i'd like to try that martin henry. i don't know anything about guns but it looks pretty mean. i was looking at the guns and thinking that bayonet has always been one of my fears! like i'm fine dodging bullets, but i don't wanna get stuck with a bayonet. i'm sure it doesn't hurt like i think it does. i have an aversion to being stabbed i guess?

[Hagar88]

The zulu knew all about the bayonet.

[Sevenpointfive]

damn! they got both the martini and the bayonet. that's not fair. there should be a rule. it's gotta be a fair fight. i hate pussies who hide

[Hagar88]

The zulu generally out numbered the British

[Sevenpointfive]

i suppose someone has to win in the end

Gonna have to go step gun, all time classic and super cool.

[Hagar88]

Cheap to make too.

[Reapous]

Exactly, and at that time period that’s what you would’ve wanted.

[Hagar88]

Think the grease gun was better though. The Sten was cheaper at $10 but and the grease gun at $15-20 but then the British didn't make the grease so the Sten could have been cheaper because of cheaper labour costs in Britain.

Sten gun.
You can make it with a steel sheet bender, steel files and you can cut rifling with a simple lathe in every metal workshop. Than you can pump a lot of lead in nazis, of course they shouldn't stand too fat away, because Sten gun is a lead spitter not a precision tool

The L85 or SA80 is junk. Don't get me wrong Hecklar and Koch did a great job ironing out all its problems, basically replaced most of the parts but the design flaws still remain. I get it that in 1980 when released it was probably better on paper at least because it had an ACOG scope as standard on every rifle but the MOD should have scrapped the whole thing and bought the C7 an M16 variant that Canada uses. The L85/SA80 was too heavy and clunky, with project grey burn it looks like they are going to adopt an M16/M4 variant for the British army and its going to come down to manufacturer.

Was never standard issue secret service. They certainly used them but they also used browning high powers and m1911s.
