    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 ...

    A varied collection. Seconds on the Kragicon. Also have dies. What caliber is the long barreled roller chambered in? You would get along with a guy in our cas club. When we do a BAM match he brings a different antique milsurp for each of the 6 scenarios. I used a ‘96 Krag src and M96 Gustav Swedishicon Mauser 6.5x55 from 1903 in our last BAMM. Love shooting these, use lead boolits.

    the rolling block is in .43 egyptain. i have a box of ammo from old western scrounger that i bought years ago but i never fired it. all those rifles except for the model 91/41 carcano are over a 100 years old. they deserve a retirement. i've shot everything but the vetteri, the vetterli vitalli, the rolling block and the martinis. thanks all for the replies.
