Happy 49th Wedding Anniversary To JimF4M1's

HAPPY 49th

Jim met a gal in 1966
On his 2nd date he took her to Val's a 50's style diner in Hayward, California
Usually busy with a line outside, he'd wait for the last seat (his seat) at the counter in front of the grill. Having his usual 1lb Papa burger, basket of fries, onion rings and old style milkshakes with 2-1/2 glasses of ice cream in the cup

Married that gal on 7-31 in 1968
Spent 68, 69 and 70 in Viet Nam
Still together today, making it 49 years

I Can't imagine what Barb has put up with. So she must be a obvious keeper or have a 'Fetish for the Curmudgeon Type'
My hat is off to (her) I mean, to the both of you....

Congratulations to your 49 years together..........

With Our Best Wishes,

Charlie and Edye

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.

Congrats to you both on a grand milestone.

I am well behind you'se guys at a paltry 24 years funny thing is my wife predicts me like a clock yet I am still bamboozled by her wiley ways as she just loves to take the pi$$ out of me at every opportunity whether friends are there or not, guess womenfolk may be considered the 8th wonder of the world with all of us men thinking "wonder what they think about?"

Congrats Jim, My wife and I just celebrated our 44th anniversary.... Our first date was December of 1972, drinking beer around a bonfire on the beach south of Santa Cruz... (Back when you could actually do things like that on California beaches before they became "protected environments" only available to look at and even walk on in certain places)

Best wishes Brother. Life is so much better when your best friend is by your side.
