Lance, thank you for giving me some closure on the story of my rifle. I have been trying to puzzle it out for quite some time. I've only the one rifle, and not many opportunities to examine others,...

Dear Lance et al.,
Your answer to the question about the significance of the number 1948 is a little unclear to me. Do the similarity of the markings place my rifle among the batch of 2,000 built...

I briefly described the BSA/PH conversion which I believe is a close relation of Lance's BSA/PH in the post above this. Here are some photos which should help the comparison. I have many more,...

Dear Lance et al.,
I believe I have a rifle very close to the BSA/Parker Hale conversion you have described above. It is a BSA Sht LE III, 1915, with the III crossed out with two lines and No 2 IV*...

I'm 62 and a little shaky so I shoot off the bench (gave up 50 yd. free pistol shooting a while ago - got too discouraging). I have only a 100 yard range. This is a five shot group w/a 1943 M 39...

Thanks to all the people who helped me with this research so far.
I am paraphrasing what I learned from a couple of collectors overseas who have pieced together the story on these Ajack 4x90 scopes...

Dear RayG, This may be a little late, but I have been occupied and not on the site very much. I have two loads that are capable of 1" groups from my Ross
model of 1910. I sometimes shoot a flyer,...

As far as my books tell me, the Finns received a partial order of 500 Ajack 4x90 scopes from Jackenroll, in Germany. With these scopes they built small quantities of the sniper rifle model M /39 -...

I have used for years a product called "Fiebing's Leather Dye", in various shades of brown. It is available through the mail from Tandy Leather, and it
gives a lovely deep color to the wood. You can...

I forgot to mention - that is 10 shots, off a rest, 100 yards, no wind. I called the two wide shots, the closer third one, well, stuff happens...

This target is shot at 100 yards with Parker Hale aperture sightson a No.4 Mk.II FTR'ed Fazackerly The sights cost as much as the rifle but well worth it. This is 10 shots, perfect shooting...

Hooo Boy!!! After looking on the web for almost two years I finally got a line
on a copy of Volume 1, Drei Linien - die Gewehre Mosin-Nagant, by Karl- Heinz Wrobel
and bought it from a...

I'd pick a #4 Mk.1 (T) and be very happy with that.

How to do it?
Do any of you more experienced Enfield gurus know the proper way to lace up a leather cheekpiece on a Pattern 1914 Mk I* W(T)A (basically a 1914 .303
Enfield made by Winchester &...

The model 27 and 28 rifles have a very odd front sight design - - the blade
dovetaii is transverse but is carried in a longitudinal sight holder that slides out to the front when its setscrew is...

I love the Swiss rifles, have a good assortment, and shoot most of them. For the K 31 I am usually expecting to shoot a 2" group or better at 100 yards, not counting first shot w/cold barrel....

The Hornady 7th Ed. has loads for both .308 and .312 barrels/bullets. It is still a good idea to slug your barrel (I suspect a .31 cal round ball would work pretty well but haven't tried it yet). I...

Dear coffeebean, if you grab a Ross, particularly a 1910, you won't regret it. Mine shoots GREAT, and I have its baby brother, a .22 straight pull Ross cadet. It is a light little thing but at 100...

RedBaron, do you have a Cooey (?) Canadian rear sight such as you would find on a 1910 Ross rifle? I have one that came with my 2A .22 rifle and it is a very fine sight indeed. Numrich gun parts has...

Hello All, from a newbie to this forum.
I'm a collector of Swiss, Finnish and British rifles, and any sniper rifles I can get my hands on. Everything is a shooter, and I like to take three or four...
