    May 2016 .... Shooting Don's "enfield303t" No.4 Mk1(T) ....

    What a great experience this was for all of us, the T felt so nice to shoot , such a shame Dan, didn’t fire it,
    he seemed perfectly capable of doing so. First to shoot was Don, enfield303t, this was the first time he had
    fired the T. Then Mike, my brother, had his turn. Cassidy, Don’s son is in the background and Dan is on the
    scope. Next up was my son Jim, Dan’s dad. Then it was the turn of my other son Jon and finally myself.


    May 2016 ... Sandy's great grandson (my grandson) Dan (12 years old), firing live rounds for the very first time.

    It’s pretty obvious that Dan was enjoying his shooting experience, thanks to Don and his son Cassidy.

    His great granddad would have been proud of him, such a shame that Dan never got to meet him.

    This has been a wonderful thread which has for me, become a memorial to dad, especially with the
    feelings expressed by so many members of this forum. Had it not been for enfield303t and his son
    Cassidy volunteering to visit dad with a T in the first place, this thread would not exist.

    Special thanks to them and to Badger.
