Got lots of links to Online Sellers.

REMEMBER DO NOT SIGN THE ORIGINAL!!!!!!!!!!

You need to make copies, sign them and send them to the companies (SOG, AIM, Etc.)  Also always have a blank in your wallet.  Many places will give you a 'dealer' discount (Midway USA does as well as Cabellas).

Thanks for the tip!  I had read not to sign, and figured that out based off needing to send copies of other's FFL when buying, but never thought of the Midway or Cabela's options.  Will let you know when Christmas ... ah ... C&R arrives.

Please don't try and hold your breath till then ... Kitty Fur from mouth to mouth is not my thing ;D

Haz, Very Sweet! Thank you for the pics, the link you put up a couple pages back has the 1891 Argentine Mauser (of which, I'm partial) ;) ;D, and I agree with the title of the post,.,..... True Battle Rifle!

Congrats on the Ishapore!

That was quite a clean up project. I see you were violating all kinds of child labor laws. Good for you, and it's educational to boot!
Very nice piece. I'll have one one day.

Isn't labor savings (ours) what we have them for?   ;D

Haz, when I was a kid, I bought a .303 Enfield, mail order, from Kleines Sporting Goods in Chicago. 3 Bucks as I recall. I used gasoline to remove the cosmo. Now it would be cheaper to use 4 million Q-tips wielded by six day laborors from south of the border (I use the term border as if we actually had one anymore).

Well Mac,

If ya got a 3 dollar anything today that you had to use gas to clean, cleaning would be the most expensive part, that's for sure!

BTW, still have the Enfield?

Yep!  All you need is brushes, rags, green scrub pads, mineral spirits and a 15 year old to do the work! ;D

I'm lacking a teenager but my friends are always trying to pawn one off on me. Maybe I'll borrow him for awhile if I get a surplus rifle.
