    Thumbs up Gday all ....

    Gday all,

    I'm new to your fantastic forum. Thanks for having me.

    A bit about me, work in the Australianicon Defence Force and have so for the past ten years.

    I am mainly interested in old military clankers. I have a few .303's including two HT Low Mount sniper rifles.... a Jungle Carbine.... Fazakerley Number 4 Mk 2..... 1903, 1903A3 and 1903A4 Springfields..... P14.... M17.... K98icon..... M91/30 Mosin Nagant.... AIA's and a few hand cannons as well.

    I am very interested in learning more about my HT's as they are my pride and joy.

    From what I have seen there is a fantastic knowledge base here and I will be logging in frequently to learn from this great source.

    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.

    Welcome Aboard pusser.

    Brad AKA Son is your man for the HT info and I'm sure he'd be more than pleased to hear from you with details of your rifles for his HT survey.

    Cheers,

    Simon.

    Thanks Simon.

    I know Son from another forum and he is an absolute champion. I have already given him the rifle info. I hate taking up his valuable time though. He is the sort of guy you wish you had on speed dial to ring all the time.

    Settle down Ned, some of us just got tired of the gear taking us to the sharp end either breaking down or not working when we got there.
    Hence the need for someone with the smarts to fix the stuff.

    It's almost the end of the year Ned, and you're way ahead in points towards the stirrers spoon award.
