DarkLight 0 Posted December 6, 2003 One of my friends has a lot of WWI and WWII stuff, he has medals, guns, bullets, helmets, clothes, bajonets (if that's the right word in english), and a lot more.  He spends a lot of his money on this stuff.  Here in Belgium you can buy pretty much everything, i can buy Thompsons, M1s, Bazookas, LAWS, .50 callibres (you know those pretty fucking big machineguns), grenades, helmets, medals, clothes, scopes, and A LOT more. Hell i once even saw a M16 for sale, it had one of those laser things on it.  And most of it doesn't cost that much...  I was able to buy a beautiful scope used by a German sniper during WWII for only €10!  The scope could zoom from x2 to x7, it was a beautiful thing.  I still think it's stupid that i never bought it... You can buy this stuff here on markets, all they sell there is WWII stuff... Oh well, i have some helmets, a lot of bullets (some big shells too, they're about 50 - 80cm i think, i have smaller ones and bigger ones), an american grenade and some clothes of WWII.  It's somewhere in a box in my room, dunno where.  I don't really collect this kinda stuff anymore.  The only thing that i will never sell of my whole collection is a bullet that i found somewhere on the beach.  I was walking on the beach and all of a sudden i saw it lying there, it's full of rust and there's pieces of stone stuck to it and that's exactly what i like about it.  It's not the shiny metal of a bullet that has never been fired, it's the old rusted metal of a bullet that HAS been fired The fact that i found it there on the beach where once men fought and died... that's the only reason why i keep it.  Because i know for sure that this bullet has been fired by one of those men... don't care if it was an enemy soldier or an allied soldier... both deserve respect...

Baron von Beer 0 Posted December 9, 2003 Well, one of the 2 SAMs has "Dummy" printed on it. Imagine it was a, well, dummy, made either for display, or training purposes. You can find deactivated weapons like that pretty easily. If they are real, well, a man has a right to protect his home. He just happens to be worried about heavy armor and ground attack aircraft, rather than the run of the mill burglar. (Or even the not so run of the mill armed to the teeth burglar that a good civilianized assault rifle can drop) Sure, you think he's paranoid, but just wait till that T80 shows up in YOUR front yard... you'll be thinking, damnit, I knew I should have bought that all inclusive home defence system from the Arms Bazzare last summer... Came with a TOW II launcher with 8 missiles, 48 Claymores, 500' of concertina wire, and 12 phoogas drums w/ detonators...all for just 12 easy payments of $1999.99 *sigh*, live and learn...

If there's one thing I've learned from OFP, it's to fire an RPG at a person you're trying to get rid of, especially if you'll have 2 more remaining. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
