On wikipedia, it says "medium range", whatever that is. Wikipedia has failed me agin

[Hugo Windstone]

I'd say... Around that of 10-20 feet? Perhaps? (Another damn guess)

[Alderon]

YES! I did it! I didnt fail the chemistry exams. +20 "högskole poäng" to me.

[Rolo]

safe range on blanks is 30 feet, although we're told if we're on area's where there might be civilians (dog walkers and the like) and we see them, we have to aim off at 100 feet. Ultimately it means shit, atleast in the British Army due to the Blank Firing Adaptors ( big yellow things on the end of the gun) on the rifles which allow them to fire as fully and semi automatic. These block the ends of the rifles so that the gases produced by the firing of the cartridge can recycle and reload the next round. Veg can prolly tell you more considering his life is working on these rifles. And it isn't really that bad, if you get shot point blank in the face, its going to be damned dangerous but otherwise you'll just end up with a nasty rash, a load of molten metals come out the end causing it. I've come back off of excercises with huge rash's along my face where the dick next to me on the firing line has been shooting right across me. If you have some common sense, there is no way you can be killed by blanks.

Infact I'ma be putting this into practice this weekend doing Fibua in wales, ranges for shooting will be smaaaalll.

[Hugo Windstone]

I'ma go with what he said.

It was a Malaysian lady,
She really came as no surprise,
But I still did destroy her,
And I will smash,
Halo of Flies.

[Hugo Windstone]

Stick to you day job man.

[Ta'Samsca'Rial]

Seminars should be more clearly marked.
Now I have nothing to do except sit on the internet for two hours.
Which I could do at home with the benefit of music.

I'm so tired.. and there isnt a spot on my entire body that doesnt hurt...

not to mention my feet.. or my thumbs...

Argh i'm gettin so brainwashed as well.. we do the same excercise so many times that we dont have to think to do it.... Funny story; I was in the line-up and he yelled "Attention!" and I was thinkin "how do I go in attention again".. and when I figured out how it was done.. I realised that I already stood in attention.. :S

[Alderon]

So after such a short time, its already instinctive?

[Dimman]

You try doin the same thing for 3-6 hours a day for a week.

[Ta'Samsca'Rial]

Well have they taught you how to invade foreign countries yet?

[Alderon]

When will we invade norway?

[Dimman]

Nope, but they taught me how to dismantle and put together one of these:



and soon they'll teach me how to shoot with it

[Ta'Samsca'Rial]

I think I learned that at the age of three..

Something along the lines of sqeezing the trigger if I recall..
