I bought a gun.

It’s a used Lee Enfield 1914 bolt-action .303 rifle with a scope.  It’s not fantastic, but I wanted something better than a plastic toy though not too expensive.  I plan to use it to do some target practice up at the cottage.  The ammo came from Serbia and is probably the same bullets supplied to the Chechen army.  It weighs a ton and looks like something my Estonian great-grandfather would have owned.
