    I reckon I would be looking at a grand postage by surface mail minimum plus what ever the complete shell cost it would be a nasty situation on the home front for some months but hopefully my wife would let me back into the house by next winter the sheds bare as.....?
    It is so very dis-heatening to see stuff over east that they can have but here we are hammered into dust then tied up with wire at times I have thought about giving the whole lot a miss guns and all because it just costs so much to license them and maintain you FFL under the constant threat of the police rocking up and asking to check your cabinets & storage arrangements.
    Our law is such that my wife a dual license holder for all but 1 of my guns cannot have access to the safe the gun is in nor can I have that gun where our mixed guns are ones on both of our licenses that and bolts separate as well as ammo it just goes on and on I would love a Barrett in 416 Chey Tac caliber and a Garandicon but may as well try buying the moon.

    What happened to us after Port Arthur was a knee jerk reaction to an isolated situation a very sad day for Australiaicon and I am sorry for the losses but what went down orchestrated by some was wrong and unconstitutional for legal law abiding firearms owners of Australia we were the ones that also suffered through no fault of our own. Now they are on about the Adler L/A 12 gauge shotty good grief? (Sorry Badger I get pretty wound up about certain things and this is one of them)

    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.
