    Peters Friday at work

    This was the scene behind Peters bench at 16:30 on a Friday afternoon after his boss got a late order that these all had to have new barrels fitted by 17:00 the same day. I wonder what thoughts were happening (Sorry Peter found this and could not resist)
    I would not mind that lot though there could be some sleepers in there of some rarity.....

    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 ...

    We used to call it happy hour in Oz. You should have seen the 'burn-pits' of Iraqi weaponry and stuff after Gulf 1! Just never ending....... There was a distinct lack of oil in the Gulf....... Well, there was for when it came to weapon and vehicle maintenance!

    Yup, I used to work a lot of "overtime" hours too. Not to mention I've done my fair share of helping young co-eds pay their college tuition. Ahhh,,, to be a young man......
