John;
Thanks for the reply, I appreciate it.
It's interesting that they had .303's by the barrel there too, but I suppose they made so many during the war. It's cool that you still have one with family connection for sure. I really shouldn't have traded off my favorite Uncle Frank's .303, but of course I did.
Up to a little bit ago, the Canadian Forces were still using John Inglis made Hi Power pistols, that's how many were sitting in waxed paper!
My goodness sir, do I hear you on not going mountain goat hunting anymore. That and rodeo rough stock riding is a younger person's activity in my view.
I can vividly recall coming back from a goat hunt in the Telegraph Creek, BC area - we were maybe 60 miles off the Alaska panhandle as best we could figure in those pre-GPS days. Anyways we came away with the firm belief that any mountain goat hunt we survived was a successful one!
Thanks again, good luck on the LEH and stay well.
