    My M1 picture of the day

    Here's a pic of my late father taken on the island of Hollandia (New Guinea) in July '44. Dad was in the 503rd PIR.

    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 ...

    Thanks for sharing!

    Awesome photo and one to be preserved for many generations. If you took that photograph to a photography store, they could scan it and digitally enhance the image to make it looks really crisp and striking. I have done that with some of my photographs and it really makes a big difference. The local Wal-mart and stores like that don't really have the capability to do that work. It isn't cheap (~$30), but you do get a great digital image that will last forever. They can even colorize it if you want.
