Gentlemen, may I ask you to follow this link
http://www.icons.org.uk/nom/nominations ... ield-rifle
and vote for the greatest rifle ever used by Great Britain in two world conflicts and numerous back street policing actions over a period of almost seventy years.
I notice two of the people that have commentated are known to me at Bisley!

'Tis done,
However I would argue that it is an icon of Britain and the commonwealth rather than England.
The acton was designed by a Scot and as a military arm it was used by many other than the english.
Still I suppose when you are the only one of the 4 Kingdoms that is cultrurally uncertain of your identity then these sites are necessary, sad really.
Done.

Mick,
More than happy to vote---although I admitted I was an American, so it might be annulled.

Okay, my vote's in for the Enfield. Close run thing, though: the old blue passport almost got my vote instead.
