    U.S M2/M2A1 Flamethrower "Forgotten Weapons" video.

    I was completely unaware as I think most are how these worked. Not anymore, Thanks to Ian.

    My biggest take away from this series was they didn't kill by burning but by CO poisoning. If you think about it, it was kinda humane.

    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).

    I have been watching the introduction videos, and am glad to see the actual range shoot video has been posted.

    Ian always does an excellent job with his productions and the content always surprises with it's depth.

    These devices make for the BEST "Super Soaker" on the block.

    Fill the "fuel" tanks with water instead of the usual flammable material, add the recommended pressurising gas, or even basic compressed air, and liven up those summer kids parties, big time.

    Good (and cheap) "training technique" and will atract a LOT less "attention" than going "live".

    I remember seeing a demonstration of just such a technique at an "open day" at the old "Officer Cadet Training Unit" at Wacol in SE Qld, way back in the mid 1970s; there may even be a photo in an old album somewhere here.
