    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 ...

    True Charlie. Being 76 years old has something to do with it. Watching my country fall apart and being destroyed has even more. It is difficult to stay focused on a small 75 year old firearm when freedom of speech and media "Fact Checking" rules our lives. You should come out and visit the Golden State and see for yourself. Thousands of homeless bums everywhere crapping on the streets, and stealing us blind all night and nothing is ever done about it. I dare you to watch "Seattle is Dying" and realize that it is way worse all over the west coast. Liberal progressives run the state, they have an agenda, to push the middle class out and replace them with cheap imported labor and crime. Pack them into high rise slums and make them dependent on the state. People buy on line and their goods are brought and picked up off their front porches. All afternoon and all night, illegals and homeless ride around stealing stuff off the porch. In this town, over 100 Prius Toyotas have had their catalytic converters stolen right in front of their houses. Nobody does $hit about it. Yeah, I'm a curmudgeon, but you're right I should be worrying about a few 10 cent plungers and keep my mouth shut.

    No complaints from me Dave. You've more than earned your right to B!tch and I agree with all you've said.
    I figure since we lost JimF who prided himself as being called a Curmudgeon, that you a fellow Vet have earned the Throne.
    It's yours if and only if you want it. He!! I still turn to see who's yelling for me when I hear: Hey You Pr!ck !!

    I watched our local news tonight @ 6 and their still barricading our State Capital. My worries are for my kids and Grandkids. I figure if I get pushed hard enough and end up in Jail.... They still gotta feed me. But I'll be D@mned if they think their going to 'Reprogram me'.

    Hang in there Buddy,

    At age 71 I have to agree with you guys. Ohio isn't bad....yet! We had an armed demonstration outside our state Capitol building the other day and it was PEACEFUL! No trouble at all. At least most of the citizens here still have their heads on straight. I really cringe when I see the National news these days and wonder what the heck is happening to our country.
    When they tell you to behave, they always forget to specify whether to behave well or badly!

    We always wondered what the "Everyone gets a trophy" kids would be like when they grow up. Now we know. Antifa, clowns with masks.
