Hi guys. I've been lurking, reading and learning here for the past few years already .
I am simply fascinated by Enfield rifles and their intertwining with our local history: I went to school in the last British outpost, currently stay within the shadow of one of the ZAR forts and shot my first warthog with a standard service issue Enfield . I am a member of our local collectors association and hope to share some of their vast knowledge here with you.
