One time I was wondering what that goop was inside the stick so I cut it open... and being afraid to touch it I stuck it in a plastic cup. It glowed and I went to sleep not thinking about it. When I woke up, the glowy stuff had melted through the plastic and gotten all over the top of my computer case. The moral - don't cut open glowsticks and put them in plastic cups.<span id='postcolor'> Re: Cutting open light sticks the oil that is contained in Glow sticks is known to be a carcinegen ie: say hello to Mr. Kemo because it causes cancer.

Mini-Electrics are a really bad idea. The have stupidly low power and are barely good enough for plinking They are about 1/4 the size of AEG's. and they don't burn very well either in that price range, get a springer.

Airsoft guns bought from HK passed though the Netherlands on the way to the UK because of an error by the courier Airsoft guns are banned in the Netherlands Hence the packages were intercepted and incinerated.

Yes there was a recent annoyance of the Netherlands misdirecting Airsoft kit getting shipped to the UK... to a really big fire.

Excellent LSW!

It really is Government logic at work Two young women are tragically shot dead by a sub machine gun (illegal iirc since 1968) Ergo its time we Introduce new laws about Replica's. *sigh* On the Brocock revolver BRILLIANT piece of journalism. The Police have gone to Brocock and requested they stop manufacturing them Brocock have said they will stop manufacturing them and now Newspapers call for a ban on manufacture.

I have to say (for once ) I agree with Tovarish. If the Soviets had knocked past the Multi-national forces in Germany, then I doubt quite a bit that anyone would give em a pat on the back and go home convinced "They wanted it more" You'd be growing a third arm before you knew what happened

We have Armed Police. Where is the need to give everyone who might come in contact with an armed criminal a gun. If you fire at a policeman then they will go away. Then they will come back with several heavily armed police entirely trained and prepared to hurt you if you don't do exactly what they say. This is not one big warzone. Several of the Armed Response Units in the UK, have never had to fire at anyone.

yeah I know but they host it and they are the only ones who have officially provided any background about it.

They are Russian It is Chechnya, 1996 KavKaz.org (which is currently down) host the clip with further details. It was a BTR-70, I don't have the clip anymore but you can notice it by the rear of the APC, and it was a command detonated device (hence why the APC is almost over it when it goes off and why some bugger is taping the whole lot, if you plant a mine you don't stick around to take pictures.) If you watch that clip you can see why they would ride on top, some of those guys outside could of survived, wouldn't be playing football again but anyone in that vehicle would of been killed, if not by the explosion then by becoming Airbourne infantry for a few seconds and getting thrown back down again. As for the OpFlash model (the point of this thread) I like it. If you could shoot from on top that would be great, but I think there would be some engine limitations there.

A lot of people are missing the point about this exercise. What else were they supposed to do? pat the guy on the back and go home for tea and medals? then there would be another article up here about how the US wasted $250m on a useless exercise that didn't even get off the ground.

Nice Only problems I could find were in the weapons, and as you say they're not finished I won't criticise Merry

Wow thats a first I was right

In your system BIOS it is still set to look to boot from the CD first. Go into the BIOS settings (press del during the memory test at the start) and look in iirc advanced settings, look for something like CDROM, C and change it to C, CDROM and then it will stop doing that. If you can't find it, look harder! (or in the other settings in the BIOS)

Mussolini picked picked his tank designs using the highly sophisticated IP-DP method. (oops, missed a I in there somewhere )

On grenade launchers The Sun Project one loads bb's into holes on the front, gas at the bottom. The Aluminium shell does not leave the launcher. It has a longer range, and the whole look of it firing produces a "Oh shit" effect. you can also I hear get 165 rnd shells (as in one pull of the trigger sends 165 bb's flying) There are big legal issues with devices which propel a explosive device in the UK, for rather obvious reasons if you happen to sound Irish.

As mentioned some took off vertically from the atlantic conveyor to join the Carriers when the first harriers lost. If taking off from a converted container ship, surronded (thats spelt wrong I think but hey its 10 past midnight) by containers set up as a makeshift armour, in the pitching seas of the South Atlantic isn't operating in poor conditions, I'd love to hear a what is 5 Sea Harriers and 3 GR.3's were lost, 3 Sea Harriers were lost in accidents All of the others were shot down by ground fire. (a point I might add against UK's JSF being used in the close air support role, and for the Army Air Corp's Apache's) By the way one of the accidents mentioned on that article, a Harrier losing power and falling into the sea That Harrier was at a Grand altitude of about, five feet If it had not been at an airshow and operating at such a insanely low altitude, the pilot could probably of recovered the aircraft. It was raised recently and was in remarkably good condition considering it had a fast one way trip to the bottom

You've got to admit that would be just a little bit fun
