    Anyone in N.C. with front sight puller?

    Have a stubborn "R" marked front sight on my Underwood that I'd like to get off and tapping hard with hand tools didn't budge it. Not sure even the sight puller will do it but would like to try. Just wondering if anyone in the central NC area (I live near Lexington) would be willing to have a go at it?

    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 ...

    Oh! No! Another Bubba'ized carbine!
    When they tell you to behave, they always forget to specify whether to behave well or badly!

    Might be staked in place. Which side did you smack? Left to right is the way it should be done.
    Spelling and Grammar count!
