    SORRY TO SAY THINGS NOT LOOKING GOOD FOR 2018

    Potentially, more young soldiers lives lost, just to show the world whose leader has the biggest mouth and the biggest arsenal of "Hell on this earth"

    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.

    Russiaicon's like the Germanicon company Krupp in the fact of war is money they won't openly admit to supplying arms but allot of kit these terrorists seem to have has very little western influence.
    And Lil Kim I fear is just as likely to be the rabbit out of the box, when the world embargoed Japanicon well we know where that went don't we that little Korean is just dangerous he pokes the Leopard just enough as not to be attacked but all the while getting the data on his rockets and improving them, they all clap him & smile because if they don't they would probably be shot.

    Seriously if it happens the chances of it being a conventional war will be out the window the only thing we can hope for is the USAicon has a similar weapon to Russias non nuclear air burst weapon who's destructiveness is on par with a small nuclear weapon with no radioactivity.
    These are dangerous times for the whole world as if they do start slinging nukes the whole world will suffer as it wont be just 1 or 2...........

    Gentlemen we lived through the Cold War and that's what it is again. As far as soldiers being killed that's the trade we chose and we were soldier's. I usually do not banter in these types of discussions and I appreciate that these are not the best of times. But can we have a little faith in God and humanity. Let us pray that 2018 is healthy and good for all and that perhaps some sort of peace comes too all.

    A nuclear North Korea is very bad news. All North Koreans are taught from Kindergarten that the USAicon invaded North Korea and started the Korean War. All of North Korea has a tremendous hate of the USA, not a joking matter. Never should have allowed them to import Russianicon nuclear engineers and Chinese-brokered uranium. Now everyone is in a panic state. Things do not look good.

    With regards North Korea, China is the only country who have any real influence and would surely be dragged into conflict.

    You can guarantee China and the US have the back channels open and would have to work together should the worse happen.

    China certainly wouldn't want millions of starving North Korean refugees pouring into its territory.

    You have to read articles like that where people in high places start talking "out of line", but you do, as an ex Military man also have to look at it as a HOOYAA moment to the Marines stuck in freezing conditions visiting Santa in Norwayicon to get aclimatized for something.

    The General would probably be in the know, and now Trump has said something has to be done, to stop the proliferation of nuclear weapons by these states, "and if noone else will, I will" leaves a lot of uncertainty in the region.

    Iran kicking off internally won't help either!

    Geoff,
    You misread it $7.50 and lots of spare seating. Nah, there will always be those snifferlers who will attend to better themselves ha ha!
