I really need help.

I really need professional help. You know you have it bad when you put off buying ammo so you can afford more guns.

A "US Property" no 4 mk 1 Enfield just found its way into my vehicle.

I decided I better bring it in until I can figure out where it came from...

Big 5 has them on sale for $159. Borderline price wise but the J&Gs are not us property stamped and don't come with the bayonet like this did. riffling looked superb. The one I picked needs a lot of cleanup but it had better wood. The other one was almost ready to shoot but had some more wear. I'm in the habbit of totaly stripping all new guns now anyway so I figured I'd go for the nicer wood. guy came in right behind me and snagged the other one.

Well, that's the first step to recovery: admitting you need help.

Enjoy your new addition.

I shot one probably ten years ago and I swear anything I aimed at it would hit. So I'm looking forward to seeing what this can do. Then again I can't afford any ammo now.... oh well probably take me a couple weeks to finish the yugo mauser and then I can start on this one or the turkish mauser.


I really have a problem.

No, a new hire that I work with has problems; He likes guns, but his wife just had triplets, and that's on top of the one child they had already(and he's only 24). NO guns for him anytime soon.
