126 entries, a lot of cool milsurp, some I had never heard of. Out of all the entries I did not see my cousins Wilkinson Webley 05 revolver (1909) that I am trying to talk him into selling me. Other than that I have a 1918 Lee enfield that bubba got a hold of.

Milsurp- What have you got? Had?
Well, here is the SOF who had admitted to bubbing too many
.303s in the 50's Buying them for $17, cut back the fore stock, sell for $30.
One of those bubba jobs, a friend with a cutting torch altered an SMLE Mk. 4 to a one-piece-stock and I cut the mag back to be flush. With the the wartime peep sight, flush mag (balance point for one hand trail carry), it was one sweet light weight .303 BR for jump-up mulies ion the Chilcotin coulies. Long gone...
Had a #5, mint, could not cut the mustard with the rifle, thus sold off. And cheap too!
Have a 1918 SMLE debubbed by louthepou, full wood, numbers not matching but we celebrated last Nov. 11th at Danford Lake Range with it.
Sticking with the SMLYs, was given a 1913 BSA, walnut stock bubbaed
no rear sight, drilled for a scope base over the bolt with a reasonably good bore. I have a cheap scope on it and it groups not too bad.
Years ago, in B.C. I bought a .303BR M10 Ross bubbaed but with original sights, previously owned by a renowned woodman. I did not too bad a job of checkering the stock wrist and forend. It is one heavy sucker and I have never really tried to work up a good load for it.
Lastly, I have a 1951 Tula SKS-45 refurb with a laminated stock and am in the process of trying to get it to shoot into a pie plate at 200 yds.
Lastly don't ask what I had and sold over the years, too sad...
