    New Found RAF Marksmanship Put Down To Quality of New Fig 11



    This picture shows the Fig 11 BA other new targets in the series are:

    The Fig 11B



    The Fig 11M



    The Fig 11T



    All the above targets replace the original RAF Targets that caused then so many problems in the past.

    MiM, I see you have expanded on my original post on the Meandering thread. Brilliantly done. 10\10 for Creative excellence. :D

    You're both right. I couldn't find the post that gave me the idea, once I'd finished creating. I spent ages looking for it before I gave up and decided on this thread.

    I shot at my new Fig. 11, but it fell over.

    Can I have another one please?

    This would have been fun to read, but the fun police have blocked all the piccys. Can anyone fix them?
    If a man knows not and knows not that he knows not, he is a fool, shun him
    If a man knows not and knows that he knows not, he can be taught, teach him
    If a man knows and knows not that he knows, he is aslep, wake him
    But if a man knows and knows that he knows, he is a prophet, follow him

    Another sqn ldr person still serving seems to have a handle on the Service Pistol side as well

    And they've been struggling with the solution to JP's medal bars [more accurately, how to wear just the ribbon and a dozen rosettes] for years. Talented scrote

    Ahhh - happy days, watching Paddy Chambers' face as the RAF won the International SR at Little Rock ... against the US Army, USMC, USNG [combined, only a million pers to choose from], Canada, Australia ... and the British Army.
