The UK's Finest Independent Forum for Shooters and Gun Owners. Est 2010.

Anyone seen any of the episodes?

Another thread on here, the "what to wear at Bisley" thread, reminded me of Bruce Crompton turning down the purchase of a fez from the WW2 Muslim SS. He said that was too dark a history for his liking. I do agree with B.C regarding the fez, not something I would like to own however I do think we should be allowed to wear what we feel comfortable wearing when shooting.

Combat Dealers, same set up as all the other similar shows, not bad to watch on a lazy Sunday though.

We watched a few episodes of "Da Vinci Machines" this weekend. Not bad.

I quite enjoyed "Combat Dealers" - a lot more credible than the usual noisy hyped-up US-origin crap, and the lack of mandatory heavy guitar background "music" is a blessing.

Bruce Crompton is a classic eccentric - made me think of Alexei Sayle at times.

I have it on series link, it's good.

He seems to be highly knowledgeable geezer and I am quite a fan, I have learnt a fair bit as well.

Hes an ex para , have you seen the one where him and his para mates dropped into Arnhem for D Day . he bought all original gear for it .

They were filming the next series at this years W&P show and I was watching him act out some cheesy lines in Fjordhouse's huge ammo tent, I like the program but it's very staged.
