    There's already a thread on this in the weapons section, I'm on my tablet at the moment so can't easily copy the link. The report to the European Commission apparently states that at least one of the weapons used in the Charlie Hebdo shootings was reactivated. Andy Sent from my SM-T310 using Tapatalk

    This is a 4.5" Mk.6? Can I ask why you're interested? A frigate in the back garden perhaps? :-) Andy

    Have you tried VMARS? www.vmars.org.uk Andy

    If implemented, the proposal would remove that distinction for a deactivated automatic or "military" weapon and the words on the deactivation certificate would become meaningless. Andy
  5. andym
    Agreed, but that only refers to changes in deactivation standards, not the apparent decision to outlaw existing deactivated Section 5 weapons. Andy

    As I read it, not just deac small arms, but anything with a turret even if deactivated. In the meantime I'm sure the terrorists are quaking in their boots. :-( Andy

    Whatever method you choose, for a couple of vehicles it would probably be easier/cheaper to pay someone who does it for a living? Andy

    Those six pin jobbies definitely look like Larkspur harness cables. And yes, the BNC cable is worth saving but you may have to cut a couple of inches off the open end if it's been left anywhere damp. BNC connectors are readily available and pretty easy to fit. Andy

    Aka Jaguar-V Andy

    Isn't this one: the same connector as the K60 alternator control boxes? Quite useful if so. Andy

    This is in danger of turning into a sales and wants thread, but do you have a cable with the small 3 pin female Bowman type MIL-C-38999 connector (NW0998FNO)? It's used for power on some of the Abbot BATES equipment. Andy

    A 352 in Position D, then. I think the radio carrier slots on to the end. Andy
  14. andym
    At a guess as I can't see all the boxes, possibly the PRC320 kit for Position D in an FV432? Andy

    Luckily it's in the Daily Mail, so no-one will believe it anyway! :cool2: (All above comments about safety noted and agreed) Andy

    That's the one that Ian Evans was after recently on the 432 Forum - it's the FV430 PPJ engine services plug. (And I might be interested in some of the other bits!) Andy

    I think you'll find that "Anna" is for real. A combination of an amateur presenter and a dire script, probably what you get if you accept the lowest tender! Andy

    Have you tried the usual suspects such as http://marcusglenn.com/ or http://www.thexmod.com/ ? Andy

    The perceived wisdom is that you shouldn't use modern OAT antifreeze in old engines. Stick with a traditional IAT type, usually blue in colour. Andy Sent from my SM-T310 using Tapatalk

    And going back to the original question, the US must have copied the tradition as their ships have 5" guns. Andy

    That's before next month's SDSR, of course .... Andy

    So why in the UK does the army have metric artillery (105mm, 155mm) while the RN has imperial guns such as the 4.5" Mk.8? Andy
