    Charlie, I love WB III. but I agree with Bob about having I and III open at the same time, you need a big desk, not an easy chair.

    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 ...

    I agree, and don't forget to check the addendum at the front of WB1, too! It's easy to overlook that. - Bob

    Might be a good idea to call and ask them to look at what they really have.
    The pictured is small and the number hard to read. I quickly ordered one and it came. It was the 6th edition. I went back to the websight photo and sure as shootin enlarged it shows a 6th edition.
    I called and they told me to send it back if I wasn't happy. Lost the shipping charges though.

    In this case, fruit loops might be more appropriate! *LOL* I like the colors better!
    When they tell you to behave, they always forget to specify whether to behave well or badly!

    That happened to me with the 7th edition. I ordered it from Midway and got in the 6th edition. But there is a bit of difference between my old one and the new one. Date on the old one is 2007 and the new one is 2009. But what is inside seems to be the same in both books.

    Received my copy today from Midway. It is in fact the 8th edition, there are 236 pages. Just glancing through it there are no significant changes. Some added figures, chapter devoted to magazines. No corrections in the few areas that I had written notes, for instance still says RSG is a Rock-ola made stock. Will go page by page when time permits.
