    Holy blizzard, Batman!

    We got about 6 inches of snow overnight and it's still coming down.

    Ahhhhh, spring in northern Alberta.

    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 ...

    Two months? Not lately! LOL.

    At least it's better than when I lived in the Arctic. 10 months of winter and 2 months of lousy snowmobiling.

    We got a freak storm here in Tehachapi that has left about 6 to 8 inches. People can not drive in snow! The worst are those that live in it! Crazy

    It's fun driving in the snow and ice. I just put my truck in 4x4 and drift around like I'm Colin McRae.

    But then again, I have lived here all my life so my idea of "fun" may not translate for others.

    Well, I do also enjoy getting stuck in 3 feet of powder snow, on the side of a mountain, between spruce trees, at 8000 ft above sea level, at -10C, so you may be on to something there!
