    Beaumont Vitali chargers

    Been thinking about getting a Dutch Beaumont Vitali rifle . But if I do of course I would need or want some ammo chargers for it . Does anyone know were some could be had ? I remember several years back hearing a few people were making them , one here in US and a guy in Italyicon but I can't remember their names or find the info .

    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 ...

    They are not difficult to make. I made some out of an old oil tin, pallet wood and sticky back plastic. Sorry, you don't need the sticky back plastic. See photos.

    Thanks for the pictures !! I was thinking about maybe making some but hadn't seen good enough pictures . Thought about maybe buying one if not to crazy priced and then use it for measurement . Do you got the measurement or is it just trial and error ?
