I saw one of these video's where that wild old colonial in the IQ reducer cap was telling us in the civilised world that the BAR was better than the Bren. Someone needs to give him a stiff talking to................ Something better than a Bren....... I should coco!
If I hear that again, I'll get send a gunboat over there and take the Americas back. That'll teach them a lesson!
Dont forget the flingy thingy

Agree. That was pathetic. Takes the rifle off his shoulder to reload, actually lets go of the bolt knob at one point and flips it back and then grasps it again.

I think it was 1886 the French started with smokeless powder.
Well before the yanks copied the 30-06 from the German 8X57 round,
and OH yes the springfield was also a COPY of the Paul Mauser rifle
that knocked the stuffing out of the yanks in a little fight with I think it was the Spanish.
I read that the yanks lost a court battle over paying the compensation to Paul Mauser for copying the pattern, and still did not pay up using, I think, the excuse the Germans started WW1.
Tikka T3 Tac. Enfields No1mk3*, No4mk1 T, No4mk1*T, M.H. 577/450s. K31. MAS 36s. Mausers G98s, 1908, M48, BSA 222 (Mauser action) .22 match arms. black powder. 1873 11mm. Webley 455 MKI.MKIVs,MKVI. Spanish .44,10.35s,OP 455s

Have you not heard both the Governer General and PM gigs down here are now a role for women.
How can a woman represent the Queen????? :-)
Happy to see you get the role if you do actually sort out the gun laws.

Not only was the 8mm Lebel the first ctg adopted by a nation to use smokless powder (1886) it was the first to use a boat tail bullet in 1898.
Why use a 50 pound bomb when a 500 pound bomb will do?
