[QUOTE="Ian M, post: 71874, member: 25"] Ian, Way back in the dark ages we were actually allowed to RENT handguns by the day for practice while attending the matches at Bisley - we were hosted by an outfit called the Honorable Artillery Company and they had a small armories. I recall a lot of 9mm ammo being stored in the armories and a lot of it getting blasted in the rented break-open Weblies. Doubt that they rent handguns to Canucks these days! Seem to recall an experiment to see if a rolled-up bunk mattress would silence and stop a 9mm bullet - started the **** thing on fire is what happened. Really enjoy the memories when they come wafting back [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img] Couple of years ago we visited Stonehenge, seems that there was a military facility just down the road - have you fellows ever been there? ian [/QUOTE]
