Some of my rifles found during the years.

Hello-as we had previously discussed, the rifle missing the butt is an M1917 Enfield not an M1903 Springfield-how do you avoid being blown to smithereens while fossicking amongst live ordinance on old battlefields?

By taking the time to do research on what he could encounter, then digging slowly and carefully

Very nice finds though

Thanks
