    Funny how the 'ban em all brigade' get a bit touchy when you point out that civilians in 3rd Reich Germanyicon were banned from firearm ownership by you know who prior to the events of 1st Sept '39......

    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 have a suggestion. I do not believe there is a European poster here that would not make a very good neighbor. As my country seems to want emigrants
    of the legal or illegal type I would like to personally extend an invitation to each of you to consider a trip across the pond. We could use a few more sound minded folks.

    Been many times to most States east and west coasts, but not much in the middle whilst in the Police. Its a great country, but found it hard that every State was like another country in terms of its laws.
    Wish we could have something similar here in the UKicon. That would be a way around some of the gun laws to keep it sensible IMHO

    Our freedoms are eroding. Just at a slower pace. "Power corrupts, Absolute power corrupts absolutely".

    How true, that's why most of us Brits voted to raise Anchor and sail away from the EU!

    We're quite capable of messing up our own country, we don't need any help from politicians in Brussels!

    For Brit's working in Europe it's a bit like waiting for the second Dunkirk!
    Alot of Britishicon citizen's working in European community did not get to vote on Brexit; because we've been away too long! But quite a few of us work for British companise or there oversea's agent's. So could have a huge impact on our job's.
    No information at all on what's going to happen with pension's or healthcare etc.
    Whether your for or against Brexit; you have to admit that the handling of it is a complete mess.
