You've arrived at the Enfield and Classic British Rifle Forum.
Here we aim to celebrate classic British engineering as expressed in the British rifle.
Although Enfields are the most popular area of interest for collectors we recognise that the evolution of the rifle in the UK involved an ongoing exchange between civilian shooters and the military. It was from the "Defence of the Realm" and "a rifle in every cottage" calls that the volunteer movement and competitive shooting in the UK sprang, as was epitomised by the annual service rifle competition at Bisley and the Imperial meeting.
This rich history means that there is all the more to explore and enjoy in the celebration of Enfields and Classic British Rifles.
I'd love a British double rifle, by the likes of Holland and Holland or Purdey in .303". One can dream.
Ultimately rifles are inanimate objects and it is us their owners, users and custodians that allow them to "live". Therefore this forum is not just about the nuts and bolts of British rifles but also sharing the emotions, joys, pleasures and pains that these weapons give us. So range reports, good feelings and the pleasure we get from our interest/obsession is as welcome as the how to? and what is this? questions.
A common interest gives us a common language, the basis for real friendships.
So please read and contribute, as any positive input is a contribution worth making.
I've never regretted anything I've said but I've often regretted not saying what I thought.
If all this preamble is a bit serious, please remember all this about having fun, as the actress said to the bishop. UK joke for American visitors.
