You're Sten should be called 'Stella'

What about Maggie? High iron content and not suitable for Minors

She looks like a Sophie.

Bespoke engraved grips from VZ finally arrived at the weekend.

 

[Monty]

Those are gorgeous. How much were they?

 

[TheFull9]

Cheers. Not sure of the exact figure off the top of my head, something like $110-120 before any shipping/tax.

What the symbol out of interest? Something you can up with or what?

Look great by the way

I like to take a page out of Warhammer 40,000 and Team fortress 2 for gun names,I've finally settled on ''Litany of Litany's Litany'' for my rifle instead of the cringy shit I've considered before. Pistol still remains Whore's breath or The Pot Metal Pulverizer

I call my m4, m4.

It's all related to the symbols and graphics used to display hazard warnings related to explosives. Generally seen on storage containers/buildings and trucks transporting any type of explosive materials be it civilian stuff all the way through small arms ammunition up to aircraft bombs and plastics. It's all very inter-linked with the air force armament trade, we tend to get lots of custom apparel, coins, cufflinks etc done up using the same basic symbolism.

Within the military it'll generally be labels like these all over everything we work with or on:

I picked 1.1 for the engravings because that's the most dangerous stuff with the most cool factor. Stuff like P7, 500-2000lb bombs, air-to-air missiles, claymores etc would fall under the 1.1 category. The larger numbers represent lesser hazards, so 1.3 for example is just a fire hazard rather than all out explosion, things like smoke grenades and large flares.

Thank-you for the insight CK

LAW finally working although it can still use some work.

It fires these:

 

[Ian_Gere]

Give us a linky for those missiles, please mate. I've recently bought a model LAW from another member on here and I plan to make it skirmishable eventually.

 

[TomC]

It may not look like much... but it's mine all mine!

Sorry for crappy phone picture

 

[TacMaster]

We all start somewhere, mate

Been after one of those for ages couldnt find any in the uk for less than 300, I'm going to make my own, just getting the second pipe so I can start. Pocket nerfs fit I've heard and are about 4 quid each.

 

[Ian_Gere]

I'm thinking that a CO2 moscart might be the way forward. Maybe driving a piston rather than the gas pushing the missile directly.

Was that from the guy who was selling all of those replicas and springers a while ago?
