    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 ...

    My AR is a dedicated.22lr build. The UKicon's legal requirements mean semi automatic is limited to a max of .22 WMR, so a build by Guncraft ltd is the way to go for me.

    These are absolutely first rate quality builds.

    My 'ideal', would be an AR15 HBAR build in 5.56mm, with a .22WMR bolt group and barrel, so I can swap between the two.

    If that doesn't come off, then a Car15 build in .22WMR.

    I had one as well, that way you can zero it correctly to the set up.

    I don't think we've actually had a 100° day this year? But with our coastal 85%+ humidity, every day is 105°+ on the heat index...

    We've had 40c twice this year and in the 30's most days for weeks on end now....

    The difference is you chaps have Aircon, we just can't get away from the bloody heat!

    Roll on the Autumn I say ...

    We are generous people. You can keep it
    I haven't been shooting with my rifles since the end of May approximately.
    The pit where we have the range is so outrageously hot, that I don't even dream of going there this year.
    I'll catch up in autumn.
