Useless info. The SA80 is an example of a Bullpup firearm.

Eke: they don't let me near rifles if they can help it, especially ones with live rounds

I have an eye problem which means I can't shoot right handed, and shooting left handed on the SA80/Cadet GP rifle isn't well advised unless you want second degree facial burns :shock:

Just stuck the heating on - just for an hour. You know by pressing the boost button. Downstairs only. Let's not go too mad.

When two hamsters die, you find your wife and kids arriving home with four hamsters a couple of days later. Man, I hope these ones don't die...

When I was told about not being able to fire an SA80 left handed I had visions of a leftie trying and getting a clipful of spent cartridges smacking them in the face. Considering about 10% of the population are lefties, I consider that a major design flaw.

regulars in all arms of the forces consider it a major design flaw and even when the rifle was first issued it was considered a problem. Because of it I was prevented from joining the RAF. I simply have poor sight in my right eye and am actually more comfortable shooting left handed anyway.

There is a new GP rifle coming into play which has been designed for right and left handers. Just 5 years to late for me now as I'm considered too old to be joining as a regular.

Oh bugger, that was you then? I wizzed past someone on the right of traffic and heard a shout - assumed a car had got a bit close someone so took a look over my shoulder, saw all seemed well and carried on in pursuit of the RLJing Langster that was nearby. A moment after I did think the voice sounded familiar...

Sorry :oops:

cyclopsbiker

no worries DHope...you were whizzing along...almost caught you at the lights by the petrol station but they changed in your favour. next time
