Oh, The Memories

[Alan de Enfield]

In the same magazine W. Parr (Firearms) International is advertising "Military Rifles Bored to .410". Several flavours of Mauser from ?75-?80, SMLE & No4 for 90 and 85, and just for good measure, a .410 Bren for ?350.

But thinking back - it was probably more like the late 60's / early 70's. I was married with kids by 1980

Those were the days my friend, we thought they'd never end ..........................

Funnily enough, the year before this, a friend of my dad's had been made redundant and was selling stuff hand over fist to tide him over 'til he could find another job, and he asked my dad if I'd be interested in a semi auto Bren for £100. Unfortunately, at that time I only had a shotgun certificate so had to pass on it. I did buy a Russian semi-auto 12b shotgun off him though for £40, which I used for years. Probably the best £40 I ever spent.
