    New Acquisition

    A 1943 Long Branch.



    From the bottom to the top:

    1. 1943 Mk I* Long Branch (2 groove)
    2. 1944 Mk I BSA (ex Frenchicon, 5 groove)
    3. 1942 Mk I* Savage with an early sight protector (2 groove)
    4. 1955 Mk II Fazakerley (5 groove)

    And, in the corner is a 1923 No. 1, Mk III SMLE, with the magazine cutoff. I did experiment with a Parker Hale rear sight on the Savage, but couldn't get the sight aligned. A Mk III ladder sight worked much better.

    Weather permitting, I'll get these to the range this weekend.
