ArtistsRifles Posted August 2, 2006 Share Posted August 2, 2006 Digging through the web for info on the trusty old RL's I came across this: Any one else remember these? We had some loaned to us whilst on exercise in Denmark in the early to mid Seventies. Wonder if the Danes ever sold them off - and if so - where they went????

ArtistsRifles Posted August 2, 2006 Author Share Posted August 2, 2006 They were - one of the best/nicest cabs of the era - no draughts or leaks :lol: All it is was a standard Bedford RL with a unique to Denmark top to the cab. One of the other plus points was the ability to carry a weapon mounted on the ring atop the Cab!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Farrant Posted August 2, 2006 Share Posted August 2, 2006 One of the reasons for altering the cab top half was to give it a bigger diameter hip ring to go with the gun mount. There was one of these in the Danish club's camp at Beltring last year. Richard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArtistsRifles Posted August 2, 2006 Author Share Posted August 2, 2006 Shame I missed it! Wouldn't have minded getting my hands on one too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snapper Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 I saw one at Beltring a few years ago and failed to snap it. I think they look brilliant. I think the Danes scrapped them and/or sold them off to the third world. cheers Snapper (Mark B) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
