All those gas traps...

And to think, back then they were just another rifle and a heavy one at that!

a heavy one

Well, as I recall the ten+ lb rifles we handled weren't all that bad, specially later when we got into shape. Specially after a couple of years time. NOW on the other hand, we'd prefer a six- lb carbine I think... NOW they're heavy.

Look at the fabulous fiddle-back in the stock nearest the camera!

Makes for an attractive rifle stock. Nice...
