    Six more names to add to the list.

    Six more young men have been killed by a road side bomb in Afganistan.
    Having come from their base in Warminster brings it even closer to home. I, like so many other people who have been able to visit the wonderful arms collection as a guest of Peter Laidlericon have seen these brave men for ourselves.
    My sympathies to everyone at the Warminster garrison and the families and friends of those who have died.
    Gone but never forgotten....

    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 ...

    So very sad. Prayers to them and their families.
    Why use a 50 pound bomb when a 500 pound bomb will do?
