    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).

    Sleeves up, sleeves down, sleeves half-way...even the Staff Sergeant doesn't know how he wants his sleeves. My Sgt. Mjr. would have blown a gasket if we looked like that.

    How about mechanics doing maneuvers before getting to work in the morning? Things are a tad more relaxed on the flight line and in the hangars when you know you will be up to your ears in soot and grease within minutes of starting for the day. Though I do wonder about the guys in 1405s (tan). Could be the monthly report order didn't contain the uniform of the day.
