well, as long as you think that, then its ok..........


i always felt sorry for prince william, when he did his basic training.... when they were on the range, and the training officer yelled 'fire at will'

Its all one mahoosive range, the bovington-lulworth-wool area.

They used to fly the Apaches on the ranges out there. The locals got annoyed with them flying round at night so bought a bunch of those gazillion watt candle power torches and shone them at the aircraft during night trials.

Clever, considering they were live fire exercises :roll:

[mowgli]

so back to my previous point..... is there a non sudden form of gunfire???

[claire6069]

yes, when you're warned about it lol

[mowgli]

it still appears pretty bloody suddenly out of the end of the barrel........

[Sloth]

"im going to shoot you"

"ok cheers for the warning, i'll call for the ambulance now"

"no worries"

BANG!!!!
