    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 ...

    I since see links like an MG for these Oerlikon cases and wish I'd had my brother bring me several and links too. Not sure those guns used them though. What I WANTED was live rounds. He didn't get that part...

    I built flat nose projees to replicate some of the 2Pdr ammo I've seen. I still have one to make for my Jap 37mm as the only projee I've seen is about $375CDN and original. Just can't do it though.
    Regards, Jim

    Not normally my thing to do but in this case it's a continuance to resurrect this thread...finally after 35 or so years I found a 20 Pdr Centurion case. I'd picked up a smoke proje back in '87 in Wainwright and held it until finding this case. If not rare, then what are they? This is brass and marked the same year as the proje, '56. The projectile sat for 25 years in the same spot and then all in one week it gets refurbished and mounted in it's new home...pics.
    Regards, Jim

    Awesome Jim sometimes it takes allot of years to get what one requires they just don't grow on the back yard tree and only a fellow collector can really understand just how long it takes, hours spent on the net searching, flea markets and second hand shops plus I have a mate..........
