    must know more about my lithgow sht*111 1918 .

    based on what you have said the lithgow would be a legitimate australian made WWI battle rifle , the change from mkIII to mkIII* occured in mid-late 1915 , so a 1918 rifle would definetly be a mkIII* , it would of coarse have had a full wood stock when made with a steel nose cap[bayonet...

    just a little additional info reguarding markings to add to the great info provided above , the very early savages [1941-2] were marked as mkI , these would have a small button at the right/rear of the bolt , it is depressed to allow bolt removal , these are the rare ones of the savage as...

    AR-15 recoil ?

    welcome back to the AR platform , they all do that , its the intent , and it works well , to reduce recoil and improve accuracy , im starting to like the sound , it grows on you much like the ping of the M1garand , and the clack of a kalishnokoff , and the smell of the cloud of blue from a...

    Old Marlin, any value?

    right side of the stock kills it - its a left side out wall hanger unless by chance a buyer has the buttstock for it , otherwise its a fair rifle finish wise based on its age , there are those that collect these in the older calibers tho

    AR 15 Scope

    your really trying to cover too many bases with a single solution , but i understand the desire to have one rifle do it all , an aimpoint will solve the CQB senario and a tip off magnifier should get you out at range , if a lighted sight is desired , otherwise id look at the variable leupold...

    AR-15 Optics, Iron sights needed?

    yes - didnt say they were useable without optic removal , but excelent observation and my original info was deficient , the FAL has a QD aimpoint mount as well - then there is a groove in the ARMS mount that allows use of the irons , the EOTECH is cowitnessed lower third , its not even...

    scope / reticle question

    it will be 'fun to play with' , and if that is of interest go for it , BEFORE I START THIS IS JUST MY 2 CENTS - the illuminated trijicon chevrons are very nice , and fun , the red dots are cool too , but the fine cross hair is the easiest to be accurate with the others are quicker...

    AR-15 Optics, Iron sights needed?

    Enfield jungle carbine

    lotsa good answers to the original question , yes , a no5 is a fine deer rifle , and some good input on "the rifle" , it was made as a no5 not a modified no4 [except in design] and a no4 would be a great deer rifle too , no5 rifle is a faz - only FAZ and BSA made them , the no4s...
