    Re: Another gun query - looks a bit tasty...

    Another problem with it was that when you were attacking the enemy, you had to rely on them throwing the projectiles back before you could go on with the final assault.
    "Hurrah for the Works Group" just doesn't have the same ring...

    "A volunteer is worth ten pressed men."
    So, a TA battalion or nine Regular Guards battalions? Not a difficult choice, then (especially as we don't have nine Regular Guards battalions).

    Funnily enough, it's probably best suited to left-handed firers. Just like the SA80 (apart from the ejection).

    Just in case anybody fancies downing their SA80 and sticking this in their comfort box, to take on the Taliban one-handed:

    only a couple weeks pay!

    my friend is going to ask you some questions. personally, I hope you don't answer them because I want you to die in here and end up inside a pork pie!

    So's the SLR, but people seem to want that back

    Sorry, if there's no flamethrower, then it's not 'old school' enough.
