Attention New Members and those new registering!
We had a lot of problems with spammers and bot attacks with the stock measures provided by the software. The 7 for registration was a fix that we came up with on our own that has worked quite well. Yes it is a PIA for both you and administration to put you onto your chosen username.
If you come back on and your login does not work retry with your username without the 7.
Thanks for joining us from the administration.

Just got this from a guy in Holland today, no not Martin ;) It's an M48/62 with military police markings, with 2 sets of collar tabs for army police(orange) and street police(purple). It's kind of odd how close Switzerland followed in Germanys footsteps with uniforms, and insignia. I know they both speak german and all, but I would think they would do things different just because.

I've gotten lucky with alot of stuff lately that's for sure :D I'm trying to decide if I should bid on a pioneer bayo or a No 7 swivel bayo, both are gonna be close to the same price I'm thinking
