    I've been lucky to see three of the big four: Enola Gay, Bock's Car, and FiFi. Wife and I are planning a trip to next year's Osh Kosh hoping to see Doc if it's there.

    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 ...

    It is considering it spent 45 years sitting out in the Mojave desert as a bombing target for the USN......before being towed out of the desert, and then undergoing a 16 year last nut and bolt restoration back to flying condition (largely by ex-Boeing Wichita workers only a few hundred feet from where it was originally built in 1944)
    Just the thing for putting round holes in square heads.
