When it comes to firearms, I enjoy bringing back to life old school curio and relic rifles where others might have given up. This is a Maltby Enfield No4 Mk1 from 1944 that I ordered from Royal Tiger Imports when they had a one day warehouse sale. It is always a gamble when you order from RTI - you never know what you are going to get and a lot of the time it’s not good. This gun cost me $150 and when it arrived at my door, it looked pretty hopeless. It had a loose butt stock, was missing the rear top wood, also missing the middle barrel band, and the bolt was absolutely stuck closed from rust. After banging open the bolt with a dead blow hammer, I looked down the barrel and it looked pretty rusty. Honestly everything was rusty and most people would have probably given up.

But then I noticed something - this was a numbers matching gun, including the magazine which is almost unheard of for No4 Enfields. So I persevered. I disassembled it and it turned out that almost all the rust was just surface rust. With a lot of elbow grease, I was able to get most of it off and surprisingly there was not a lot of pitting. And I deeply cleaned the barrel which revealed it was a five groove barrel and the rifling was basically intact under the surface rust. From my parts bin, I found a spare rear top wood and barrel band, tightened up the butt stock, and reassembled the gun.

The result is what you see above - the gun won’t win any beauty contests but it will more than likely be a good shooter. The stock fits well and has the appropriate level of barrel down pressure that Enfields require. I’ll try and get to the range soon to see how well she shoots.

Compilation of my fics featuring The Maker (Earth-1610 Reed Richards or Ultimate Reed Richards)

First off, I have a fic series set during Victor von Doom aka Doctor Doom's Infamous Iron Man era. With the Reed Richards he knew presumed dead, he has a one night stand with The Maker, who visits him... the series eventually ends with Earth-616 DoomReed.

Make Believe by doomrichards Explicit Words: 2,123 Summary: Victor falls asleep to thoughts of Reed Richards. When he wakes from the dream, he is greeted by a nightmare, an incubus known as the Maker. Double Check by doomrichards Explicit Words: 11,207 Summary: Second start… second chances… The second versions of the Parliament of Doom and Council of Reeds meet and match. Worlds Collide by doomrichards Explicit Words: 6,074 When Maker makes the bed, he lets Earth-1610 Victor van Damme, Earth-616 Victor von Doom, and Earth-616 Reed Richards lie in it… Blood and Water by doomrichards Explicit Words: 3,734 Maker, the Reed Richards of Earth-1610, delivers himself to Victor van Damme, the Doom of Earth-1610. ----- This fic series is in progress. I ask what if The Maker had been the one to re-scar Doom? Where in Make Believe, The Maker tops Victor, in Meet Your Maker, The Maker bottoms for Doom.

Meet your Maker by doomrichards Explicit Words: 3,161 Summary: Victor invites Maker to re-make him.

Meet your Doom (In their Triumph, like Fire and Powder) by doomrichards Explicit Words: 22,195 (WIP) Summary:

Victor von Doom is the Infamous Iron Man no more. Now, Doctor Doom embraces his destiny as the villain he was always meant to be. Who better to serve as the Monarch of Latveria’s Prince Consort than the Maker, an alternate, villainous version of his arch-nemesis, Mister Fantastic? But when Maker wants out of his deal with Doom at the last minute, Mister Fantastic agrees to secretly swap places with him. Can Victor von Doom truly be happily married to a Reed Richards that, unbeknownst to him, is the very one who tried to make him a better man?

Below are some illustrations and memes I've made for my works... But first, these three panels from Ultimates 2 (2016) #8 where the Maker introduces himself and clearly finds this reality's Victor von Doom fascinating.

Pre Tropical Storm Beryl range session today. The approaching storm kept things cool which was very nice! From left to right, Remington 700 Tactical chambered in 300BLK, Ruger Precision Rimfire in .22WRM with my Silencerco Sparrow on the end, my Aero Precision 16” AR-15 chambered in 300BLK with my AAC 7.62SD on the end, my 1901 Steyr M95 chambered in 8x50R, my 1944 Enfield No4 Mk1 in .303 British, my 1926 SMLE Iraqi marked Lee Enfield No1 Mk3* in .303 British, and my parts bin AR15 pistol with a Noveske lower and a Ballistic Advantage 300BLK 10” barrel with my AAC 762SDN6 on the end.

The Steyr M95 is over 120 years old and it was the first time I was firing it which made me a bit nervous. I am happy to report everything went smoothly and the bullets didn’t tumble despite the barrel looking questionable. All the modern rifles were shot with suppressors on the end which allowed me to not wear ear protection for a good chunk of the time. The most accurate gun was the Ruger Precision Rimfire, that is a fantastic varmint gun - accurate and quiet. And as always, I had the most fun with the Enfields. It was nice to shoot them back to back and in my experience, the No4’s are definitely more accurate. Huzzah!

I hadn’t been out to the range in a while, it was very relaxing. It’s sort of a Zen thing for me and I need to go more often.
