Enfield Help?

So after cleaning with oil soap and one application of Lin-Speed (boiled linseed oil and a little solvent), I'm at a loss here. 

I'm not happy with the look so far. 

Should I strip and start over? Leave alone and put back together? I need your help!

A gentle tune

A short lived band with but three albums in two years. The band formed in 1966. The members were Neil Young, Stephen Stills, Richie Furay and Jim Messina.

I leave you with this gentle tune tonight. 

Tonight's Entertainment

So I have watched a lot of the parody's of the Hitler rant on You Tube. I actually ran into this one this week as a newly minted iPhone person. 





I decided to get this in context.  A truck of happiness just delivered this. Its a little after 8pm here.  I comment to the driver that he is working a little late.  He comments that "I work for idiots".  I beg to differ Sir, considering the USPS is defaulting on another oh, 5.6 BILLION! 


What did I get? This.

I think I will rattle the house now.  Review later!

Hey, NRA!

You are getting on my nerves.  Caller ID is showing that you are on average calling my landline (thankfully) about four times a day. I bit about 10 minutes ago and answered the phone.  With all of the infrastructure at your disposal could you at least get the pronunciation of my last name right?  Or at least know that I attended my Friends of the NRA Dinner last month, I'm a Certified Instructor, Life Member, anything?

Scare tactics really don't work on me much.  In fact the hyperbole does more to make me less likely to be whipping out the credit card.   

Keep it up and will divert more money to the Second Amendment Foundation.  At least I can open the mail at my leisure and not worry about the phone ringing off the hook. 

Just Sayin'

Hugs and Kisses, 

Not Mr. Eds. You figure it out.The last Mr. Ed I observed was a horse. Of course.

The After After Action Report!

MsgtB pretty well sums it up!  Glad to have met him and his wife! Honored to be on the line shooting with them too. Smart, wicked sense of humor, what's not to like? Uh, adaptability too.  I did not warn him of the fact that most burrows have at least one, possibly two emergency exits! 

Go check his Blog out. You will not be disappointed.

Enfield Update

So after last nights cleaning of the wood Murphy provided I get to it. All of it fits without modifications. There are some differences though:

Murphy's stuff is on the left of each specimen.  The rear handguard that came with the rifle has metal on it to protect the rear sight. No such thing on the handguard on the left. The buttplates are totally different. No big deal. Its not like I am going to throw the old wood in the fireplace. So for now another round of Murphy oil soap!
