What happens when u drive a military lightweight...

[davros]

... into an army checkpoint, thinking they know who is part of their "game" and who isnt.And at the same time kids you teach come past with a video camera and their hostel supervisor who is in reserves...
My Mate and I were interogated and searched for 40mins, including innersoles out of shoes and "spread your legs". Was v funny!:D:D

Never make fun of a man with a gun :lol2:

Not somebody's smartest moment eh ;)

[davros]

... "it's all good fun untill...". Some new kids at our school wanted to do "war" as a photography theme. So I still had my little collection in the back! Including the belt of deact .30 cal ammo... and the an/pvs2 night vision weapon sight. opps :angel:
Lucky I had just removed this:

Can't work and can't be made to but it looks :eek: and is great for traffic jams!

Drove around Perth like this in my old IIA for Prosh day once, raised a few eyebrows. :)

They said it's all cool. You can't import them, and they can't fire anything, but if its no go its ok, also same for deactivated guns (done to police specs). Got a 303 with rod in the barrell etc.
Also if you go out on the rampage with it you will still be on a firearms charge.
If you're still alive!

PS nice prosh day shot too!

[Phoenix]

At the risk of sounding rather young, Prosh day?

I wish our lot were as good, but i'm pretty sure they don't have much of a sense of humour about it. I'd love a deactivated SLR to go with grover.

Theres a bloke in Melb who was making them a few years ago.
Got this off him.

The top is the real deal the bottom is a rubber resin copy. He makes them for film props.

:eek:

Thats a classic.

I stupidly was looking for a mates place near HMAS cerbrius in Hastings..

I drove and drove until i wasnt in Kan.. I mean hastings anymore..

A nice gentleman in full battle fatigues stopped me and asked me what the hell i was doing and was amazed i wasnt stoped at the two checkpoints prev. I Didnt notice any checkpoint. (Must have been putting on Makeup) Anywho the gentleman was quite nice but told me and my mate we had to do a three point turn on the spot due the fact i wasnt even supposed to have made it this far....

Although i didnt have the fun that you boys did ;)

while the vid was slow and mumbly, on another note, I would wonder the legalities of you being held by armed troops. They don't have civil powers,(well I don't think so)

used to have an AR15 battery powered water pistol that was accurate in every way except it was plastic and squirted water. A mate and I (who was and is in the AFP !) bought several at a junk shop in Penrith years ago. At the time we were going to a fancy dress party.....:angel:

I wonder how 'legal' it would be these days ??

[Phoenix]

Well, let's put it this way Rick130, I wouldn't point it at a bloke with a real one :eek:

Tooles disposals sell similar replicas as well. As for the power to detain people, I have a sneaking suspicion that when they are doing couter terrorism stuff they do have the power, and I wouldn't be arguing too much if you were found on defence property either.

[JohnE]

Ok I couldn't quite work out if they were on commonwealth property or not, if on base well thats a different story,
but then most of the security guys i have come across (the checkpoint ones) well there nationality is dubious as well as having mastery of the language.
