Hey Birch - (not to hijack the thread) - I haven't responded to your question in your most recent email. My computer went nuts while I was out on the SHT and ate all my email, including my addresses. If it was important, please resend.

yeah, birch, the site I took that pic from had pretty much agreed it was a brit rifle and brit camo, but making fun of the French is much more fun than making fun of those stodgy ol brits, what what.

Besides, anyone can see that rifle has never been dropped so it couldn't belong to the French.

The French are very proud of their military heritage, which stems from the days of Napoleon and 50 years later with Napoleon III, at which time they kicked ass all over the continent. Their losing streak started when they picked a fight with Prussia and had their ass handed to them, as the Prussians had been organizing, and they marched right in to Paris in about 1880. They did it again in WWII, and almost did it in WWI. Don't ask how they are doing lately, like the last century.
