Hi Desert Rat. Join up with the guys from the Bruce Rifle Club that shoot near Milton. Service Rifle, lots of SLR's etc!
PS Carry handles are for sissies! NZ Army took them all off as a rifle being carried by the handle is not ready for anything!
Cheers gundoc I am already a member there.
I never used to carry my SLR with the carrying handle and I never saw anyone else either, I used to loop my webbing around it on runs that's all. I am just being very sentimental wanting the same type of SLR I was first issued as a 16 year old boy soldier, must be a getting old thing!
I think the phrase is as "originally manufactured (OM)" for the collectors out there.
But I agree there's a sentimentality of such things... and must have been handy too having that on the BFT's
