    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 ...

    Ok will do!
    Im having trouble locating the acid. Is it under a certain brand name?
    I see "Bar keeper" or somethong like that has OA, but its a liquid, I want the crystals.

    My efforts of stripping, using boiling water and washing were done before Warpig mentioned the Oxalic acid so no not yet.

    Savogran 12 Oz Wood Bleach is what I have. I checked, Home depot will ship it to your local store, so will True Value. Amazon probably sells it too.

    Spoke too soon!
    In better light the stains have lightened up a little so I will repeat the process over the next couple days and see how it comes out.

    Yup, Barkeepers friend has, I think, 10% OC. May get you to where you want. If not go 100% that'll get you there in a jiffy.
