That looks about the same size as the ones we had for GI Joe ( or Jerry ) back in the sixties.

Yeah it will be the same size - they're all the right size for my figures, which are about Action Man sized (same as GI Joes?)

I've bought a few spare parts though just for the guns/hats etc, but I have five German figures and one Soviet guy too.

I think your fascination with the 3rd Reich  :hitler: may bother Randy as much as his latent desires  :shamone: do. In the 3rd Reich they probably shot people for playing tug of war with cyclops in the Library.

It was great Soph, the Uzi put them where I shot but the trigger was a little mushy and I didn't like the sights. With the Thompson the trigger and sights were outstanding and burst control was a breeze.

I'd like to try a Uzi. :orly:

They're pretty illegal everywhere, right? :-\

 ??? No, why would they be? You can have a .50 heavy machine gun legally in the US if you like, though it takes some paper work and money to get them. It's not like Sweden where you get busted for having pepper spray.

Actually in about 40 states here it is possible to get a license to own. That involves sending paperwork and fees to the ATF and having a background check completed. The next step is to either have the local Police Chief, in a city, or Sherrif if you live in an unincorporated area sign off on it. If the local Jefe refuses to sign then a corporation can be formed and the gun assigned to the corporation.  If you ever get to SF or Sacramento in California or Reno in Nevada odeon let me know. Here in the Bay Area I have no Class III rock n Roll items, but we can rent them in Reno. Here in SF Bay Area you could shoot some of my Glocks, HKs etc if you wanted. It's a fucking blast.

They're probably illegal in most of Europe or at least it's impossible to get a license for one, yes. And this was in a gun store somewhere in Nevada, I think.

You can get a Glock legally in Sweden too, but it's not worth the effort if you're not really, really into shooting. It's harder to get a Glock legally in Sweden than a .50 machine gun in most of the US. And it's only allowed to use it in a shooting club. No right to carry whatsoever.

My dad owned some sort of hand weapon acquired during his army days in Finland. Can't remember the make but it was Finnish army issue, pretty big, a lot like the guns movie Germans always point at people. You know what it might have been, Lit?
