    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 only knew Kari a little over a year before his death, but what a year. In that short time, he became a good friend, and our conversations were long and frequent. Kari could discuss motorcycle engines, poetry, ballistics, and philosophy with equal ease. His funeral was packed with people— an indication of a life well lived.

    An avid motorcyclist, Kari said once that with riding motorcycles so with life: “You always have more traction than you think.”

    He had a lot of thing going on a large Triumph and BMW dealership. Poetry clubs and his collection of books covering Swissicon marksmanship and firearms from the 1700 to today covering three walls in his den.

    A collection of reloading equipment from the 1900 to today. There is an annual ride from San Jose CA. to the seaside attended by a hundred people every year so far.
