    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 was looking at the picture and I am pretty sure that there is a shovel on the back of the knapsack.

    He'll dig a bigger and quicker hole with his tin lid than with that diddy little shovel.

    If it works, it works.

    Dad was with the 40th Inf. in the Pacific, he told me he carried the pick rather than the shovel, he would break the ground with the pick and scoop it with his helmet, said he could get low fast. On Leyte one of his squad mates stole the pick, dad said a quick rifle butt to the chest facilitated quick return of the missing item.
