Hello,
I am about to join the GD (if you will have me) and this is my introduction.
Looking forward to meeting you all in due course.
I am now pricing uniform and kit. any sugestions most welcome.
Some basic questions for you.
I want a M36 tunic..used throughout the war is this ok? or will I have to be directed?
with regard to a weapon I would like a blank firing K98...is trhis the norm? how much will I have to pay for one?
how often do you meet up for group training/social etc?
any help advice most welcome!
At the recruiting office front door.

hello Tim
with regards to the k98;
to own a k98 that fires blanks you would need to apply for a section 1 firearms license as strictly speaking they are live firing weapons that you use just for blanks . at the moment no-one makes a replica blank firing version.
the easiest solution is to register with the armourer that we use and hire your firing weapon for any battle that we participate in.
you then buy a deactivated k98 for use on static displays etc.
hope this helps
