I picked one up last night in the local Barnes & Nobles. oops, I should say my Wife did as a surprize for me
LOL got to love them.

Really nice calendar, photos and history tidbits in it ...

Could that M1903 possibly be the 'Dad Farr' NM rifle used to set the record score at the 1921 National Matches? That is in the National Firearms Museum, as I recall.

Looks like his homemade spotting scope - one-half of a pair of opera glasses - noted in one of Major Culver's 'Sea Stories' on this site.
