    Greetings

    Hello to all. I've been lurking around here for the better part of a year now and haven't posted a thing.
    I don't get on here too often due to time constraints, but I've found this to be a very good site with a lot of info.
    I usually don't post very much and spend most of my time reading. There's a lot to learn and sites like this are a treasure trove.
    I enjoy my 03A3, M1 Carbines, Garands, M1Aicon's, semi 1918 BAR and semi 1919. I have a FA 1919 in the works now.
    I seem to have an affliction when it comes to collecting USGI parts, tools and accessories.
    Also I'm just getting my feet wet with some FAL builds.
    I hope I posted this in the right place. I looked around and this seemed like the most logical place unless I overlooked something.
    Regards,
    Mark

    ETA : About the "Ernest T. Bass" usename. I'm sure many of you remember him as the character from the Andy Griffith show. He was a riot!!

    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.

    Ernest T. Bass?? Never heard of him. (Must have been WAY before my time)
    Heck, I was trying to explain to my 17 year old son about the vertical control on old B&W TV sets just the other day and then I had to think back to how long ago it was when I last had one that had those adjustments.

    Welcome aboard!

    I hope you'll take a stab at posting some photos soon too. There's specific forums as I'm sure you've seen for some of your guns and/or anything else is welcome here on this forum.

    Welcome, Ernest T..
    Shouldn't you be throwing rocks instead of lead?
