My Wife Got me a Martini Enfield in .450 cal for X-Mass , I'm so lucky to have a Woman like that...
She gave me a bottle of Martini & Rossi extra dry vermouth and said thats what I asked for. She got me good then brought out the Rifle. SWEET!!!!

 My millionaire boss decided he ain't rich enough and made us work ( 12hr shiftworker) through the holidays , so that somewhat threw a " wet blanket" over any festivities....new years too .
On a much better note , we did spend Christmas eve with the kids and grandsons and thats a gift in itself.
Also , my wife "somehow" managed to find a Canadian  P'07 bayo , a Canadian  FN C1 bayo and a Brit P'03 bayo. I wonder how she figured that out ?...dang! she's good ! lol

Seems to be some correlation between Enfields and good wives.  My wife is not real happy about "guns" but she gave me a box that contained a filled out application for the local gun club with a check for a years membership.

While not Enfield related it was neat. My sister made me a framed display of family memorabilia taped to it was a Stick pin that had belonged to my Grandfather.  It is two teeth, set in gold, of the first Red Stag he shot in Germany about a century ago!

I got myself something but I totally crossed  over to the Dark Side, I got a Ar-15 Lower, now for the Heavy Barrel Match upper.

I asked for an Enfield Longbranch. Under the Xmas tree there was a branch from our Oak tree with a big label printed. ENFIELD.
 
Next day is saw a long box with the sweetest looking 1943 Longbranch she got aat a local gunshop.
You may take my Enfield. From this cold and lifeless hand.
