  1. Ignore the background? Fuck off, that's a brilliant album!

    Ignore the backdrop, area where we do 2nd hand photography is a state at the moment so it’s a back-room bodge! This was a Novristch SSP1 with a slide lock that would fall out (hilarious on the field) a thumb safety that would engage randomly (also hilarious on the field) and a slide that would rattle about so much that you could mistake the gun for a half full high capacity magazine. Now it’s a swish Tungsten-grey gnu with a handle on the side for faster pewing. I name it the Notritsch

  3. Tony Benn's stories about trying to specify the most efficient reactors when energy minister were well worth listening to. The civil service wanted Magnox, the arms industry wanted Magnox and Magnox is what we all got, and indeed still pay for. Fighting the civil service radicalised Benn. He went into politics a decidedly middle of the road kind of chap. The only state that uses Magnox now is North Korea. The last UK Magnox was only shut down in 2015. Lord only knows the extra cost over sixty years! As for the Thick of It, I remember it coming out all too well. After three decades of being involved in politics I was going for take the plunge working with one of the parties as a psephologist. My girlfriend saw In the Loop and went ballistic, claiming that everyone involved from Malcolm Tucker down was shagging each other. As for Brexit, I ordered my last TW shipment weeks ago. It weighed about as much as I do...

    Agreed. It was just the first thing to hand and it wasn’t very “airsofty” It’s what happens, fiddling away building guns inside of a Hi-Fi shop!

  5. Received and reassembled, the SSP1 is unrecognisable. As was predicted at the beginning, it’s a proper Trigger’s broom. I present the Notritsch

    THE TM MWS thread

    Not yet as I haven't even gamed with the everything in yet. I went though about 4-5 mags in ~7 deg weather as I had to empty them for storage and there wasn't an issue in single fire or quick double tapping. I did full auto to test it out and it got halfway through a second mag until it siezed open due to cooldown. I never play full auto anyway, so I should be fine. Plus, it will be nice having a complete bolt spare, I just need to order a new pin as it was the one thing I forgot. I can make a quick vid if you're interested in seeing it in action

  9. naff painjob, extra mag but boneyard, plus bonus internal damage. All available to you for 22 quid more than it is brand new on Taiwan gun, or a tenner more than it recently cost to have one shipped to my door. Oh, and you are expected to pay postage on top of that, so make that 20 quid more than a brand new one is shipped. I sometimes wonder whether people just get seriously ripped off buying these things new and somehow arrive at the conclusion that regardless of how much they are available from elsewhere they expect within a tenner of what they grossly overpaid for it. A second hand R36 is worth 80 quid in decent condition at best. And that's being kind.

  10. Actually that is how you THINK it works... But in fact Whitehall try to influence the politicians They (Senior Civil Servants @ Whitehall) don't care who wins the GE not really, Whitehall simply gets new puppets to play with & pull the strings You might think this is bit far fetched, but suggest you watch some episodes of "Yes Minister" which many retired servants & politicians have said it was pretty accurate of how it all works

  12. Not the spirit of the game. Do it once, raise a laugh perhaps. More than once is a bit naughty. Do it regularly and game days are spoiled.
