    ROSS RIFLE on the 2014 ''TOONIE''.

    [/SIZE]Going thru some change that had been collecting in my truck's ash tray ,I noticed one of those '' odd toonies''. it was dated 2014.....its the one with a young lad running up to a soldier marching.....the soldier and others look like they are carrying ROSS Rifles./..........easy to see they are NOT Lee ENFIELDS....

    Thought it very interesting......
    cheers W.C. / Glenn

    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.

    Sorry to burst your bubble, but the soldier is carry a Lee Enfield. It is much easier to see in the ten dollar silver coin.

    Sorry, the URL I provided is worst than useless. Fortunately, I downloaded a picture.

    I hope this works.

    Here you go: Wait for Me, Daddy - Wikipedia

    Also made famous on the cover of "Six War Years" by Barry Broadfoot.
    “There are invisible rulers who control the destinies of millions. It is not generally realized to what extent the words and actions of our most influential public men are dictated by shrewd persons operating behind the scenes.”

    Edward Bernays, 1928

    Much changes, much remains the same.
