So, do more fishes have a greater appreciation of the power of a 30mm chain gun that I work on occasionally?
I understand Elephant Gun, Assault Rifle, Hunting Rifle but chains?

The rabbit? He’d only nipped out for a bunch of carrots.There’s a black and white photo of my younger brother with the shotgun over one arm, holding up a dead rabbit by its ears. He’s got a stern expression on his face, but the effect is somewhat ruined by the fact that he’s wearing carpet slippers.
Tony, are you an armourer? I thought you were avoinics/airframes?
Heaven knows how it would feel to hear one approaching knowing its after you, bloody terrifying.
It keeps you young - well, that's the theory anyway.In the RAF I was airframes. With BAe in Saudi I was hydraulics/pneumatics, and at Wattisham I’m everything except avionics/electrics. So, airframe, engines, fuel systems, armament etc.
It’s a refreshing change, and quite a challenge. Helicopters are completely different to fixed wing, and the Apache is my first. After nearly 13 years I’m still learning, every day.

My OCD kicks in well with firearms and safety drills. It makes sense. We also did lots of training on 'other weapons', as part of my job was to go to local stations and clear handed in weapons. I saw some amazing stuff handed in , including so very good condition webley .45 cal pistols. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Webley_Revolver
The rounds handed in with those - frightening.
