To get some idea check out the prices on Soldier of Fortune http://www.sofmilitary.co.uk/shop-re-enactment-vietnam-us-category,784 -
OK wrapped pairs of batteries in tape, compressed the springs so they aren't as tall and 4 batteries went in easy. Nice and bright now.

thought so, it seems to be the springs in the battery holder are too strong.

I have a new Eotech 551. It claims to take 4x LR44 batteries. It only actualy seesm to take 2 of them It works but is very dim compared to my Eotech 552 that has a pair of`AA Batteries. Does anyone else have any experience with a 551? Are they dimmer? Are my batteries crap? Should it have 2 or 4 of them? Thanks

But what does it cover? if you take it as wearing a uniform at any time or just passing off a uniform or decorations etc to deceive or for gain? If it is wearing a uniform at any time then anyone who puts on Multicam or DPM is committing an offence.

Wearing the uniform is not an offence. trying to pass yourself off would be the offence. I say when playing soldiers who cares? Not that someone claiming Parachute Wings or a Green Beret or wearing an SAS badge wouldn't look a tit. Thousands of people regularly dress up in uniforms and insignia as part of a Re-enactment group and they even give themselves ranks, even award themselves Commissions. No one complains about that but they are just as much playing soldiers as an Airsofter

Some Civvie Mong? They are playing Soldiers like anyone who plays Airsoft. Do you call these 'Mongs' out on it?

Dastardly Unbelievable. Scammed by own family.
CaptainSwoop replied to AK47frizzle's topic in Off-Topic Discussion
Like all such schemes those that promote it further up the chain are very persuasive, they make it seem like the most amazing business opportunity ever and people that get suckered in are keen to share the good fortune with their friends and family. -
We used to go every year when I lived in London. it's a fantastic day.
