    New site on Enfield Resource, for repro leather work

    Just announcing I've put up a new listing on Enfield Resource.com, for repro military leather work, including great stuff for all sniper scope cups of many variations. Looks good and should be a godsend to collectors and restorers.

    John Moore has certainly re-learned an almost lost art or skill. I showed a bit of his leatherwork to one of the old 'equipment repairers' (another long lost REME trade) and he was quite astounded at the quality

    Jon's work is primo and the extent he goes to in duplicating even the leather texture and grain is unbelievalbe. I've seen a fair bit of his work and have nothing but praise for the quality of material and workmanship.
    Glad he decided to stay in the UKicon...

    I can vouch for Jon's handi-work as he made up a couple of scope tin straps and a Lyman Alaskan scope cover set for me a few months back. Top notch work. He is a true craftsman.

    I know his work, and he used to be a re-enactor so he knows what's what.
