    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 ...

    If one really must purchase a copy of that book and if one can only think of one place of looking on the World Wide Web, then one will just have to pay the prices being asked for the "wares" that one desires. The alternative is to do an internet search and find a cheaper copy from an alternative source.

    Cheapest one that I have seen lately was $195. I should have bought it.

    No apology necessary, Ovidio. Believe me, no one is more unhappy about this situation than us Canadians.

    Ian McCollum did a review of the book last year.



    He was in touch with a guy who had a few dozen copies of the second run of the book. McCollum included an e-mail to contact the guy in the video description.

    I sent an e-mail to the guy. The guy told me he had sold out of the second run, but was looking for printers for another run. He told me he would keep my information on file and let me know when he started the next run of the book. I have not heard from him.

    That was my experience also. I was fortunate to find what I needed through helpful members on this forum.

    Has anyone contacted Michael Leonard to see if he plans to do another run? I stand to be corrected, but I believe he still has the publishing rights.
