Jaco,

Ooops, I missed out the condom in the belt pack......I do keep a couple there but forgot to put them on the list......I'll amend it now. However, I've never thought of using one as part of a wound dressing.

As for using one as a scope cover.......I don't use a scope so it wouldn't be necessary. Actually one of my pet hates are those bloody silly pop up scope covers that people use. They often seem to get forgotten until we're on "finals" and then they make a noise when they're opened......

As for using a condom to cover the end of the barrel, well perhaps we have to use use bigger condoms up here than you guys down in Centurion

We find the condoms we buy up here are FAR too big to grip the barrel of our rifles.......and I shoot a heavy barrelled .500 Jeff!...........personally, I always tape the muzzle of my rifle over to keep out the dust.

Why do you think us Engels all wear long shorts!
