    Family Photos

    Hi,

    I joined the forum some time ago. This is only my second post. I collect unit marked Lugers, and collected M1icon Garands and Carbines at one time. Sadly had to liquidate them for the sake of feeding and housing my wife and myself.

    Thought that I would post a photo of the family. I no longer collect, but I do like to shoot them.

    Top is an all correct 1954 HRA that I traded for last year. The stock was in sad shape due to poor storage. Fortunately the metal survived intact. I refurbed the stock, saving the cartouches.

    Second is a Tanker .308 built by Charlie Maloney when he was still with Fulton Armory. Winchester receiver and all NM Winchester parts. It is a tack driver, and has never failed.

    Third is a now discontinued Springfield Bush rifle. It had a factory Real Tree camo stock that wasn't condusive to my eye, so I re-camo'ed it.

    Fouth is a custom build LMT M4 that I bought from a local Sheriff's deputy that he built it for inter-agency matches. He won several of them with it. Also extremely accurate.

    I hope to add a nice Nat'l Postal Meter Carbine (for sentimental reasons) to the tribe, when finances permit.

    Hope to be a long time contributing member.

    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.
