    The venerable SLR

    Here is a pic of my older brother Barry (Dec) whilst he was doing his RAAF basic training at Wagga Wagga mid to late 60's. He said it was pretty heavy with a full 20 round mag but he really liked shooting it, they did not get to much range time whilst learning to be aero engine fitters.

    Also my bro inlaw on his Asian holiday was originally issued an Owen which was then removed and he was re-issued with an F-1 which he said rusted quite well within 24 hours.
    He eventually ended up getting rid of the F-1 as a POS and carried an L2A1 for the remainder of his tour.
