    Scammed on ALICE gear?

    Hello all. I just purchased a new ALICE LBE rig with suspenders, LBE belt (the good kind with the metal fastener), and canvas canteen pouch, all in almost new condition for about 30 US dollars. Did I pay too much?

    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 ...

    Probably not if NOS. Especially since you are pleased with the belt,

    I agree, same as in your other post on the same subject...this is OK as long as you're happy. This gear isn't getting more plentiful and will disappear. Now you can look for the parts you want to use it for hunting or make up a display. A simple search of pictures of troops wearing it will show you the mass of parts that were issued...
    Regards, Jim

    Why not post a few pics, please? In the UKicon you can pay £10 for a single Alice ammo pouch if good or NOS and genuine.
