The Green Meanie

I'm sure our fellow Milsurper won't mind me using the forum to praise his latest work....

Chosenman has followed 'The British Sniper' with 'The Green Meanie' - the history of the L96

As we have said in the past - 'Not quite an Enfield, but a worthy successor to the L42'

Its a superbly produced and researched book that hasn't been put on the bookshelf since it arrived 2 weeks ago - I can thoroughly recommend it to anyone who has even a passing interest in the L96

Well done Steve!

I can second that, not all the way through yet but a great read so far! Now ifonly he would do the same treatment to the L42A1, and maybe the No.4(t).

Well done Steve!

I couldn't agree more with Waco16; a fantastic read......dare I ask "management" if the time is right for a sub forum for AI's to go alongside the Parker_Hale Sub Forum?

He already did a book on the L42A1 and it is good.

I did a chapter on the L42 in The British Sniper, iv not attempted a book on that particular rifle yet. Hopefully if The Green Meanie goes well that will be the next challenge.

Well there is an incentive for us all to get the Green Meenie sold nice and quick! IMHO
