A piece of advice; don't use Palmolive dish washing liquid in the dish washer (we were out). Suds all over the kitchen. Who'd have thunk it?

Well if your going to go all handgun on us how about I share a US PROPERTY British .38/200 before I let it go. Unusual because it's not chopped or bore to .38 special.
I should photo the crap out of it with my '41 Enfield.
Cheers

Which side of the German border in 1952?Oh she is. After all, it's a SIG, not a SIG Sauer.
Got one of her 60 y/o sisters too, issued to the German Border Police in 1952.

The production of the SMLE was stopped in the UK when they switched over to the No. 4. (IT was continued in India and Australia) However, because of Dunkirk and other heavy loses very early in the war, the Brits were very very hard up for rifles. There were many parts left over from the production of SMLE's and so those were put to use. But this was also during the Blitz and many of the established factories were getting hit. There was also a need for some new SMLE parts to be made so they could take advantage of all the left over parts. These parts were made at small dispersed factories and then the parts were all brought together and the rifles assembled by Birmingham Small Arms. The one in my picture has a very poorly struck B. Any UK made SMLE with a post 1939 date will be a Dispersal, marked with the B of BSA and factory put together from parts from various sources. It is one of the harder to find types of SMLE's.
A peddle scheme would be the harder of the types of SMLE's to find.
PS This was done quickly from memory as I am headed out the door. Please feel free to correct if I got any of it wrong.
