I already posted a topic on the reloading portion of the site, before I realized I hadn't introduced myself! My name is George and I've been a collector of surplus rifles for over fifty years now, including numerous Enfields over the years. I have a bit of experience with the those glorious old Brits, but I'm always willing to learn more. Currently I have and shoot:

#4 rifle......Savage, full military
#4 rifle......Enfield, FTR, full military
#4 rifle......Enfield, severely cut down, 16" barrel (not my doing, but I got it shooting)
MkIII*.......Enfield, used by an old friend during the "banana republic" wars in the 50's
MkIII*........Ishapor (made in 1970!)

Just finished loading a bunch of cast lead .303 for the upcoming season and looking forward to shooting. Remember, spring IS coming!

Y'know..I wonder if its a good idea to list what you have on an open site like ours.

I say that because all the "antis" are looking to point fingers & "take away'

Just thinkin

hoadie has a point but --- they can come for them , we dont have to give them up , most of what he listed would be of no interest anyway - antiques , they are after you ARs and hi cap handguns , 

isnt it interesting that everything they want , everything they are after , everything they wish to take is from law abiding citizens , never a law - a word of the criminals or gang members , it makes one wonder what they really want dont it ???? 

we have a problem with criminals with guns - look at chicago 
we have a problem with mental illness with guns - look at the school shootings
we have a problem with gangs with guns - look at any democratically controlled city 
we have no problem with average americans that own guns
