I was watching a show on the Smithsonian Channel on Saturday. It was called Apocalypse: The Second World War. It's primarily all old footage. One of the segments had a British soldier showing civilians how to load a rifle. I suddenly realized that rifle he was demonstrating was Savage 99.
There's 6 episodes and it runs in chronological order. It was either episode 2 or 3, I'm not sure. It would have been sometime after Dunkirk when things were really bad in England. Didn't US citizens send rifles to England at about that point in the war?
Anyhow, I thought that was pretty cool and that folks here might be interested.
