@Gapped axe The surplus store that used to advertise in the back of dad's farm mags also had new M1 carbines for sale as well as Jungle carbines..... I was about 15 and wanted both sooooooo badly!

@Ross Nolan That's right it was in them too. I mostly remember it in the farm mag as I used to eagerly wait for them to arrive so I could see what was available. They used to have "Brit Army packs" with WW2 helmets, gasmasks etc as a package deal. The US Vietnam, era gear was being sold cheap too :-)
Ahhh...I remember Valentines in Barton Street Hamilton. Went there once. It was heaven for a young kid right into military stuff. I just just didn’t have the pocket money to get anything at the time. When we went back it had changed...
