Scotties Pinky

lol somewhere in the house I still have my clasp knife.

Now how weird is that, I've got two, one my father owned, and a second one he passed onto me upon my recruitment..(I'm under the impression it belonged to my Grandfather)..

I think they must be a lot older than mine. Mine just has the knife blade and the horses shoe pick and no grips.

Top-drawer scratchy Bro!!! Looking real good with a coat on her and glad the pink is finally gone...Water always tasted like crap out of those plastic jerrycans back then. We used to paint ours green as they were molded in tan plastic...

Prost and Alles Gutem zum Gerburtstag!!!

Painted some of the details. And a bit of chipping.



I picked out the rifle but in wood as this was more common on the L1A1 SLR in the 60's than the plastic butt. I also added a butt number. these were used to identify the weapons quickly on the shelf in the armoury.






still lots to do.

cheers
Scottie
