    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 ...

    It's nice to be considered a "Brain" by some. Been called a lot of things by others! It's the one thing I've never been accused of though in reality. After all, I'm in the gun trade!

    Of course, how many of YOU guys have a smokestack in the Ruhr with your name on it?

    "Brain Dead" would be more appropriate at times me thinks!

    I'll never forget the big black orderly that was taking my blood at MEPPS in Jacksonville, Florida when I enlisted in the Army. He said "Dem drill sergeants at Fort Benning be gonna have some fun wit U".

    Oh yes. One example: I got a groin pull that took forever to heal since most were afraid to go to sick call! I had a mean blond hair, blue eyed E6 who nicknamed me Limp Dick. I was just getting normal again at graduation! The truth is that I didn't find it any worse than growing up from age 10 in the crap Florida public school system. Now I'm just a 5'9" Dick.

    Sorry Brian, I'm trashing this key boar this weekend. Half the keys are sticking and I think I see some dry ice cream on a few others.

    MJ, don't take this personally, but that's crap.

    MJ1-Nice looking rifle; look forward to a range report

    Brian-very nice work, sir.
    Were you at Harmony Church or Sand hill? I was at Harmony Church. And being the only recruit from California, that automatically made me gay. 13 weeks of, "you forgot your purse," or "those boots are a lot more practical than the high-heels you're used to wearing." Yeah, that never got old....
