    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 ...

    Jim sounds like a well rounded guy to me

    I have collected many things in my life and I tend to be extraordinarily interested in something, learn everything I can about it and then move on to something else. It makes a situation where you will never lack something to do. I have friends who play golf, that's it. Never read a book, shoot anything or discuss anything. About as interesting as a shop vise. I'm sadly down to three pinballs, and repair and collect watches too. I learned how to FIX pinballs when I owned dozens, that's a valuable skill too. I have hundreds of books almost all about history and war, so that's there to do also. Hollinger's military vehicles is very interesting. But they do take up space. One of my friends has about 7 or 8 vintage Sportsters, ranging from Mark Brelsford's factory TT bike to a '64 he bought new. He also has 3 32s, one a Victoria, one a roadster and the last a tudor with FI Corvette and Jaguar running gear. Oh and a '67 Corvette big block roadster with 28K original miles. And then some classic cars. I picked up my bad habits from these guys. Another friend has over 700 pinball machines, he's serious about it.

    last one

    I ordered a underwood for my 1st carbine got confirmation and then told out of stock.
    called after hours and Melody answered and changed to npm and the next day my card is charged and they are out so I'm the guy who is to blame.
    special thanks to Melody and
    CMPicon for doing right by me and
    and hope they get some more
    carbines cause I'm already feel-
    light headed.
    rifles,pistols,bayonets,knifes,ammo,cards,diecast
    I'm surprised I'm still happily married.

    Awe shucks! I realy wanted to pick up another racker to make into an M1A1icon (repro stock) to go with my Inland. I had to choose, however, between a second carbine, and finishing my retro AR project, a semi auto XM177E2 (which I just did). I carried one for awhile as an LE trunk weapon. I also carried a GAU-5/P in the AF reserves as an SP.

    Oh well, I am VERY happy with my awesome shooting CMPicon racker with its 1+ ME!!!!!

    Great point, this also has resulted in the drastic price change in everything they sell, save Garands and Carbines.
