A question for the UK members with cadet knowledge between 1985 and 1990

[Peter Laidler]

You're right TBox. There was NO ban at all. If there was it will be recorded on ACI's The huge batches of RG and RL (that were issued along with HXP) weren't exactly the last dregs. That's a bit unfair to call it dregs! That and the belted .303 came from the HUGE Ordnance stocks at Bracht in Germany and kept the Cadet forces going for many years.

The yellow greased cloth impregnated paper stuff is called 'FABRICON'

The vast amounts of blue nosed bulletted blank was also brought back from germany too
