    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 ...

    This is in mid-September 1994. Going up a mountain in Val d’Aosta for training.
    What a day…
    We used the “Norwegianicon” hat for all business but official ones. There we used the Alpini hat. So, I guess the guys above were going to be sworn in. The solemn ceremony was held each month for the new echelon. Each month from a different brigade. They look very raw and not too happy. That’ll change soon. But after one month, such days were really tough on many kids.
    I guess in my time. All equipment and the looks fit.
