Description This is an old rifle belonging to my son. I thought some might be interested in a little bit of Australian hisrory. More information can be found here [link]

It is a short magazine Lee- Enfield 303 rifle (SMLE)

Various models used through WW1 & WW2

This particular rifle was Australian made at Lithgow in 1942.

Although the date on the stock is 1947, this is just an armoury marking.

It was in service until the mid fifties.

I think I certainly can learn a thing or two by your collage work.

O, and any additional grids are appreciated.

Thank you kind Sir. I was trying to make my own grids yesterday. I made one OK, but for some reason I can't use the magic wand to put the photos into the black spaces. I've done somthing wrong somewhere

Thank you.....I don't care much for firearms either, but when something a bit different presents itself, I can't help but photograph it.

Your collages are always so good. You have a wonderful eye for putting just the right shots together.

Thank you very much

I learnt from making Audio Visuals, that if you want to show several photos together, they should show different aspects of the subject, and that is what I try to do.

I like the top right picture. I've seen a lot of pictures of firearms but never from that angle.

Thank you. No he doesn't actually collect guns, it's more like a collection of things to do with war. He has photographs and medals among other things.
