    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).

    Coincidently, I rented "Miracle at St. Anna" for Saturday night The jacket says it's about four soldiers from the 92nd in Italyicon. Cover photo shows two Thompsons, one M1icon, and one that might be a Carbine.

    The jacket on that movie touted it as the best war movie since
    saving Pvt. Ryan. I guess they didn't see When Trumpets Fade or Letters from Iwo Jima or Flyboys. Personally, after the first few minutes the best part of the movie was the hot Italianicon chick washing her clothes. But that's me.

    Not too bad a movie. Wasn't a total waste of time. You know how it is, beauty in the eye of the beholder and all that.
