Or is being a gun collector of Enfields a bit like being a Police sniper......., where it's really about what you call yourself. I notice in my local newspaper that there is a bit of jumping up and down because the Dept. of Transport people are calling themselves 'Traffic Officers'. A self instituted title that Traffic PC's used to call themselves. Oh, don't get me going this early on a Saturday morning with a busy range day tomorrow too.............
