Yes, all legit. You may recognise the set-up from Matt's You Tube clip. (I was standing behind him, feeding him some of the info) The top two rifles are mine. I've really gotta get off my butt and do a pictorial for Badger to put in the Library. Been promising for ages...

Hey Son, that's a good action shot of El-Shonko Film Productions in action!

Cheers,

You're welcome to borrow my Omark if you want to do a pictorial on something different.

Mate, I'm not sure how to categorise your Omark. Really it's an experimental trial prototype. Being that it was set up by the Lithgow factory, (and SAF Lithgow made barrels for them too) and has an SAF serial number, I'd imagine it would have to come into the "Lee Enfield" lineage as a second cousin, once removed.

If you want to generate some discussion, start a thread with some pics of the markings and let's see if anyone has heard of them. I'm keen to pursue any info we can get, even to do a posting for the Library..... Other than confirmation that some units kept a few Omarks for marksmanship practice and competition, I've not found anything!

I'm hoping connections I'll make in my new job may lead to more info on it and other things with question marks hanging over them.

Obviously I'll have to do something erstwhile to earn some brownie points to get access.

There are no special requirements ...

The Member's Showcase Forum is deliberately designed to be "Reply Only" and permits all members to respond to any existing thread, but not create new ones. It helps bring order to the natural chaos one sees with these on-line bulletin boards that tend to repeat the same material over and over and over and over again, because most folks have no idea how (or are too lazy) to use the search function.

The primary intent of this forum is to permit members to send us photo montages of their collections so we can set up an on-line album for them to show everyone their collections. It also serves as a primary area for our "Monthly Purchases" feature thread. By using the "Reply Only" format, it's much easier to follow and maintain a consistent and uniform approach to presenting information.

How to use "The Members Showcase" (click here).

Here's a typical album of pics sent to us, showing how the entry is setup to maintain a uniform and consistent presentation, including responses from other members.

If you'd like to start a thread in the Lee Enfield forums you could do that, or if you'd like us to set up a personal album as described above for your own general use, then follow the instructions in the first link and we'd be happy to do so....

Regards,
Badger
