Seeing that the wartime government expropriated the company, it would seem that the name belongs to us all. As we know all to well, the current government doesn't believe in public ownership - history be damned! It wouldn't surprise me to learn that the Ross Rifle Co. name could be purchased cheap.

All of your advert blurbs would have to be from Sam Hughes, and at the very bottom in very small type you add, "not recommended for trench warfare."<br /><br />Jameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11617268878665390285noreply@blogger.com
