Shuggy

Its minimal. All the boom goes out the back. Before you fire its down to your number 2 to ensure that there is no one standing behind you in the BBDA (Back Blast Danger Area)

In Australia in the 80's we mainly used the SLR, M16 and M60. Never had the British GPMG. Also the old old old F1 sub machine gun. Biggest thing i ever fired was the Charlie Gutsache 84mm. That was fun!!!

Australia used a rejigged 7.62 version of the Bren up until the late 80's. Only had the pleasure of firing one once in about 1987. Nice toy. Bloody accurate for a machine gun.

Incredible thread. I'm in absolute awe of your collection. Im a fan of the era but was only born in 1968 so didnt manage to experience it first hand. Having said that i'm a massive Deadhead have about 90 titles on vinyly and CD plus about 100 shows on cassette tape. Got to see them on the 4th of July 1989 in RFK, amazing experience. Only Mouse i have is an autographed litho of The Family Album. Sorry about the poor quality photo. Cant be bothered taking it off the wall.

Have been on board the QANTAS Connie but never flown in it. Hopefully one day. Its a thing of beauty.
