    I've got a HUGE collection of Enfields JSS................ Now here's an idea......... What about getting all of the UKicon pommy forumers together one weekday or even a Saturday in the Autumn or Winter and come and see them, all live and in the flesh. If you're well organised, I can even arrange lunch in our mess. Make it a group of 15 or so and, well, feast your eyes. While were not allowed to 'charge' as such, but I'd appreciate a small donation from one and all when you leave

    On that basis, I'd say that 20 or 30 was a reasonable collection..........

    Thank you gentlemen for taking the time to post such thoughtful, interesting and helpful replies. Some wise advice too I think.
    Very much appreciated.

    Peter,
    That's sounds like a great idea. I guess many forummers are LERA or HBSA so have possibly already seen it. Already have one seasoned collector who is keen to see it again if the opportunity arises!.
    A new thread perhaps, if permissible, for this purpose.

    jss
