CANADA POST STRIKE NOTICE:

Orders received after Nov 14th will ship via an alternative carrier.

CANADIAN PO BOX ADDRESSES:

Unfortunately, we will not be able to ship to PO BOX addresses within Canada during the strike as only Canada Post has access to deliver to those. Please provide an alternate address or we can hold them for you until the strike is over but please note that even then shipping may be delayed as they work to resume normal operations.

Not the NRA but a 19th-century British organization with the same name. The author traces the origin of the club, prize meetings and, interestingly, a loss to the "Canadian Militia" who defeated the Kolapore Cup at a meeting in Wimbledon in 1872 (pages 164-165).
