Enfield Rifle Membership Patch,
I was chatting with Tony the other night, and him and I tossed around the idea of having a Membership patch. We would need to submit designs to be voted on and then find a place to sew them. Just another suggestion

Well, there's a few places round here that do it..But I think we might be in for an expensive time unless we able to order in bulk.
GREAT idea !! Doesn't Enfield have it's own badge( Tudor Crown, round.-I seem to remember something like that)

hoadie,
Yes we can incorporate the Enfield coat of arms into are patch. And the price is not to bad if you order in volume. I have had them made for Boy scouts a few times. I think we have to order 144 at a time.

My Civil War unit had shirts done up years ago.They were black (so we didn't have to wash 'em as often) with a 3 band Enfield on the front..Stated: Enfield owners have steel rods & lead balls"
Someone nicked it on me!

hoadie As far as tee shirts go, I have a guy here close that does those and he is cheap. If it is ok with Eric, you submit some designs and I will get some numbers. He also does ball caps, for that matter he may do patches as well. I will keep you guys posted.

You could wear the badge over a flag patch to denote your country of origin. Just make sure the T shirts are big enough to go over your straight Jacket

CM: With regards to postage..I hope YOUR postal service aint like mine ! They give a whole new meaning to the term "SNAIL MAIL" When I send a small packet to OZ, Allan is about 2 years older by the time it gets there!!
(Canada uses migrating whales to deliver in that part of the world) If we wanna get it there sooner - I can send it on PTERADACTYL Airways - takes forever.Allan would be a fossil by the time it gets there!
I still think Enfield Arms patch should be incorporated into it.
Tony is probably our best bet for design ideas. Traditionally the Brits seem to have a flair for these things..& when it comes to tradition, we know the Brits are full of it !

is this a likely candidate ?on the back of the shirt..with flag(of country origin) in background, crossed rifles overlapping with the web address accross the top? with a catchy phrase on the front of shirt on left side of chest? i know the rifles crossed are NO1s but not to be biased. you could also cross the rifle of choice.
just a thought...dont yell at me.

Could I suggest the rifles are set in a shield on the front of the shirt and on the back put the front view of an enfield. Ie the sights guard and muzzle so it looks like you are looking down the barrel. We have the mk 1 to mk 4 enfield so why not have em in chronological order horizontally on the shield and your countrys flag as a background within the shield?? I'd be wary of putting a web address Allan there are so many anti gun nuts around they could ruin our fun by wrecking the site. Word of mouth advertising for the site would be a lot safer. Eric has put a lot of work into all this and the antis wouldn't think twice about causing bother. Besides I wouldn't like Dave to get upset imagine the language!

I TOLD ya Tony would come thru !!! Good man, him!
Yeah..lokkin down the "business end" of an Enfield would SURE get some attention. I LIKE the idea of a white shield, & a bunch of #1's showing.(don't mean to be biased).
Tony's right about the idiots out there.(I was thinkin along Allan's lines there too, with the web site n all.)They would screw this up in a heartbeat, & that would go over like a fart in a spacesuit with Dave !!!

How about the no 1 at the top of the shield with date underneath following through to no 4 mk 2 and end of an era the date they were taken out of commission? Whoops forgot the old enforcer bung that on too. Round bottom of the shield write 303 British so it goes round the curve On the left hand side front have the national flag of whoever is wearing it stars and stripes etc and under the flag the persons name.
Thanks for the vote of confidence Hoadie but it won't stop me from taking the p**s out of you!

Who said they were taken out of commission ? Tony, this might shock you...steady boy-o...Canada STILL issues them. Yep - God's honest truth. The Inuit get them for service in the north.(it's still the only reliable firearm they've found for sevice in the arctic.)

I was referring to the British Government Hoadie. You honestly think our lot here could make a decision based on the fact a proven weapon is best? They're too busy bonking their secretaries. Our politicians are showing themselves to be so crooked of late makes watergate sound like alice in wonderland.

Ok, I like the ideas and i agree no web site on the shirts, I figure the back of shirt could be all the same, and over the pocket on the left front your flag and name if wanted.

Don't blame yourself Allan its a great idea I'm sorry I had to bring it up. In the uk you have to be 1 jump ahead of the antis or they'd screw everything up. I'd hate to wear a shirt somebody take note of the ad and then start ruining Erics hard work. I'd never forgive myself.

Hey guys an idea! Over here a lot of guys wear blazers with their army badge on the pocket ! How about checking if we can get some badges made to sew onto blazer pockets or shooting jackets? I'll have a word with a mate of mine who did silver engraving see what it would cost to get some epns badges made. If he's up to it he had a heart attack a short while ago.

Can't guarantee Nick will be able to sort out any engraving he's still in hospital they had to do open heart surgery on him a valve had packed up. Soon as he's well enough to talk I'll see if he's game to try it, his mrs recons he'll have to pack up work but he may do it from home when he gets sorted.
