Greetings from sunny Romford!

#1 Post by Phantom Bubbler »

Hi All,

Thought I ought to say hello, as I have been nosing around for a while. :wave:

Just finding out more information before I try and join a local club or the NRA, as I haven't done any proper shooting(only bits and pieces) since the old L98A1 at school. Ahhhh the good old days[25 years ago FFS!!!!], cue the flashbacks!! kukkuk

Hi and welcome to another 'plastic pig' veteran. For some perverse reason I have deranged thoughts about trying to own one from time to time. I hope that you don't have this affliction!!

How many did you used to break each time out? At least two used to end up with broken cocking handles, firing pins or rounds stuck in the chamber (when firing blanks).
The above post probably contains sarcasm or some other form of attempted wit, please don't take it to heart.

I don't remember them breaking all the time, but it was a long time ago. Maybe the fact that I have no wish to ever own one is my subconsience reminding me of how sh!t they were!

Oh and thanks for the welcome everyone. sign92
