    SECRETS OF A POLICE MARKSMAN

    Its on tonight at 10pm Channel 4 UKicon and for those off shore I'll post a link in the morning to the video.

    At least it has been properly phrased "Marksman" thats what we were not snipers in the Police Service regardless of what you attained in the Military before in another life, well at least here in the UK.

    Just listened to an interview with PC Tony Long on BBC 2 the programme came over quite open and forthright about his role in shooting dead 3 men in his service.

    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 ...

    Spot on.
    I think by opening old wounds, it will only cause him more dramas, for the sake of a few quid from a book
