    Great video. A welcome addition to my study break.

      good video, but why did you get a child to do the video work?
      I knew a simple soldier boy.....
      Who grinned at life in empty joy,
      Slept soundly through the lonesome dark,
      And whistled early with the lark.

      In winter trenches, cowed and glum,
      With crumps and lice and lack of rum,
      He put a bullet through his brain.
      And no one spoke of him again.

      You smug-faced crowds with kindling eye
      Who cheer when soldier lads march by,
      Sneak home and pray you'll never know
      The hell where youth and laughter go.

        Catch-22 says they have a right to do anything we can't stop them from doing.

          heheh sorry about that, I had her in the baby jail but she wouldn't settle down!
          I'm going to do another video tonight on a replica of Oswald's Carcano rifle I made up.
          I'll also be on the history channel in a few months replicating the Kennedy headshot with Jessie Ventura.

          After that I have a German Naval luger that came out of army stores and may have been used by Sir Roger Casement !

            It was a good video, like the collection! Where did you pick up the almost brand new enfield? I use new in the relative sense of course
            Big feck off scope on the FN too, bet some of the lads wouldnt have minded trying that out in the day

                  Very impressive, a bit vague in areas but obviously working without a script so well done, very nice Mk IV lovely & clean, almost looks like a repro from a Kashmiri sweatshop?

                  It was a good video, like the collection! Where did you pick up the almost brand new enfield? I use new in the relative sense of course I have a collection of SMLE & Mk IV that I pick up from various sources, I use a buy & sell site called MILWEB.NET, if anybody is looking for something rare or even odd ( like Eastern Bloc mobile artillery ), thats the place. A good order SMLE III or Mk IV will cost from 300 - 400 Euro in the new spec deactivation, for the purist the old spec will cost probably double that.

                    It is a beautifully made video about the history of Irish Army Rifles.
