    1 April 2025 Garandicon Picture of the Day - April 1 has been associated with various historical events, including the establishment of the U.S. House of Representatives in 1789 and the formation of the Royal Air Force in 1918. Additionally, it is widely recognized as April Fools' Day, a day for playing practical jokes and hoaxes, with origins that remain somewhat mysterious but may date back to the 16th century.

    I thought this would get at least one comment - next time I will make it left handed

    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.

    That A.I. answer was the same as most of their answers, right out of the world. If you note, Nick Oetken was navy then army then MP so that would account for his scattering of thoughts.
