    Those south African yokes are crap! The left one is picutred still sporting it's "grenade catcher"!!

    I thought they were said to be pretty good:confused:
    Tbh I'd much prefere that protection, much higher chance of some lad taking a shot with a rifle than trying with a grenade. Plus, wouldn't like to be up there without it if an IED went off:eek:

    Thermo is right, the actual engine and other mechanical parts are pot. They are a good concept and look great but thats about it.

    Jesus, get over yourself!!! Its obviouusly a joke!!

    And just because the picture is 5 years old doesnt mean its not the same guy. Its quiet possible to take more than one photo of a person in different timescapes. Dont let that get in the way of a shot at gamers though!!!
