    Mr. jmoore.

    I like Son and conceder him a good friend and was just joking with him, Son was just returning my little tiny bayonet thrust.

    Besides some day soon Sons daughter is going to go to a very expensive College and Son will have to sell off some of his Enfield's and "ALL" his Greek HXP ammunition to pay for her higher education.

    Then when his daughter gets married Son will have to sell off the rest of his Enfields and all his empty Greek HXP brass he has left to pay for her wedding.

    Mr. jmoore I "never" make any trouble.....................................just ask Badger

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping. Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...

    If I live long enough I will try the Prvi cases. I will get some as soon as I have reloaded to destruction the HXP cases I have emptied for the purpose (pic 1 below) and the full ones I have yet to even empty! (pic 2)
    Looks like insider trading to me

    Dang, so now I'm the trouble maker. OK then! So who gets to patch y'all up after bayonet sparring?

    Just out of curiousity, which one's using the SMLE and which one's using the No.4? I've got the Martini-Henry! (Nothing to on the P'53 Sergent's rifle yet...)

    Nobody needs to patch us up, mate.

    Because of his opinions on vegemiteicon, he'll never be granted a visa to come to Aus, and while saving for "higher education" the only way I'll ever afford to get within bayonet range of Mr Horton would be to swim from here to his place... and it's too cold there at the moment for that!
    Everybody have a round on me (a virtual one that is)

    Meanwhile, back at the ranch:

    RJW's out back sorting buckets of brass, wondering to whence all the help disappeared...

    The last report I received was RJW was last seen traveling south in the company of three Hobbits and a horse drawn wagon.

    Rumor has it RJW is taking all his old brass to a recycling center on the south end of the island near "The Dead Marshes" and he will then use the recycling money to buy new Prvi Partizan brass.

    One .303 Cartridge to rule them all,
    One .303 Cartridge to find them,
    One .303 Cartridge to bring them all
    and in the New Zealandicon darkness bind them.
