    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 ...

    From the CBC;



    Dear Friends of The Great War Project,

    We are pleased to announce that the Great War series is coming to a television screen near you! As one of the original applicants, we wanted to send you a special invitation to make sure you don’t miss it.

    Sunday, April 8th, 8 – 10 PM ET/PT, CBC – The Great War, Part 1: Follow 14 young men and women descendants – representing a cross-section of Canadaicon – as they voyage through time to understand their ancestors’experience as soldiers and nurses at the front; from the St-Julien gas attack to the devastation of Newfoundlanders at Beaumont Hamel and the unifying of Frenchicon and English regiments at Courcelette, you will see battles come alive during recreations and dramatic story-telling. (This show will be repeated on Saturday, April 14, 10 PM ET/PT on CBC Newsworld.)

    Monday, April 9th, 7 PM, ET/PT CBC – The Great War Experience: As with real war, the 150 young volunteers chosen to participate in this project lived in an encampment and marched into the trenches to fight the battles their ancestors fought. This experiment in living history transformed many of their lives. The Great War Experience documents the relationships and bonds they developed, the hardships of living in another time and their thoughts and feelings about participating in the Great War project. (This show will be repeated on Sunday, April 15, 8 PM ET on CBC Newsworld)

    Monday, April 9th, 8 – 10 PM, PT/ET, CBC – The Great War, Part 2: Culminating on the 90th anniversary of Vimy, this final episode of The Great War presents the glory and grief of Canadian soldiers at Passchendaele, Vimy and the last 100 Days.
