I've been a fan of British firearms since I was about 10 or 11...We went to a department store just before Xmas, and in the basement in a barrel were unaltered Enfield No 1 ["SMLE"] rifles for [IIRC] $10 or @12...My dad bought one...

Part of the fun of these old British firearms is searching out the meaning for the characters on them...Every one has a meaning, however obscure...
