Sorry Herlad, but as of 11:55am that top pic is NOT and H&K MP5, as any CS player could have told you.

The fact that it has an almost identical buttstock and trigger assembly to the M4 below should have been a clue that you've got the wrong gun there.

508298 2006-12-21 00:03:00 Smart observation Mr Admin.

For non-CS players an MP5 is more accurately depicted here (en.wikipedia.org).

It is infact a Heckler and Koch, not an MP5, but an HK416

508301 2006-12-30 19:05:00 Years & years ago, when I lived in Wellington, I was involved in "Black Powder" shooting. A few days ago, I wondered whether it would be interesting to have a go at it again:rolleyes: . Anyway, to get to the point, have a look at this you gun buffs www.flintlocks.com jcr1 (893)

508303 2007-01-04 05:18:00 Aren't those weapons rifles, rather than guns? Perhaps the Herald does know guns. Graham L (2)
