Re: L129A1 SHARPSHOOTER
Hey, about time you posted! You shooting at Barton Road at the end of the month?
The L129A1 looks a bit RoboCop to me but if it does the job..

Re: L129A1 SHARPSHOOTER
according to a lad ive just recently got through his bike test (infantryman from the Rifles) the sharpshooter has already been withdrawn from service due to unreliability ... broken firing pins etc ..

Re: L129A1 SHARPSHOOTER
Bring back the SLR indeed, and welcome to the forum ZZR1100. So what sort of bike do you ride :) I guess you and White boy have a bit in common, he shoots, took all my old fly fishing gear and fly tying stuff has just passed his bike test.
Not sure about his choice of first bike tho..... :lol:

Fazer 600, my first bike, excellent bit of kit if the downpipes don't rust through!
I wrote a car off with it....
