What's Your Addiction?

That top one is a beaut. I have a fondness for the silhouette of the N0.1 Mk.III.

It's not a sportered No.1MkIII* - it's an Australian No.6 Shortened and Lightened rifle.

I did realized the top rifle was an Australian No.6 Shortened and Lightened rifle. I personally like the No.1Mk.III profile.

That #1 HT is very nice.
Since you were talking about addicitons . . . Mine is the 1941 Johnson.
I collect mostly US arms, and also a few #1 MkIII's . . . But nothing quite as nice as that middle one in your photo.
That really is sharp.

I've read a couple of articles on the 1941 Johnson. One I'd like to have if things were a little easier down here. It'd sit up with a Bren on the top shelf of my collection (if I had either, that is) Can you post some pics?

Thanks for that, T A. It's good to see pictures of them that show the detail of the receiver- they really are a work of art!

Cheers.

Near as I can figure. Lots of small parts marked BA and such. It's stamped Indonesian 1959 7.7 and has all matching numbers including the wood which I think is Luan mahogany, Very interesting rifle and a keeper.
