those are some great pics---is that M79 a dummy or the real thing? very nice set up you have there. as a side question, how far are you from railway dugouts cemetary for canadian forces from the battle of the somme?

m79 is a nice real wood metal bbgun ,is it the one near ipres? or is there one in France with the same name? I live on the coast in Ostend, about 26 miles from Ipres ,
aS a child mij parents had a wooden chalet in Zonnebeke where the canadians fought the battaille for the Nonnebossen more known as Poligone ,so if I can be helpful just ask , what's your interest ?

well if I pass there one day I could take picts of the cemetary and the stone for you, there putting a lot of money in keeping it clean,especialy for 2014 it's so quiet there ,every day stuff is still being found out of the ground ,from bullits to guns and bombs, when I was small there was a guy that had in his garage a museum full of ww1 relics found in the fields

Nice pictures, I really like the M79! I've always wanted one just can't see spending the dough for a real one, is it airsoft or actual BB as in a copper bb gun?

it is airsoft from kingarms ,made of wood and metal firing 40 bbs at a time , expensive but a nice piece to put on a dummy or on the jeep
