  1. Is that a pfc carbine? "model gun"?
  2. Yep i agree with you on that. Being an airsofter in the past and in to military land rovers i see the stuff swapping hands all the time on facebook groups . But orders or orders and they have to be seen to be doing there job as a friend told me who's a cpl in the r.m.p's .
  3. The military police have and or now looking at sellers on ebay and other forums for mtp pcs and the s95 cut as its still protected by crown copy rights . The gear that's for sale could be from people leaving the forces or have just done a deployment and told to keep the gear after coming back if they are reservists. I got to keep all my gear after coming back from op telic but it was in a bad way it ended up in the bin. But some could be nicked from the stores. Or from people serving. I got all mine from a friend that had done his 22 but that's all im saying. :red:
  4. To be honest with you nz2. Everyone gets different adds at the top due to it being google, so what ever you have been looking at in the week before will pop up as an add on here or your facebook or some on line news channel places like that. You can get a download that blocks adds but i am not sure where you get them from as the adds don't really bother me that much.
  5. Picture number 2 object on the left is the periscope clamp x1 you need the other for a complete clamp. Picture 1 is the base plate for the L85.A1/A2 rifle clamp. And c.v.r.t. crews never got issued the L22 only charlie2 crews and some other units .
  6. Good film.............Yes Best bond?..........Yes Win an Oscar?......doubtful I would get it on dvd when it comes out its worth it. But wouldn't pay to see it again at the cinema. There's not many brits would not enjoy this film but not sure about the rest of the world. (",)
  7. I would rather crap in my hands and clap for an hour than watch that programme. :shocked:
  8. I think this is the same place, hard to tell though. http://www.milweb.net/classifieds/large_image.php?ad=63933&cat=1
  9. Does this mean digital camo was developed back in the 40's ? If it works then i say go with it in the snow. :cheesy:
  10. I remember watching a police programme on ch5 , and they followed a Ferrari for a mile as their police computer was coming back saying it was a toyota mr2 ?. It was a professionally built kit car and the owner hadn't claimed this with his insurance provider. When the police where happy he had insurance and all his paper work where in order they sent him on his way. So do modifiers really need to worry as long as its road worthy and not falling apart at the road side. Just my 2 pence worth .
  11. So do you hold the southern military expo in Gibraltar if this is the northern expo :cheesy::cheesy::cheesy:. Shame your not on my door step though .
  12. "Cough" tracked artillery"Cough" Very nice tank you have there :-D
  13. Years ago my father was ripped of by a conman who bought a camcorder for £600, he paid by cheque and gave an address in the stockton area . So naturally the cheque bounced and we took a trip down to the address , the owner said it happens at least twice a month that someone knocks at his door asking for there money back. And i sent an email to milweb about 6 months ago regarding someone selling a walther p38 pistol claiming it to be an original de-act 1940's pistol, but the picture was clear to see it was a replica . But i never got a reply.
  14. But rusty on my signals but has it not got something to do with two 353's tied together in a re-broadcast set up?
  15. I wasn't to happy with the way they spoke to Bob the previous owner . Like you say the grass was the same length as the rest around it and it wasn't patchy in colour then they have set out to make the old gent out to be stupid. Nice way to treat a veteran of ww2 :mad:
  16. Just came across this channel on youtube, Not watched it yet so don't no what its like. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VcF9iN___nU
  17. Cheers Andy. I really don't know why i act surprised after all the M.L.R.S. is sat on a bradley chassis . And we had the M107 M109 in service with the royal artillery.
  18. Its still on the iplayer http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/p00jrhyh/Tuesday_Documentary_Death_or_Glory/
  19. I never new the British army used U.S. reo style whistler trucks? . Could it be 50 missile battery royal artillery that was in the programme using them?.
  20. Looking forward to seeing this completed. Thank you for sharing the restoration. :saluting:
