This one came from Firearms Outlet in TO. I asked the guy over the phone for the serial number. He said we don't give serial numbers out. I started to tell him why I needed it and he hung up. Usually...
Hello Jim
H.W. Brown was the director of Contracts. I am linking a page that references H.W. Brown. Medical supplies for the CEF and how the suppliers were as corrupt as they are today with regard...

Its great that you have shot them! Amazing condition!!! I am the guy that buys them, babies them. Adorns them with all the accessories (holsters,mag pouches,pistol belts) and never shoots them. Then...
Lately I have purchased several rifles that were advertised as sub moa, I purchased a Maple Ridge Armoury Renegade in hopes of using up some 223/556. 19 inch barrel. 55 and 62 grain green tips were...

Our D-day was liberation for many. We will not forget! F-the other news.
I believe factory worker skit in Monty Pythons "Meaning of Life" sums it up nicely.
Well said Jim! Not one good pic with the real details.
I use the Norinco 1911A1 at the range,older version with very little stamping. Nighthawk springs except for the original 1911 mainspring housing I used for the lanyard ring look. Repro grips and some...

Ammo seems to be an issue. That rifle should be much better at 200. IMO. Here is something useful and I am no expert. No4 T's are the bread and butter of the Lee Enfield forum. Not one reply in 6...

That is the magic that keeps us going into the same old shops day after day. I love to see these stories, gives us hope!
Fresh water. I never thought about it before as it pertains to the Pacific. Was there desalination on ships at that time. I could Google it,but this forum and the replies are much more interesting,
How would you know it was a PPCLI rifle? I have a '14 matching receiver, barrel, rear sight. Its been inspected 4 times. 27,33 35.37. Brass disk has 688. No C/|\s
Amazing find! Sure pays off to frequent the local haunts, as you never know what comes through the door on any given day. Well Done!
What is the back up (iron) sight on the M4. Looks interesting. Very nicely kitted out.
I was reading a recent thread on this forum and got my HBAR out to look at something. Hopefully we do not end up with a ban here as well. Thought I would post some pics. I have not ever fired it....

I also remember bringing in a Cooey 22 to high school machine shop and refinishing the all the parts and stock. We were given marks for anything we restored on the side. Our shop teacher was a big...
Merlin engines! Is there anything they can't do?
