Terrible luck mate, I feel for you and I wish you a speedy recovery, but then again a year will pass in no time and I imagine after an op like that you will need to start very gently at first so as not to damage it again. Maybe it would be wise to knock rugby on the head maybe, to stop you recieving...

I hope I'm ready for it mate, I have been doing 3 milers for quite a while now, but just before christmas I injured my knee quite badly so had to have a break for abouout 6 or 7 weeks which scuppered me progress. But got back into it in early Jan and have now moved up to doing just over 3 and a half...

You have gone way off topic on this one, read the thread title then reassess the above argument.

fair one, but is their any need to ask questions in such an ignorant uppety way?

Profile is outdated, my experience is with the TA in a para and commando roled regiment. In my time with them I have handled a lot of weapons for varying reasons, so I do have a bit of an idea as to what I'm talking about when I state facts like this. I have said above I never intended to get into a...

OK, I wasn't even trying to get into a pissing contest with you on this, I don't know what you do, but if you say so, I don't particularly care, you do what you do I do what I do. Despite me stating simple facts you have come out guns blazing looking for a pissing contest....that is what really grip...

I don't read any geeky magazines mate. All my experience with HKs is with working out on them down on the range, just happens that our REME gun fitter used to work for HK so knows them inside and out and passed his knowledge on to me and others. Being a part of the ISTAR element it pays to know your...

Boom Boom!

Well, I believe we put over 500 rounds through it mag after mag without any stoppages or any hint of a problem at all, but I will state this was on a lovely summers day on beckingham ranges so hardly the most testing of environments but none the less, I have no doubt in my mind that my L85A1 would n...

That was back before I had any real experience with a number of weapons and I was repeating pretty much what I had read so disregard it. It is however true that Kalashnikov designed the weapon with simplicity and easy production in mind to allow the weapon to be produced in vast numbers to arm poorl...

In the only company assault I've done in the TA (artillery you see) to be honest, things got a little bit confusing and I can fully understand the point about being careful of moving on the flanks for fear of wandering into another platoons AO and being engaged or getting in their way. On the ex. th...

Supatanka you are one boring, impressionable, pre pubescent piece of idiocy. Yes yes it's been well documented by such fine examples of literary genius as the sun and the NOTW? Are you real? HOw would the SBS KNOW they had Osama for sure and not a lookalike doppleganger decoy type fella. I don't dou...

Surely the TRF will alleviate the need to have the big chad Royal Airforce badge on your chest.
