    Not a Krag.....

    Seeing the recent postings on the Lee rifles, just had to throw pictures of mine out there.

    M1885 Remington-Lee and M1895 Winchester-Lee. Recently located a M1873 bayonet for the Remington. Icing on the cake was the USN scabbard.

    Given enough of those WL Navy rifles perhaps we should stage an invasion of Cuba. By the time their heads cleared from the confusion I think we could take Havana.

    Nice rifles.

          *Sigh*
          They told us at least seven times in training that we should take that as a sign that we should do a bayonet charge.

          It's 177 miles from Santiago de Cuba to Havana, which is a long time to maintain a charge with the accompanying scream, but we call that "physical fitness."
