn't the AG be on the left of the LMG? Also the rifleman has a mounted bayonet

I think he is on the left. Look at his left hand, it looks like he is cupping the end of the belt. Are you sure that is not a granade?

**frankderrico** · 03-22-2009 04:32 PM

Bill, your right. I turned my computer screen and got a much better view, yes I can see the AG feeding the belt. The pineaple looking thing could be a granade that someone dropped but looks to round to me. I'm just not sure....Frank
