    Cleaning my shooting Iron's

    My wife bought some of these glad food container's the other day, and they looked just the right size to let my 45 and luger soak in for a while. It also works great when you break them down for cleaning. Easy to keep up with all your parts plus easy to clean up. Just a thought. lboos.

    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've been using those things too Louis. Especially when working on M1icon carbine trigger assemblies to catch those pesky springs!

    You're correct that it makes cleanup easier too.

    i use them as well, they are great when refinishing , i can keep gun parts from one gun in the same place, and not mix them up with other guns, lable them and store them in a locker if the project is a long one, and always find it when its time to assemble.
    lady that lives next door to me, gives me a bag of them about 3 times a year...love em.
