It was Ryes land and this idiot has went to him with rifle in hand - If he felt he was going to need it, then whats the problem with him being shot if he was expecting it, he went there thinking it could happen, it did happen so he has no-one to blame but himself.

Would it be treeible to not give troops bayonets?

If he went there with an AK he was looking for trouble, and that was exactly what he got. The guy got what he was asking for, you don't go to have an argument with someone whilst carrying a rifle - frankly he deserved it for his stupidity alone, people like that need removed from the gene pool.

They guy said it's a complete new rifle, not a upgrade. I couldn't find anything on google about it either so I'm torn between he is after all a army armourer : surley it would be in the news. All i can imajine is that maybe it'ss on the hush hush. Like I said if i get any more info I'll keep...

It is slowed down so wont break the sound barrier - i.e you get no supersonic 'crack' also because of the reduced powder measue to make it travel slow enough it is quite quiet when using a sliencer. So the initial bang is reduced and you don't have that loud 'crack'

Oh he could quietly park et and let it detonate whilst the cops are leaning against it eating their donuts.

Ahhhh, walther, thats the one I'm forgetting...dam all they have is P99 or ppk. Isn't there a nice semi out there somewhere! I always get Ruger mixed up.

Thanks Richard, I appreciate the detail in your post. I'm new to pistol, but not rifle shooting, I don't flynch with .308 so theres probally less chance of developing such bad habits with pistol since your holding it away from you rather than towards. I've decided against revolver but I'm...

The woman was a paranoid fool with too much time on her hands.

I see what you mean, but the exact same thing happened to me, but it's not a woman thing, rather the armourer giving his hard earned advice maybe a bit more forcefully because he 'knows' he's right. i.e I wanted a ruger 10/22 coz I just like the look of it, and he was pushy in saying I should...

Dumb to have even cops with empty guns, if they have a string from belt to gun it can't get sntached into the crowd. Either send them in loaded guns or no guns at all, it's either one or the other. In Northen Ireland you had your front row with shields & battons, and your second row didn't have...

I don't know about the firearms you've mentioned, though for what it's worth I always thought a Walther PPK (j-bond) always looked very handy.

In a low key kind of way it's quite popular in UK/Ireland. And because of guns = a sickness, falcons are used in some football grounds to clear the rafters of pigions...in a very politically corrrect natural way of course, not with evil guns.

My favourite line if someone was to muck me about like that is "Fine! if my moneys not good enough for you, thats just fine"...and walk out. Though maybe in his experiance didn't think the Sig was a good choice for you...and because he'd get more money selling you the sig, maybe he was being...

I looked for it on google too (thats where I got the G36 rumor from) but the bit a bout a new rifle rather than a SA80 upgrade was from the army armourer...but you know what it's like with soldiers...maybe someone got their wires crossed, but thats what he said, so I'll wait & see and tell you...
