    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.

    Schipperfabrik offers a great reproduction but it's not a fake.

    A reproduction becomes a FAKE when some one sells it as an original. Many of the "fakes" out there were made as reproductions or re enactors pieces, it is the people who then sell them on that make them fakes. Unfortunatley many items made as repro's and fantasy pieces in the 60's have age to them, and grandads tales of picking them up on D Day or out of Hitlers bunker, and of course Grandad woudlnt lie woudl he!
