More gratuitous Enfield pics

Post by joseyclosey » Sat Mar 14, 2009 2:13 pm

Our club held a shoot at 6a range today. I had the opportunity to photograph some of Dromia's Enfields.

He is a jammy bastid having so much nice kit! :mrgreen:

Enjoy the pics.

You are sooo right Joe - they are very nice kit (and he's a jammy bastid)
Great photos as always.
The mounting plate for the Lee Metford, is that recent manufacture ?
Finish and condition look too good.

Nice Land Rover too. :D

An appropriate Enfield range accessory methinks. :bigsmile:

Not sure about the the mounting plate Graeme, it does look new manufacture to me too. Adam?

The wind on Saturday was really strong again and i had to set up the cooking gear in the range console to supply our hungry members and guests with the usual heart attack inducing, cholestorol laden fare of fried bacon, eggs and sausages in a bun. Luvverly jubberly :mrgreen:

PS The Land Rover is nearly as handy as a green Sherpa van BTW. ;)

No the plate is original, must be the photograph.

Can almost smell it from here Joe! Got a friend (yes I have :( ) in the UK at the moment and she has an order to bring back British Dry Cured Back Bacon or she doesn't get back in!! :loco:
