Thanks, shiloh, and Strangely Brown, I'm not planning to do any re-enactments, but I would like to have some original accessories for my N05. I just got in some stripper clips from Northridge International and I did see the cleaning kit they have in a tin. I'm not sure if that's a good price because this is the first time seeing this item. https://www.northridgeinc.com/product-p/smle-10.htm
Just a FYI about, "Stripper Clips". They are in fact referred to as, "Charging Clips."

Thanks. Goosic, I'll remember that. So many other firearms call them something else. Since we're talking British Rifles, I'll get it right next time. LOLLLL!!!!!
Thanks!

Well said, shiloh, they hide their secret Weapons that make a good man go astray!!! Now that I'm older, those days are in my distant past and fading memories.

But yes, my Charger Clips are in NOS condition and they are ready and willing to serve at the range, or in the heat of Battle. 

I believe I have 2, and 4 in the proper position as to not become locked as they are Charged. I hope I don't get myself in trouble with the moderator for hijacking the Oiler Thread!

tony was a member - now departed [RIP] - that was a stickler for proper nomenclature , he corrected . sometimes with a bit of a bite , but was much appreciated here , we all loved his wit as well as his bite , you may now feel like your properly inducted [not sure there is any criteria ] and that was the hazing

Yes....Sir....hoadie....Sir....I may be a Yank, but I'm a fast learner!!!

BTW, hoadie, Sir, in case you missed my comment on another thread, here's a copy for you.

hoadie....Sir....could I a Yank adopt you as well? My wife and I did honeymoon on the Canadian side of the Niagara Falls way back in 1986? I need the guidance of an experienced Enfield Rifleman, so I don't confuse a Charger with something the heathens among us refer to them as? I promise I will be dedicated to learn the ways of the Enfield and all its proper terminology and part names, and to become one with my N05 as well as any N04 that may be entrusted to me in the future.

Thanks, hoadie....Sir....in advance.SmileWink

Tony has now been superseded (but never replaced) by Hoiadie!
Not to worry, Matron still has the dart Tranq gun if it gets overboard.

Yes, my friend, Shamu, I've noticed, I have a tendency to be that way as well. Who wants to go through life and not he happy and crack a joke or two when the opportune time arises?

On the same token, there are many knowledgeable like minded men here, and that's what makes the difference.Wink 

Cheers!Smile

Sometimes new guys don't get it & assume we're being nasty, instead of funny.
