    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.

    I would imagine that if they acquired 7.92mm Brens then they'd simply use the standard Inglis 7.92mm magazines. Mind you they weren't exactly short of .303 guns either.

    In all my time in Israel, I never saw or heard of a 7.62 or 7.92 Bren. I did see a .303 in a museum, but that's all. MG34s in 7.92 came from the Czechs, but no Brens or ZB26s that I know of.
