    Looking For New Zealand Member Mikey51

    I tried Emailing Mike O'Hagan but it comes back as un-deliverable.
    Any of our New Zealandicon members heard from him?
    He's in Wellington, NZ last I knew of.

    I looked over the NZ carbine collectors forum, but he hasn't been active since ~2012 or so.
    Just checking on him hoping all is well, Appreciate any help.

    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.

    Wow Charlie your right. It seems to have been a long time since Mikey51 was heard from. He was on a Carbine collectors forum in NZicon too but again I have not heard from him in a long time. I do hope he is OK and healthy.

    I did some checking on the NZ Carbine Club Group and Mikey51 who has been a key member has not posted anything since February 2012. The whole forum has not be very active in a long time and I think Barryeye was one of the last to join and that was awhile ago.

    Heard From Mikey

    Well, Technically I didn't hear from him, but WTMR was 'Kind Enough' to forward a message he received to me from Mikey.


    Part of The Reply From Mikey51:

    I am alive and well, but very busy with earthquakes and grandchildren. There is much Government/Police panic down here over gun laws at the moment which has prevented people from searching, buying and selling on line. The same old semi auto, hi cap, bullshit all over again ! That's why everyone has gone a bit quiet.

    Please say Hi to all the carbine guys for me and tell them I haven't really known what to do since the Carbine Club stopped.

    Cheers. Mike.

    Here is a picture of some road repairs caused by a Earth Quake and the landslide aftermath that Mike included in the message.

    Any thoughts how they got that excavator up there??
