    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.

    I didn't do that with Thompson as mine had the regular barrel length but I did with an FNC1 once many long years ago. Went through an ambush drill and while carrying hands full of stuff after I had the rifle slung. Set something down and the butt rested on the ground so the barrel touched my neck...so I know how it feels...
    Regards, Jim

    Brilliant....... as already said, the fact that you can see the fins as well

    Being in the UKicon, so having a live 1928 will never be a reality, its a 'skin scar' I'd be proud to have

    Managed something similar with a very hot M60 once upon a time. Went to pick it up after a demo fire and my hand slid in the sweat on the handguard. I heard the sizzle from my thumb before I felt it!
