    I was told I had not posted lately and the forum was getting too serious. So I used the fresh looking carbines to make up a post that was not too hard to believe if you did not know better.
    I really like the part about the bolts. Now that was funny.
    Take care Chris.

    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. Brian Dick ...

    I can think of no better honor or use for your weapons. We lose 1,100 WWII vets a day across America. I served on Honor Guard duties from time to time and I value the sacrifice of all those who gave the ultimate gift. However, when you look into the eyes of a WWII widow I can always see the story of a time long ago when everything was on the line and our WWII service men and women gave a gift we can never repay.

    Between 2000 and 3000 a day now. I just read that in our local fish wrap. Every day there are a minimum of three sometimes as many as six or seven just in Bakersfield alone. Times that by how many cities that size and you can see from where that figure comes.

    Roger,
    I think most of us 'got it' and the part about the bolts was funny.

    You're the 'King of the Bubba's' -
    Funny thing is that some of the funny posts you left when you were incognito were not too far from some of the things real 'bubbas' have done!
