The TPU UK Clubhouse

[pantherx12]

I have an AK47 captured in Afghanistan..... will that do?

@ Moonpig, did you see he was on yesterday, I think he used a different ISP to get in, maybe from work or something but clearly he is avoiding you or he surely would have PM'd. I would advise you to go to the Dispute resolution thread and contact both ERocker and Mussells who looks after the thread.

Naughty Naughty, shouldn't have guns like that in your house

28 years soldier and officer, left as a Major in 2004, was part of the first UK Battlegroup to go into Afghanistan in Jan 2002.

Heard the graphics were pretty decent but too much bloom & no re-spawn, is that true?

We have a winrar! I doubt the clubhouse will be half as manly as it is when you leave

Also, I heard people are getting the sack while in Afghanistan. British Govt, screwing the lives of soldiers :shadedshu

Dude they do that in the first instance, who do you think gets them to fight?

Not Naughty, it is registered, cost me £250 (which could actually buy me 4) to have it "Made safe" to bring back to the UK but all they do is take out the working parts and issue a certificate...... then just the usual secure storage requirements and annual inspection.....I have a spare set hidden away anyways

That's handy, in a zombie apocolypse you could pay some surviving kids to fix the gun up for a few sandwiches


I'm somewhat confused by guns having to be deactivated, after all it's not hard to build a magnetically driven gause rifle with enough power to really hurt/kill someone. ( Just seems projectile weapons are fairly easy to build, just hard to build them and make them highly accurate/low recoil etc XD)

75 amp truck battery + array of magnets mmm : ]

John Malkovich once made a gun out of plastic. I think it fired only .22 or .38 calibre though so not exactly a cop killer by any standards. (infact i think the the cops in HK use a .38 S&W Special as stand issue - I know that the better trained fire-arms units use stuff like H&K MP5/10's and 9mm Glocks. In fact, thats pretty much standard issue for security guards working at the Hong Kong Airport. I think the UK airport police are issued with the same loadout. but the only difference is the uniforms - and the fact we make being armed to the back teeth look good)

 

[pantherx12]

I've made spring loaded stuff that could take an eye out or two.

I'm sure no one cares, aslong as you fit in.

Don't worry there will be plenty of peer pressure : ] * sinister laugher*

No offence but no.

But his great-great-granduncle/cousin twice removed etcetcetc. might have been a Brit! We should not discriminate just because he lives in some hippy country called America.

What would be the point of having a UK club if people from all over the world are able to join? Defeats the point.

I'm not trying to be malicious I'm just stated that I think it's a dumb move to allow others that aren't from or in the UK... in.

I'm not going to be joining from US members club because I want to visit America.

You have got a point there.

But still, if someone understands the British culture, knows the difference between Foster and Fuller, spells colour and thinks driving on the left is the "right" way, I don't see how we can reject him/her.

 

[claylomax]

So what are the requirements then? I don't have a tatto on my arm and don't drive a white van at work.

I can.

Requirements for what, joining the group? It states them on the first page.

Nice setup however, *waits for benchmarks*

 

[Ra97oR]

I hope I get a good chip and my TRUE is enough to overclock it well.

Total noob to Sandbridge overclocking, its just different. Doesn't look too hard though.

Thats great but if it wont take your head off in one shot at 600m it's not much good to me
