The Very British Rates of Fire Disaster Video
Single Shot Rifles

Bono estente! Down in Bella Italia, Bloke meets up with Kevin of SBAM shooting for a spot of shooting and banter on the range. BotR combining with SBAM is a bit like crossing the beams in Ghostbusters (the original one), and disaster would have to ensue. By definition. Ammo didn't turn up, and when it did it wouldn't fit. Rifles that usually worked flawlessly refused to. But it was fun all the same!!!
Guns in this video:
Lee-Enfield MLE (Long Lee)
