I'm afraid not - the (8 year) is in parenthesis, indicated a subordinate clause. The main subject of the sentence that the indefinite article refers to has an initial consonant; hence there is no need for an. Good effort though.
Who's in the where with the what now?
Dammit man, if you want to live on our planet you have to speak our language.

Its AN 8 year tradition...

Put 'em in here guys. Nothing knights makes is dissimilar enough from an AR to warrant a thread all to itself.

Madness?
THIS,
IS,
PHOTOSHOP!

We're telling you to stop.

Yeah that link is from the old version of IPB, you just need to scroll down to the bottom and click the big blue bar that says "click here to show filter options" and change that from topic posted to last post.

I Think the post vote thing is deliberately disabled, the similarly themed rep system that was in place a few years back was abused a little bit too often.
-
The old setup was a custom skin on IPB IIRC, I don't think you can even switch from VB to IPB and keep all the posts.
Certainly feels different!
I was actually thinking how familiar(in a good way) it feels...
-
Uhhh, no its not. For one thing USMC can't install plugins to the forum, for another, that is almost completely unrelated to what he's suggesting.
-
It seems to me that if you quote someone's post and give another suggestion, then it really only can be directed at them, but there's no need to start name calling, so how about we play nice before something bad happens?

We try our best to be consistent but we are-generally speaking- human. Very rarely are any two given situations the same, so it follows the appropriate level of response will not be the same, for example we take into account previous action so something that could be viewed as minor on its own can result in a suspension if its the last in a line of infractions by th same member.

All ICS m4s, even the plastic ones use a split box.

It is fixed but it was not DNS- BT were (deliberately or otherwise) blocking connections to arnie's.

From what Kobayashi-san is communicating it seems he will not continue on and the series is to be his last.
Just like the VP70. I'm wondering if maybe he's using a phrase like "the ultimate gun" or something meaning how good it is and its getting translated wrong...

In the UK the site's designated first aiders (as well as paramedics and firemen I believe- I'm neither so I don't know for sure)are legally obliged to help, anyone else with training is morally obliged to help anyone without training may feel compelled to help. What that means is if you don't help and belong to the first group you can face prosecution, the second a civil suit and the third will probably feel really bad.
The blanket I wouldn't say is a vital part of personal kit, but it won't hurt- you can't fall on it and puncture a lung or tear a rotator cuff (thanks again academy L85!
). -
Its a have-and-not-need thing and c'mon sanctioned to use a blanket ?
The shears though a lot of sites won't even let you take em out and personally every time I see someone jam a pair into molle loops I wonder how long it takes you to bleed out from a 3 inch slash in your gut... -
A foil blanket is handy to have on you- for most folk the first aid kit you carry will never get used and even if it does it'll mostly get used on you, wouldn't it be fun to disable a leg and find out now you get to lie on the ground cold and wet for a while cos the marshals are "airsofting not climbing" for the sake of something you can get in asda for about a quid?
If you've done any first aid coarse, you'll know what should be in your kit in that regard, if you haven't done one try to get yourself on a basicone with st andrews or st johns etc, about three hours and £20 is the norm, but till you've done one you really should only carry stuff for you or you might end up doing more harm than good. I'm not saying don't try to help, just not to try something you've never been trained to do unless its the very last resort.
What you should have in a personal kit is:
Your Meds if you take any or have alergies.
plasters/tape and pads you know you're not allergic to and super glue if you prefer that- that is not an OR its an AND SG works great on cuts that aren't bleeding too much and have a flap of skin to bond back together but if you're dealing with a graze getting the stuff to dry into a crust without glueing twigs or clothes etc to yourself it is a PITA and even then you'll probably have stuff stuck in the skin you won't want glued in, just stick a plaster or pad on till you can get back to the safe zone/home etc to clean it properly.
vinyl gloves espesially if you're alergic to latex- some first aiders might still have the old latex gloves in their kit and even if your allergy is minor those gloves are going were you're hurt then the wound will be dressed, and it will itch like hell.
IMO, that's all you need, you might want a blanket and a triangular bandage if you want to be sure, but mostly everything else the site first aiders will be carrying, and besides which almost everything else you'll need to get help with- it is possible to tie a knot behind your head one handed with a broken shoulder, but it is so not fun.

Just binned a couple of threads, both pretty much the same thing. If it isn't a review, don't post it here.
This includes but is not limited to:
- Asking for reviews of a particular product/
- Posting that you intend to do a review.
- Speculative reviews IE reviews made up based on how much you want something,
Anything posted in here that's not a straight review will be binned. Possibly with no further explanation other than warning points for whoever posted it.

RS pics are fine in the capacity off asking what parts are needed to replicate the gun in airsoft, but the magpul thread had few of those and many look-what-I-got-on-my-lead-chucker posts.
I'm not sure there's much point in re-opening or starting a new one- mostly everyone with a masada has posted it in the masada thread and pretty much all the other magpul bits have to go on an armacolt anyway.(unless you really want pictures of magazines with rubber loops on and molle speed threaders...)
-
What is it with the report button? Must be broken so l4by decided to post instead.
Anyway, this is the whole point of the review section, so that rather than posting a new thread in tech or general etc, someone can ask in here in the threads that are already there.
The differences between the clones and the originals are in this case minimal, mostly just slightly rougher cast parts and paint, and in this case a pretty poor air seal so they stuck in a stronger spring to compensate.
-
It shouldn't hang in any browser, it should just pop up a tiny 404 in place of the exchange rates in the side bar, but if you are getting hang-ups do as rob suggests down at the bottom change the skin to "without sidebar". It looks weird for a while but you get used to it and pretty much everything in the side bar is only one or two clicks up top anyway.

@Sandman: WRONG thread!
...and please remove the "beware of the dangerous toy" sticker from your blaster!
Only storm troopers use blasters, that is an M4.If you think something is in the wrong thread etc, report it or PM a mod, telling the person who posted it won't help in 99% of cases.
I'd like to take the opportunity here remind everyone to suggest how to fix things you see wrong rather than just shouting about them being wrong.

look in the 50 or so armalite threads (cheers for that renegade).

Same as if you wanted to refer to a man named Richard IE you're *fruitcage*ed.
