    Nothing that would result in getting that cold. Other offers considered on a case by case basis.

    I'll even consider "work", if absolutely necessary.

    Ha Ha Ha. Did you at least have a change of clothes? I would have sat on every seat of that sheepshagger if not.

    The look on his face as he was floundering about was priceless.

    -You 3 will love that movie even more when you're too old to do something similar again.

    I didn't have spare shoes or socks, which was a grave oversight. I don't think it got above freezing that day.

    Only design mod I'd do is make the handle straighter. I did find it wouldn't seat the primer properly due to the bend in the handle. If it was straighter (like closer to the original) it would be perfect.
    Otherwise they were much stronger than the standard handle.

    Mate its not quite that easy. The auto primes have small internal differences in the geometry. You can identify most with the measurement in the pic but a few odd ones you cant. Just making the lever straighter didn't help the ones I tried it needed a tweak to the hinge. The first ones I built where straighter but the bend gave better controll at the statr of seating. I coudnt be bothered trying to make different ones to cover the variants.Its the same with the replacements from the factory, a mate sent 2 back before he got one that worked, was part of why i got them made in the first place. You can straighten one and try it, may work in you one. As I said these will onlywork in one variant.

    Charge placement could have been slightly better, for even more destruction.

    Dont have a possum. I have some footage of new recruits posting some SFG75's and getting the snot sucked out of their noses somewhere.
    Its funny how they dont trust that a grenade dropped in a hole wont hurt them when it goes off, 18" from their heads.
    I used to get a kick out of it when they dropped the plum, they immediately turned into the fastest lizards you have seen, even the fat fuckers could move pretty fast.
    Best bit was the squealing and wriggling they did when you jumped on them to stop them causing a saftey issue. You would think ya tied one to their boot the way they fought.

    Some were staunch buggers though, eh Neckshot?? He squealed the loudest IIRC or was that Pumba, Jasen?
