Weapon firing videos and pictures
« on: March 12, 2005, 02:13:30 am »
Hi Guys,

I was in Gormanston for a while and caught some of the air firing on picture & video.  The picture isn't the best as the weather was crap and my camera was at it's operating limits to get the pictures (cue new camera!).

Anyway, click on the links below for the videos & pictures.

(Watch for the smoke, followed by gunfire, followed by the impact sounds in the videos)

Hi Guys,

Glad you like the shots, I'm not too impressed (with the picture quality that is) myself but they're a start, I'm just happy I experienced the air firing myself.

I know there are people out there who have pictures and possibly video of both guns & rockets so  please feel free to upload the pictures (contact me about the videos), there are a lot of people interested in seeing your shots.
