    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 ...

    Yeah good luck with that, it won't take them long to figure who is not home and start their junket on people, wishful thinking only thing now is that perhaps allot of homes may be occupied and getting inside well you might find yourself looking down the hole of a 12 Ga shotty or 45 ACP 1911 both will make your day very unpleasant...........

    With the amount of Firearms holders now at home, only a Kamikaze pilot would try anything.
    They will sadly, always try to find a way to rob though............be ready!

    The good thing in the dark you pretty much know where everything is that may inpede your progress they dont, I have stuff squrilled in strategic spots to make their time inside my home an unpleasant experience and always remember when questioned by the authorities "You were in fear of your life." that usually scuppers excessive force. My rule is, you come into my home uninvited, your not my friend and you have ill intent and thats that.

    Having been broken into for a 3rd time so I am over it if I catch the next lot well it wont be pretty, still no sign of the M/cycle.
    My friend was telling me be wary @3 months after the break in as they normally come back to get the replacements after the insurance has paid out well no bike as they wont insure dirt bikes so my son has done $4K cold anyway the cameras, alarms and floodlights work well we will see where it will go but remember guys 3 months......

    Personally, I suspect the average criminal is scared *hitless by this and afraid to leave their home.

    Maybe a way to keep the bastards at bay. Whip up a sign that looks official and post around your home.

    Good one!

    Maybe I'm giving criminals to much credit but they have to figure everyone is home with guns and enough bleach and paper towels to clean up the scene.
