    Say hello if you're in the neighborhood you never know there may be spare beer or two on offer for the price of donation to Help for Heroes.

    Cheers,

    Simon.

    P.S. I'm no longer the Lard Arse in my profile pic
    ...and with a bit of luck (i.e. IF I can find the money for petrol for the 500 mile round trip) I too will be on the Lovat Soc stall....

    I'm the good looking one of the bunch

    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 ...

    Same here, would like to see display and put a few names to some faces, but the entry is a bit steep (doesnt do much to promote the sport in my opinion), and the fuel to get there, leaves me skint.

    One of the lads in the club went last year, he said the £6 for a bacon sarnie put him off this year.

    My wife goes to gunshows with me, probably why I control my spending, you can guarantee to find her in the jewelry section if I've overspent, *** for tat she reckons.


    Now that has to be the height of carrying correctness too far, a common expression with no sexual comutation is edited, I wonder what will happen if I mention a type of bird, you know the one, tiny greyish yellow, what is it again, oh yes, a tomtit.

    The "wife at the gunshow" thing isn't always bad... mine convinced me to buy my No6 when it was offered to me at a gunshow ... But as muffet has said, them knowing you have spent can have repercussions ... at one stage we almost had as many of these as rifles! Jeez they took up some space ... good thing she took them with her...
