Give me a big enough hammer and a place to stand and I could fix the world.
i'll kill a man in a fair fight or if i think he's going to start a fair fight or over a woman or.......
a problem shared is a problem halved ,but an advantage shared is no advantage at all
if a job's not worth doing then its certainly not worth doing well































No mate, as much as i'd love to have gunman as my local I was referring to spec ops
Yep,Mike as been lusting after mine since he first saw it.

Hehe, quite a while back Josh managed to get his hands on one of the lovely Trapper Industries built ones. It was being sold in his shop - don't know which lucky lad (or lady) got it!

steady on simon,only one third yours,oh can you pm me you'r adress so i can send some paint samples,i've found what i think will be the perfect paint ,it's a perfect match for some of the sterling's i've seen ,it's that crinckly finish that was used on all sorts of thing's sutch as cameras ,dashboards and all sorts of other thing's dureing the cold war period but i dont think it will come out in a photo verry well.i should mention to the rest of the world at large that fremsley wants a more cold war look.


actually that came out better than i thought it would,what do you think?

Maybe a sub-group for the over 40s should be formed to help us reminisce about the old days
We could call ourselves the old comtemtables or something?
Although I am not 40 until the 8th of march I do feel very old sometimes especially when I take my 13 year old son airsoft

a few details of the hop,just made the hop arm's in triplicate .they pivot from what was the mounting screw hole but as these are so well mounted anyway i thought i'd use the old hole ,its countersunk on the back and a threaded hole in the hop arm,no need for locking as the screw sits flush with the mounting block at the back.the adjustment will be from a grub screw on top of the gun,i've done this before on my sten's and it doesent draw the eye to mutch and is easy to adjust.

it takes three ,that' the magic number.(de-la soul another oldie)
nothing really new just in triplicate,3 gearboxes modified and upgraded,3 hop units modified,3 frong gearbox and hop mountings ,3 muzzles.i was getting a little ahead with the prototype so its been catch up time for the others.

new bits ,upper part of hand grip,has to be a compromise in design to allow the gearbox to fit,meaning it extends to far toward the rear and will be combined with the stock pivot point when finished.



no detail as yet but will also have a working selector switch.

To the tune of "Mademoiselle from Armentières"
Napoleons army ran away, As you do
The guard stood firm for Frances Pride, As you do
They said the guard will stand and die
But we heard what their Colonel cried
It wasn't pretty I tell you.




Resistance is fertile
