    Guess it makes the "village idiots" feel safer,
    Why use a 50 pound bomb when a 500 pound bomb will do?

    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 ...

    I guess you'll need to quote the passage...

    Article Used South Africa Picture

    When I copied the image IMG that came in the article to paste it in, then remove the HTTP// IMG at the front ad back it reads as you can see:

    South Africa continues to remove and destroy unlicensed firearms.

    I wondered about this picture because I didn't recognize the surroundings, but it's been a while since being over there. I've finished a number of jobs on the Michigan State Police grounds.. last one being the (then) new State Police Forensic lab about 10+ years ago. I don't know of any other area available over there where the MSP could do there own 'De-Milling'.
    AFAIK, It would have to be done at one of Lansing's scrap yards.
    Although I do believe we may have a few members here that are current or ex local law enforcement that may be able to add to this. If I see my local police cap't I'll ask if he knows anything about where the MSP may do their crunching.

    Good Catch Mr E ....... Close enough for FAKE NEWS !! I guess

    If true.... 23 minutes is a Big improvement, as it was reported in 2012 or 2013: Detroit 911 calls: to get to the highest-priority crimes: 58 minutes, or nearly an hour.
