       Well this follows an "old post" which I guess means not too many
       folks were interested - but it struck a chord here. I have
       attained "something shootable" from all of the SMLE
       Manufacturing plants - India, Canada, US, England, Australia,
       with appropriate bayonets where I could afford them (can't
       afford a "Jungle Carbine" original, so have a replica there
       right now) in varying degrees of perfection.  My first was US
       $9.95 across the counter from Sears Roebuck circa 1959. (They
       seem to cost more now...)   :o
       Is there any way /liklihood of ever getting a LONG Model Lee
       Enfield?  I have one of those rusted/broke Nepalise versions of
       a Martini-Henry, and, a bayonet believed built for the Peabody
       Martini of Providence Tool Company fame (maybe a rich uncle will
       leave me a Peabody-Martini?).
       Are Long model Lee Enfields ever available?   ???
