New Replacement Barrels for .303's

[Peter Laidler]

Mmmmmmmm........! A bit like curing your oily smoky and rattly worn out engine with a new set of rings. You experts certainly know how to make it sound so simple. I never really understood why it took 3 years plus another 2 to train us

I never really understood why it took 3 years plus another 2 to train us

I often wondered why when serving my Apprenticship, when I look at lads who are "Engineers" in my job who have had minimal workshop training it does ring home, you can spot them a mile off when handling tools...... as for basics, totally lost.

Certainly rung home on a few courses I've done recently, its always good to hear from others "I've done this and this, been there done that, did a few years here, there and everywhere etc" yet when the hand tools come in to play, I doubt very much they have done anything with them apart from cleaning them.
