How did this turn into a tactical forum?

not that I mind, but I think these topics might be better elsewhere. Frantic types might draw the wrong conclusions, and think we are plotting violence on those misguided cretins. and when one of them burns the place down when the cherry from his joint falls onto his all-natural wardrobe, igniting a small fire which is fueled by stacks of foodstamps and marxist brochures, we don't want to give the quisling law enforcement any reason to come looking for us. Trust me, they'll come some day, I'd just rather it weren't tomorrow.

That said, i'm a huge fan of the SMLE. good rifle, good price, great cartridge. VERY reliable.

Nah, that's over here.

The last I recall President Bush stated that we're at war, and that you're either with us or against us. I can't help it that there are some who have declared themselves to be enemies of the United States who just happen to be American, whether us norteamericanos or from regions further south.

Concur on the Enfield; my kid is fond of his SMLE, and the #4 mkI*[T} works well for me, as does the L42A1.
