    videos have randomly stopped working with firefox, work on steam and IE however. All "fixes" on the internet have failed to work far, tried a myriad of addons to fix the problem, none have worked. No video loads just a grey screen, using HTML5 only brought up the player but no video would load in it.

    Do you have addblock, sometimes running addblock can cause issues. Do you have a lot of software junk or on computer? sometime viruses can cause this problem. If you havnt yet try chrome, it is the best search engine in my opinion. Lastly check your firewall and security settings that might be blocking it. make sure your java and flash is uptodate aswell

    If you mean youtube, then they changed videos to play in high res and framerate. Firefox refused to make the changes to run this. Just change to chrome and it should be fine

    It's wierd how fast it goes. I think the community here has a lot to do with it, it's so easy to just merge and become a part of the forum effortlessly.

    Never gets any less soul crushing when you're outbid at the last second on ebay. Someone just got a good deal on a Carinthia 4, under 50 quid including postage.

    My internet got me... Had 30 seconds left and it took 20 to process a bid, by the time I saw I'd sent my next bid I lost :(

    nothing more annoying than people bidding before the last few seconds raising the prices.

    protip, there's an auto bid function.. so ALWAYS put the absolute highest you'd pay for it. if you're prepared to pay 51,63, put that, not 50.

    Anyone any good at taking measurements from photographs and care to hazard a guess at the length of a collapsed and extended m72a9 for me? All I can find online is that it's longer than an a2 but shorter than 80cm.

    Modernised LAWs are 980mm extended, 775mm collapsed. Original version 'Nam' versions of the LAW were 881mm extended and 630mm collapsed.

    Cheers Lads, got a bit of work ahead of me. The piece I was going to make my mould from is an m72a2 so It's going to need alot of modifiying before I can use it as a master for a cast prototype which will in turn be used for a fibreglass mould.

    Will be worth it in the end, in for a penny!

    Was a brillant film mate. Had my attention the whole way through, beautifully executed, no political bias both sides shown as corrupt and two faced. Really showed the human side of the war and that people were just caught up in it!

    Wish G&P would hurry up and dispatch my order to Zeroone so they can send it to me. Got all the parts waiting for my L119 build and no bloody gun to put them on lol

    This is really far off yet, but if I was to look into producing M72a7 or a9 replica's that were affordable (definetately sub £200, hopely sub £150 if I can do it cheaply enough) and that possibly fired nerf footballs, would anyone be interested? I'll be casting one for myself but I can make more if theres an interest

    The system I'm designing will allow you to use shower shells, fire nerfs or whatever you like from the barrel as it's all powered by a 203. The acm models are a bit wierd , a pain in the arse to reload and only fire these wierd pound shop esque foam rockets. They also don't look very realistic

    I would personally prefer just a shell, extremely strong shell though, so that I could fit my own internals.

    If you do make these and there is no risk of breaking if thrown from a second floor window, give me a shout, would quite happily put down a deposit.

    I'll be making both shells and ready to use launchers eventually Geoffrey. I'm looking at Materials at the moment, I can't see me getting a finalised version ready for sale any time soon as I want to make everything perfect. I wouldn't put my name to something I wasn't proud to say I made or wouldn't be happy to pay for myself. It's going to be a long road of Prototypes, but I'm confident I'll make it happen.

    AirsoftTed
    Pentagon assault packs any good? Looking at one as a cheap 3 day pack, UKtac stock them giving me confidence but the prices seem too good to be true.

    What you going for Bino? I'm looking at the £45 quid one, I reckon that and a set of PLCE should easilly hold 3 days worth of gear.

    well i bought one for 50 Quid and well..it sucked the stitching fell apart

    so i'm a bit wary on what to buy

    Do PRC 343's require a license or any of that stuff? Looking at buying my first radio and that would match my kit

    Circa 70 quid on ebay with some going for double and treble that. I saw a radio minus attenna on its own for £40 was thinking of going for that. If they're really that cack I'll sacrifice accuracy and get something else hidden in an ammo pouch

    at the end of the day, its your money and your load out. you may get away with it working some times but i would say if your going for a comms situation then its not very reliable. the problem you have as well is what sort of radios is the rest of your team gonna be using? VHF, UHF?? its a hard choice man, you will never get alot of distance out of a UHF, the PRR does have like 200+ channels so you are likely to connect to other UHF radios eventually. i wont tell you what to do but if your sp...

    So i've recently taken up shaving with a straight razor. First time I sliced my top lip, daren't not go near my throat after that. Wouldn't of known I'd cut myself if it wasn't for the blood the cut was so clean. 2nd time today, no blood, no cuts afaik but looked in the mirror 2 hours after, I've 4, "scratches" or cuts out of my throat, looks like I've tried to slice my own throat!

    Respect Teddy! I always use a brush and a decent cream and wet shave, never had the b*ll*cks to try the old school straight razor on myself, but I had it done a couple of times in barbers shops, good effort mate!

    Well today I re visited airfix models and I must say as an adult they're much more enjoyable now that I have patience and fine motor skills. Spent the whole day building a Cromwell tank, just sat and painted it over two pints of guiness, listening to luke kelly. Perfect night.

    I've been shuffling a bunch of boxed models around for ages. All 1/32 or 1/24 Revell WWII aircraft but also a huge number of the old AMT/ERTL Star Wars kits, some Stargate ones and a bunch of 1/6 and 1/4 scale vinyl figure kits (again mostly SF or comic related). Must actually make some time and put some together!

    I think a lot of the Stargate ones are not produced any-more :(

    Most of what I have isn't produced any more! Some of them are ebay finds, some have been kicking around my place for yeeeeeeeears! I have some nice 1/4 scale Screamin' Vinyl figures that went out of production about 15 years ago (Stormtrooper, Hellraiser Dr Channard cenobite). They're MASSIVE!

    Right thats me got my mind made up. Keeping my FR kit as it is, going to start a Brit kit after the new year. RM BRF or SBS, but I'm leaning towards the Pathfinders/Air assault also.

    That's going to be my next project as well.

    I know right, L119's are just beast! I've been sitting on the L119 thread on UKAZ just drooling!

    I was going to take up the guitar and start singing folk songs to entertain my self, then I realised I can't sing. The amount of Guiness that would need to be consumed to convince me otherwise would leave me incapable of playing any instrument. Ach, mo bhrón!
