Pistols are a great backup weapon or for close quarter combat, but no replacement for a good rifle! Â <span id='postcolor'> Exactly, the pistols open up a whole new area of the game such as Police and closer-in fighting.

I am all for supporting charities but I can't see how this works, I have given 2p apparently.

The flight model is good though.

This is called a "chest rig" design. The purpose of chest rig is to put the magazines over the vital organs of the soldiers. This way the full magazines provide cheap ballistic protection for the soldier. Each of the big pockets can accomodate 2 AK magazines. Different models of Vests<span id='postcolor'> So I assume the pockets just look small because they are empty?

It isn't called the Mother of Parliments for nothing. I couldn't give a fig for other countries governmental systems but I know that the British one is one of freedom and stability. A deal more than many in the world. If Britain had come up with the first communist state I wouldn't support that, infact I would hate it. You must realise that I am not simply a jingoistic moron who supports Britain's instiutions because 'they are British', I support them because they work, not something that can be said of the Soviet system.

The IDF have just detonated "the largest explosive ever to be brought into Israel". Good work there.

They can make good course instructors though. My instructor was an Airborne MCpl with the Q.O.R. He knew what we needed to know, so when he was teaching, he would cut out all the B.S. and let us get to the more interesting stuff.

I have no links or pics to show it, put a family of 7 were killed when a Japanese parachute bomb landed outside their farmhouse door. They went to investigate and it exploded killing them all. Most of the parachute bombs never even got close to America. It was just their bad luck it landed near them.REMEMBER, THIS IS FROM THE TOP OF MY HEAD, ACTUAL FACTS MAY DIFFER.<span id='postcolor'> Baloon bombs, someone mentioned them.

Are there any Japanese modern troops around? and faces.
