Are you still planing on selling your tank?

[TANKS] Re: we need to recruit more people

2009-11-14 Thread ?

In another thread someone suggested that the Sherman is likely the
most recognizable among non tank enthusiasts, no doubt it would be a
good vehicle to offer if kits were produced...

[TANKS] Re: next UK battle

2009-11-14 Thread Chris Malton

Have fun next weekend guys.  Sorry I can't be there. 

This time it's a case of actually needing to be in two places at once.

If only everything was a little less hectic right now

I contracted eBay-itis last night and bought
"Lot of 4 Precision Ground 6mm Prem Airsoft Paintballs"
Item 350276782052

The vendor states "Not recommended for use in AEG guns"
(automatic electric guns).

I will scrounge around for a spring fired Airsoft pistol.
We shall see if they truly are "precision ground" and
"premium".

I would be pleased to send a batch to any members who
have a Hen Long or clone tank to test.

I don't have a problem with shooting up infantry or soft-skinned
vehicles with 6mm paintballs...  but with some mention of them being
used on vehicles that mounted machine guns, I'd not want the hits
counted against armour. (Not picking on you, Callum, several people
have mentioned it)

I mean, I LOVE the M113 ACAV, but I can't imagine it acheiving a
mission-kill against a tank, even a WW2 (or even WWI) one.

6mm paintballs would be interesting as a secondary weapon anyway. Even
a very impractical one. Whats the largest paintball you can get???
AS90 self propelled gun anyone? 6mm i guess could be interesting on
any humvees etc that dont have tow missiles.
