    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 ...

    We had a different type for combat use and originally a black hornrim like USAicon. Our gas mask glasses have changed but the old ones were tough and long lasting for FIELD use only.

    BCG glasses may be an understatement. Those are some serious population control.

    A friend of mine LOVED those gas glasses for wear after he left the army. I guess he wore them until they gave up on him. Can't imagine...

    Jim- I liked the wired rimmed arm ones for shooting to keep the glasses from slipping down my nose while shooting for a long time after I retired from the military. Now I no longer need glasses after my eye surgery to correct my vision issues.
