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.

Wow...yes, that could be done. Lots of promise there to return a scarce rifle to service dress. Jump and grab...

I'd love to, but can't bid as live in the EU and excluded from the auction. Very frustrating.

Thought it would be of interest to someone here though, with the volley sight, and undamaged stock.

sold for 416 USD. Fair?

Very fair. Between the volleys, sliding charger head, and the rear sight there's more than what was paid in those parts alone. Everything else is a nice bonus on top.
