Title: British Police Use Bat'leth... Post by: Lumpybob on September 16, 2007, 02:47:06 AM ...for Knife Safety Demonstration.
or they found it in a weapons raid or something. but either way, this still is awesome! Go Britishland! Title: Re: British Police Use Bat'leth... Post by: ewm90 on September 16, 2007, 02:53:36 AM Well they cant carry
Title: Re: British Police Use Bat'leth... Post by: Dominus_Noctis on September 16, 2007, 06:47:00 AM That is awesome! ... the caption is a bit confusing however.
I want one of those for my birthday (hint, hint it's the 26th) Title: Re: British Police Use Bat'leth... Post by: Pleb Zero on September 16, 2007, 11:46:38 AM That is awesome! ... the caption is a bit confusing however. A knife amnisty is when the police are like "okay, you've all got loads of knives. We're going to set up a table, turn our backs for a while, and when we look round, there better be a table full of 'em!" They did it wit guns a while back, but i doubt anyone hands in their weapons... Well they cant carry They carry guns in some places... Title: Re: British Police Use Bat'leth... Post by: ewm90 on September 16, 2007, 01:35:10 PM Humm the cops terning there back wile people carry swords/knifes hummm dose not sound safe.
Well living in the US of A it seems like your cops have gun "Leukopenia". Title: Re: British Police Use Bat'leth... Post by: Dr. Lazarus on September 16, 2007, 07:28:41 PM I remember this, I think it actually was a knife amnesty, and someone handed in the aforementioned Klingon weapon. The police said that it was very worrying because a replica Bat'leth is actually very dangerous. In other words, warriors only :D
Title: Re: British Police Use Bat'leth... Post by: RedShirt on September 16, 2007, 09:09:42 PM I wonder if anyone is actually trained in the use of a weapon-grade bat'leth...
Title: Re: British Police Use Bat'leth... Post by: Smoerebroed on September 17, 2007, 07:17:04 PM I find it funny that there is a weapon smith who makes them;
Title: Re: British Police Use Bat'leth... Post by: Rhaz on September 18, 2007, 05:04:26 AM There was a gun Amnesty here. Over 300 weapons were handed in, and only 1 million residents call my city (Edmonton) home. Among said weapons, was a fully automatic MP 44 in decent condition. The News toted it as a 'Nazi Assault Rifle' even if that is the truth, it's a pretty charged statement. Also turned in were several G3's (HK91's) an AK 47, several dozen high caliber revolves, and the ususal motley assortment of .38, .22 and 9mm weapons.
Title: Re: British Police Use Bat'leth... Post by: T-Man on September 18, 2007, 07:30:13 AM During the last gun amesty here, some dude somewhere handed in an RPG! Apparently it was a WWII momento. :lol:
I'm not suprised that someone made one. If you actually look at it, its quite a simple design; all you have to do is make the blade and then wrap some tape around some bits. I agree though, it is cool. B) Title: Re: British Police Use Bat'leth... Post by: Cpt Ryan on September 19, 2007, 09:38:47 AM erm... i thought rpg's were developed in the late 50s early 60s.
anyway more to the point, the gangs round my area (walthamstow lol not to far from ya rhaz :D), dont want to hand in any of their weapons. there have been a few amnesties in the local area, but nothing handed in (of an note anyway). Title: Re: British Police Use Bat'leth... Post by: Dominus_Noctis on September 20, 2007, 12:53:19 AM Nope, RPG's were invented during WWII and for proof... I use... TA DA!
Wikipedia; the answer to life itself! lol http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rocket_propelled_grenade :thumbsup: Title: Re: British Police Use Bat'leth... Post by: Dr. Lazarus on September 20, 2007, 04:52:39 PM In truth the youngsters around where I live are more interested in guns. Just recently an 11 year old kid was shot dead in my city, those of you in the UK will know about that. Sorry to depress the mood, but it has to be acknowledged that there are viscious weapons in the hands of an underclass of society who don't have feelings like the rest of us. Someone needs to find out where these guns are coming from. I'd bet on Russia and Eastern Europe as a first guess. Arms dealing has resurged lately in the old Soviet bloc, but then again they could be from anywhere on the planet.
Title: Re: British Police Use Bat'leth... Post by: Dominus_Noctis on September 20, 2007, 10:30:55 PM Well here in the good 'ol u s of a, there are NO gun problems. Nope, none. NAda. Well, allright, some... Ok, I give up, alot. (a couple guns were found in my old elementary school recently, *cough*)

Wikipedia; the answer to life itself! lol http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rocket_propelled_grenade :thumbsup: Referring to that link, the German Panzerfaust was NOT an RPG, but a recoilless rifle. The Panzerschreck was, though... Title: Re: British Police Use Bat'leth... Post by: ewm90 on October 08, 2007, 02:53:56 PM One can not trust Wiki example up dated by wight house interns regulatory.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_W._Bush When I tried to edit it I got = This page has a backlog that requires the attention of one or more administrators. Please remove this notice when the backlog is cleared. And some how only his hard core supports got throw hmm he has the lowest nubbier of supporters for a president sens the car was invented. ______________________________________ The rifle make more cents when I think of the usage of the term RPG. Such as the insurgents opened up with RPGs it would make more cents in that state meant that they faired rifles than a hail of rockets. Title: Re: British Police Use Bat'leth... Post by: Dominus_Noctis on October 08, 2007, 04:33:07 PM I am well aware that we cannot trust Wikipedia for many things: most certainly not for controversial aspects of life (politics etc) ... but I was using the source as the butt of my joke. :sweatdrop:
Obviously ineffective.... :crybaby: ...back to RPG's... I'm afraid you misunderstood what a recoiless rifle is Ewm. It is not actually a rifle that shoots bullets in this case, but grenades. It is in fact a lightweight form of weapon that allows the firing of a heavier projectile, which would be impractical with a recoiling weapon (i.e. artillery). They are NOT rocket propelled as Antagonist correctly stated (by the way sorry for the incorrect info... I just pulled it up too quickly and didn't bother reading much :blush:), but they are designed for destroying enemy armour. The "insurgents" (not sure where that is supposed to be, but judging from past experience I will say you meant in Iraq and Afghanistan) are armed with the RPG 7 or variants of it. These are true rocket propelled grenade launchers. Nonetheless, "RPG's" were still invented in WWII. Title: Re: British Police Use Bat'leth...

Title: Re: British Police Use Bat'leth... Post by: Dominus_Noctis on October 09, 2007, 04:18:43 PM Clouded in doubt, you are, young forum member. Not far the answer is. To Ewm must we look now... (everybody stares at Ewm intently until Yoda drops down from the ceiling unexpectdly). :ermm:
Title: Re: British Police Use Bat'leth... Post by: Dr. Lazarus on October 09, 2007, 05:51:25 PM You have a way with words, Dom ^-^
