Yep... hence I keep asking silly questions about MV's which no doubt the
rest of you gents answered 20 years ago...

But the self replicating urge is strong... oh for the Star Ship
Enterprise...
However I cannot see why I'd be left with an empty house... need somewhere
to put the militaria....

Larft like a drain I did.. .
Hope you find something on the Polsten Quad soon... otherwise I may have to
settle for a wife and 2 kids...
Someone I know thinks they were used as a secret weapon against the V
weapons... hence no photos... only manuals... but no other info... would be
fun to have... apparently they were a ripoff from the German Flak 38... look
darn similar.
Cheers
