Label is interesting.

Useful photo that. He must have been close to the minimum height. Camouflage trousers or is that photo editing? Well used scope scope and rifle, looks like the cheekrest has been set back, JG...

That's what I was referring to.



Indeed.

All true Peter, but only -------s forget where they got read/got that knowledge in the first place. Egos being what they are, it does tend to happen though. ;)

One good thing about the Net is...

What I was getting at was that since apartheid was insupportable, at least in the context of southern Africa, they might have been better off consolidating themselves into a smaller state that...

Have often thought that of all people it's the Boers who should have seen it coming. That part of the rest of the world which actually gave a damn probably knew quite well. The usual suspects were...

At least one Enfield examiner's mark there.

I see they can't ship bayonets out of the UK; I would have thought Nanny would be keen to have them leave. :rolleyes:

And the reality of course is that the victory was due first of all to signals intelligence and secondly to pure luck in that Nagumo did not heed the advice to immediately launch against the detected...

This would have been the niece of the great-grandson then?

I remember when that was found Sapper. I believe there was article in the Canadian Geographical Journal(?) at the time.

There's a lot of those drums and perhaps jerry cans as well on some island in the northwest Pacific. Evidence of long range German flights to Japan during the war. I forget which island, but photos...

Is this "Stewards" you mention a successor to J.H. Steward? I thought the family closed that firm down finally in the 1970s?

Pity LB didn't make the H barrel, and a pity they weren't adopted as standard.

I was thinking of the scope Case, No.8 rather than the old three draw telescopes, except for the reference to the similar cases made for the C67 scope and the Telescope, Sniper's, Observing by R.E.L....

Never understood why they didn't put the sling loops on the case bottom half only so that the lid could be opened without fiddling with the sling. The orientation was wrong as well which was...

Does anyone recognize these marks on the butt marking disc of a M-H target rifle by Alex. Martin?
