    My last all forged steel baby...
    Bernardelli Practical Elite in 9x21.
    A vault in the body of a Bentley!
    I've been wanting her from my time in Bernardelli...when I was too poor to buy it.
    Now I found it for 570€... It was 4.700.000 Lire at the time (1996). In € it would be 2.427, without considering the devaluation of the 24 years passed by...
    Today it would be impossible to sell as new.

    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.

    Now theres a pretty sweet heirloom of the future! Wow! Command forked out for those? We just got beer when we came in from the field. I had missed his birthday while he was there, Christmas was close, and I thought he deserved a welcome Home present, so I spent more than I probably should have, but I just thought if youre going to get him a gun, make it a special gun
