    Do we have any Hebrew readers with an interest in the early Israeli Army?

    G'Day Folks,

    A bit of a shotgun approach here.

    I'm trying to track down some accurate details of early Israeli Army weapon markings. I've been told several things and am not convinced the views are either accurate or correct.

    If you do read Hebrew - we're halfway there. You might be able to assist with the identification of some markings I'm interested in learning about.

    If you also happen to be a bit of a student in the Israeli Army in the early 1950's then you might just be able to set me straight on all counts immediately.

    Anyway, if you are able to help, could you please PM me?

    Many thanks in advance.

    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 was in the IDF in the 1980s, but I'd be happy to try to help.
