    I thought I had it bad. Now I feel ashamed for mentioning my sad story.

    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 ...

    So... Does dog wee have the same problem? We've always had dogs and never seen a (yard) problem, but lately we've seen "burn"rings in the front yard and were wondering what caused them?

    It's the nitrogen in dog urine. Excessive nitrogen burns lawns.

    It may be dog, not ours though. Ours doesn't go where the spots are. This thread made me wonder if cat whiz may be more powerful stuff for some unknown physiological reason...

    The cartridges are supposed to be used to dispose of the cats. (eg. 22-250 Ackley Improved,w. 60gn Hornady HP). Did "Felix" do a "pre-emptive Karma" thing?

    Urine was part of a good many industrial processes in centuries past, and collected for that purpose. Even Mayhew's London mentions this, and many other more interesting things about how the bottom 10% lived in "the big smoke" of the Victorian era.
    “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.
