G'day all! The name is Steve (AKA Richo) and I'm a Lee-Enfield addict. I live in Katherine, Northern Territory Australia. No we don't ride kangaroos
 . I'm an Armourer (Fitter and Turner by trade) in the Air Force (also ex Army) so working on my own rifles is something I love to do. I love hunting and shooting. Uh thats about it really. Any questions feel free to ask.
Richo

Welcome to the forum! We could do with a few more Brits too there's only around 3/4 on the site and it's hard work teaching Americans how to spell and speak the Queens English!  |

Well in all honesty I'm actually a Kiwi born and bred. Only had the frontal lobotomy 5 years ago so I could join the army. I support 2 teams when it comes to sport NZ and whoever's playing against Australia. Still when the French play the Wallabies I just turn the TV off! All said and done thanks for the welcome guys and I hope to maybe pick up a few hints and maybe share a few if I can.

..& NO- the Scots dont REALLY speak English...I think they have invented some form of language designed to infuriate the English! 
...& the Yanks dont speak it,either!(Thats why they call it 'mericun.As in:"lemme axe him if he speaks mericun." ..& Dont get me started on the Aussies!! 
(Darn good thing us Canucks are here to keep ya on the right path!  )
