    Bren wooden blanks

    Came across these the other day not often found where I live in Australiaicon as I live 200+ k's from the capital in our state and there is only one other cartridge collector in our club where I live, no one posts live ammo in Australia so if you buy a packet you basically have to get a courier willing to carry it or fly interstate to get it if purchased outside the state or drive to them if within.
    Still a nice full packet for a good price.

    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 ...

    Hi Peter,
    It is against the law to post any firearms ammunition in Australiaicon that includes primers and powders you can post empty cases and projies but nothing else that may contain explosives.
    I once brought a full packet of 33 BSA shipped it from NSW to WA and I think it cost me about $55.oo AU for the courier service for a 10 round packet!. (You know our topography Peter we are the Wait A while State)
    Our postal service like other parts of the world does x-ray items of interest and if they perchance come across your item either the Federal police or Customs will bash their way in one Sunday morning I would then lose all my guns and ammunition collection well in fact they would just take the lot and I would cop a really hefty fine & banned from ever owning firearms again the sender possibly suffer the same fate if a dealer they could definitely lose their license and their guns. Our firearm/ammunition laws in WA are very strict

    So we live in a crushing regime that keeps enthusiasts shooters and collectors on a tight leash as for semi autos forget it and full autos are pink pigs flying south for summer..........
