Excuse the Drool, it is a fantastic collection and I'm as jealous as hell! BUT don't I notice some Lee Metfords in there? :cool2:
I have a number 2 .22 Lee Enfeild, at least that's what I'm told tracking it down is proving diffuclt, also to repay the US compliment a Mossberg 42a. Wasn't the US srvice rifle the Springfeild 04 a Mauser copy? Aparently Mauser sued the US for Pataent Infrigment , and won, so during both wars whilst useing and manufacturing the 04 a royalty had to be paid to Mausuer (You couldn't make it up!) I have shot a number 5 in Jersey belonging to someone I know, wasn't nice to shoot, not because of recoil it just didn't seem to fit as well as the No1 or No 4.
