   Waay back when Linton Camp was known as Force Maintenance Group (1980's) a couple of paraflares MAY have had the flares removed and replaced with PE4 with a chopped off plain det turned upside down....

   Sshhhhh!!!! Actually, I still have a drawer full of receipts for several thousand rounds of MEN85 the army flicked off for no particular reason in the late 1980's. Still have my reloading notebook...

   ...And that's why a modest 10 person hut costs a mill to build. That, and the Carpenters don't want to live on site so have to be choppered in and out daily:omg:

   You look at the timber dimensions of those S70 huts, then think that they have stood the rigours of weather 10 times worse than an Auckland gale, and are still standing 50 years later.:D

   Didn't have the camera handy, but was just down buying one of those 10 minutes to eat ice creams at the Kinloch store, and a dude turns up on a Triumph Rocket 3R....with a wee bit of extra plumbing...

   A mate got these off his wife, soaked them in candlewax (parafin wax) and uses them as firestarters. $1.40 for 50 of them. ...

    If firepower was what they were after, the weight of that thing alone would make me want to swap it for a GPMG.
