Would you care to guess what this is ?

Add 1 Mack The Knife...
grumps, not your latest airsoft project by any chance, is it?

Where is that guy from Orkut with the Tech 9 that jams?
Darn it he could have caught it in a second

Love the new tag Grumposaurus heh hee...I'm just terrified to meet up in person after writing this.

Okay my super eyesight tells me that it is a 17 hmr, the rimfire round ...nah READ Mark's comment that it can't be reloaded and so it has to be a rimfire of some kind.

C'mon tell us, at our age we can't afford to tear hair anymore.

Well done Dodger - the penny finally dropped !

Rhineland Arms R22.

- It`s American........and bl**dy expensive for a .22lr semi-auto.

Do you know I actually thought of getting an airsoft gun as a deterrent against the neighbours cats and the Magpies coming into the back garden after nesting birds......but then it occured to me that the Collar Doves and Wood Pigeons would eat the yellow plastic balls in mistake for maize.
Current thinking is that maybe I`ll get a repeater CO2 BB air pistol - I don`t want to kill the pests, just leave them with a sore ar*s and the definite idea that it isn`t a good idea to enter this particular garden.
Grumposaurus ? Didn`t you know that my new wildcat cartridge is the .999 Grumposaurus ? Designed to eliminate illegal parking by destroying vehicles engine blocks. It`s a companion to my. 1.98 BOF anti-personel system which utiliises a large rubber bung in order to shut-up BOFs who are yacking on interminably.

[Grumpy]

I don`t believe this: The built-in censor system on this website has proscribed B A L L S - the yellow plastic variety - and substituted "b@ll$" ! That`s nannyism carried to a ridiculous degree.
I wonder if I can adapt the 1.98 BOF to deal with it ?
I`ll bet it doesn`t do anything about `bug*3r` or `ar*e` because they`re English cuss words rather than American !
- Ah, it recognises `ar*e`........... and to think that I`ve been self-censoring my use of that word up until now using the same substituted asterisk ( Honestly ! )
What about `wanker`?

[eljefe]

Dont think we need to do anything about 'auto-word correcting' wanker Grumpy, we sure need it when we does! the word that is...
COngrats on the new .999 grumposaurus, will make a good companion to the 1.98 BOF
Does it mean that Rusty gets the 2 bot of Chateau Lafitte ?

Does it mean that Rusty gets the 2 bot of Chateau Lafitte ?

Just a wee sip....if Mark feels generous.

Assuming you mean Chateau Lafiite. Otherwise Mark can have it all.

Some of those will kill...like the Crosman 1008, the plastic one is better than the more expensive nickel one for some strange reason. Get yourself the Crosman 357 with an eight inch barrel real fun and accurate. Might be my next buy.

Did someone mention alcohol?

Hijacking it back to this toy, here's a couple of clues-

first, the hole in the muzzle points to a 22 caliber something. Possibly a 243 but definately smaller than 30 caliber.

Now look at the ejection port, and notice how short it is.

Also look at the magazine well on the top pic to see how long it is, then you can visualize it on the bottom image too. Now eyeball the bottom pic and use the 1" scope tube to judge scale. All of these point to a 22 LR.
