Well Brian, I've certainly learned a LOT from listening to you, Lance, Lee Enfield and many others, plus reading everything Peter and Ian have written, but on my best day, I'm not sure I'll ever get to the levels of subtle detail and depth of knowledge you guys possess. :thup:
Anyway, thanks for passing on what you can to the young collectors, because it does help them not get sandbagged and disappointed with fakes, plus if we don't encourage, educate and get the new guys excited with the enjoyment of owning these old pieces of history, our hobby will gradually fade away. Then we'll have nobody to talk to except our wives ... :lol:
Regards,
Doug
