    OOPs I did it again!

    I am NOW OFFICIALLY a M1icon carbine addict. I just got my second carbine in less than 6 months.
    I found the long lost, “Brother from a different Mother”, mate to my IBM. This is a 3.9mil IBM, non-dated IBM barrel, no import marks (except the “FAT##” stamp on the stock), and also has “AO” stamped under the S/N. I traded my tricked out Colt M4 Ops 22lr for it. So far it looks in good shape except it has more Inland parts than IBM.
    I will get pics up soon, having issues with my camera.

    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 ...

    Only two? You don't have enough to ever get the wife upset yet. Two leads to four, then to eight, etc. I'm sure someone here tried to warn you.

    Green Bay Packers, Manchester United, Vancouver Canucks and the Saskatchewan Roughriders...who could ask for anything more?
    Why use a 50 pound bomb when a 500 pound bomb will do?

    Is there a monetary value to your Packer ownership? Or is it just bragging rights? Always wondered how a city owned team worked.
