Best thing I ever fired was the US M-14... such power and such a smooth operating system.
Absolutely No. 1 for me.

Blakes' 7 Liberator gun

Used to use curling-hair-thingy as a good proxy.

I remember watching Blake 7 as a young boy and throughly enjoying it.

Take care

I remember being in Australia at a Fencing training camp, we were sharing our floor of the accomodation block with a Chinese team. One evening we were all watching a period Australian drama, very Ned Kelly. The Chinese enjoyed it despite not speaking English. When that finished they managed to asked what was on next through a combination of mime and Fencing French.

Unfortunately the answer was .... Blakes 7 ... how do you explain that with only Fencing French and mime....

How about:

"C'est un documentaire sur la vie dans l'Ouest. Vous n'avez aucune idée de ce que votre gouvernement vous cache"*

That should cause some consternation


*It's a documentary about life in the West. You have no idea what your government is hiding from you

Unfortnately the Fencing French vocabularly is somewhat more limited:

Allé, halt,Touche à droit ....

Consternation, given how nervous they were and how they blanked us when anyone from the Embassy was around that could probably have got someone shot 

Thanks fsn; I actually knew that now that you mention it...

Cheers!
