Return Of The Townsend Whelen .35

Gentleman,

I think this thread has gone long enough. I suggest we drop this discussion. Mr. Humble can try to sell his rifle and we can discuss other matters. I think it is turning ugly and I think we're getting away from the purpose of this forum.

I thank all members for their very frank comments.

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.

Don't you have to have really special "connections" to get in touch with J C Harrison these days? I'm thinking that it is REALLY difficult to get in touch with him anymore................................

Rick:

I didn't see your post directly above my previous post. That is probably the best advice I have seen in a while.......................

Rick, could not agree more. Sorry I forgot Harrison had passed. Also have to take Canfield off the list as he was duped a few years ago by a faked Rod Bayonet rifle. Wonder if any of the "experts" here know how the fraud was uncovered? (I do) I would still be curious to know what gun show and where my Hoffer was seen for sale and I was so nice to this guy. In plain language, he is a liar. Thanks, Mr. H.

Mr. Humble,

I could have respected you more if you just let it go - or stopped with the first couple of sentences.

I am CLOSING this thread to further posts.
