Thank you: Peter Laidler, Roger Payne, Thomas Smith

Had an enjoyable practice shoot at the Range yesterday with my rebuilt No4(T).

It made me stop and think that my pleasure was a result of the work of three forum members who generously share their knowledge and time, often without receiving due thanks.

Thank you to Peter Laidler for spending countless hours rebuilding my Telescopic sight. Thank you for charging me for what you considered to be fair time rather than time taken. Thank you for giving this scope another 60 years of service.

Thank you to Roger Payne for researching, manufacturing and supplying me one of your superb brackets. It holds a true zero.

Thank you to Thomas Smith (tbonesmith) for replacing my rusted out barrel and for ensuring that the bedding of my rifle is spot on. The rifle shoots with 1/2" MOA accuracy - unfortunately I often don't.

Whilst it is several years since Peter, Roger and Tom individually helped me, yesterday I again enjoyed the fruits of their labours. So thank you Gentlemen.

Now that warmed the cockles of my old socks.....................great to see people do appreciate good sound advice from the best site, and the best people anywhere in the Globe, who often work for nowt in partaking with that advice, and often from operational experience and knowledge about a lot of Milsurps!.........Apologies that started to sound like a Churchillian speech, all I missed out was the beaches bit ha ha!!

I couldn't have put it better Gil, well said. Milsurps goes from strength to strength, with people freely sharing a huge knowledge base of talent, while a lot of the other firearm forums seem to be sadly declining into a free for for all group trolling session...
