Thank you, I knew how but the images weren’t loading, it turned out they were saved in an incompatible format for the forum so uploaded some quick screen shots.

I have a KR6 I bought from AoK a while back. I can’t figure out how to post photos on this forum at the moment or I’d post it.

CCJ and I had a pretty crazy experience with FedEx recently. Otherwise they’ve been bulletproof for me.

Yes I noticed that as well online a few days ago too.

Very nice, glad a forum member picked it up. I am looking for an officers version for this regiment if you (or anyone else) is in need of the extra shelf space!
