    I recall my older brother telling us off some MSC instructors who wanted a blown up rifle for demonstration purposes..
    a suitable old and worn SMLE was found..barrel plugged with dirt,tied to tree string applied to trigger and bang she went,barrel cleared.
    replugged with dirt firmly,bang same result....
    metal bolt stuck down barrel,,bang...no more bolt!!!
    the old gal just kept blowing out obstructions till they threaded bolt into muzzle...
    SOMETIMES a loose n rattly action isnt such a bad thing after all.
    at end of day this is just a souless tikka LMFAO....
    I have bit of string and access to tree out in paddock if it needs destruction tested.
    75/15/10 black powder matters
