    Was that falling from the sky, in addition to the more direct shooters activities??

    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 ...

    Very little information from LIb media.
    I was listening last night on the link I posted earlier.
    Heard a dispatch for a bus that had hit it's silent alarm.
    18 minutes later they were still trying to get a unit to it, it was right at shift change.
    Wife read from a friend on facebook today, (friend living in Chicago) that 2 hoods were shooting at each other on that bus, taking cover behind people. Yep......... Sanctuary city and gun control !!

    I am forcing myself to self censored my comments to avoid prohibited content.
    Perhaps some enterprising individual could market this model in Chicago.
    Seems a perfect place to test the market.

    I read a comment earlier that said build walls around the bad areas. Drop in extra ammo and let them go at it.
    Makes me think of a movie over here that had Kurt Russell in it. He played SNAKE PLISSKEN ,

    I get approached by some junky at least once a day around here, this is no exaggeration. Pumping gas, walking out from buying smokes, even walking to your car after a meal at a restaurant with your family. I've seen one dumb enough to approach guys half lit sitting at the bar, that fella didn't fare to well I'll tell you, kinda hard to find the door with both eyes swelled shut. They all have the same story. It's always they need a couple of bucks for gas because they're broke and need to get to the hospital to pick up their KID!! Most of the time I say NOPE!! or if I'm in a bad mood I'll tell them to Get Lost, male or female. Using your little ones "if you even have kids in the first place" to fool someone into handing over their hard earned cash so you can score your heroin is disgusting.
    I grew up on these here streets and there ain't nothing getting past me buddy but it must work on some people because it's always the same story.....

    Yep. Always talking on their mobiles.




    I like the officer’s modified isosceles. That’s the way it’s done. Very nice!
