    Yes, the high elbow.
    He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep to gain that which he cannot lose
    There are no great men, only great challenges that ordinary men are forced by circumstances to meet.

    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).

    When you use that technique to shoot those type rifles instead of today's techniques, you have much better results.

    When I use a sling like that a half twist to the left before you wind it across your hand eliminates that edge cutting into the top of your hand.

    A while back I was watching an old western movie. In one of the cowboy/indian firefights one of the Indians was in full chicken wing pumping the heck out of his '73. Thought it was pretty humorous.

    Easy way

    Hold the rifle to your shoulder with one hand, reach straight back behind your head with your shooting hand, swing it up and over your head to the trigger. This will lock the bones in place and make it easy to hold that elbow high
    Real men measure once and cut.
