Off the base will get you tagged out. If you're tagged out you should be repaired or mended which makes you on the mend. Loss of [on the] face when your shim pops off the hook leads to Sepulku. Now about that there "detonating"; what's that about?

Jack,
What are you smoking?
America is on average about 5 hours behind the UK.
But in reality I would say it's more like 235 years behind.
Okay, sorry I'll get my coat, before someone punches me 'on the face'
Anyway, listen you lot, it is correct to say 'off THE face' not 'off face' be told, or I will smack your legs.

My apology for going off "the" subject. I am with Gunman do "the" rejoint "the" correct way and do not cut corners. It will pay in "the" long term and it will stay on "the" face longer.

You could also watch the video of the British trained gunsmith describing how to peen the hook.

If you watch the video you will see that it is not the hook being worked on. I think it is safe to say that Jack knows his way around a Brit double.

We used to call them auctions joints. Something that would hold long enough for some poor sod to get stuffed up. AS to comments of English trained gunsmiths doing things they shouldn't ,I have not seen this ,but then there are gunsmiths and gunsmiths .The ones who cant get jobs over here have to go somewhere. We always did send our trouble some sons to the colonies, we havent changed.

You've not been screwed until screwed by an Englishman, so goes the saying. You must be very proud.

Oh them Brits, why can't they talk normal. When I was a kid in Ireland we had a song about Britain that went like this; "When we were savage, fierce an wild--She came as a mother to her child--Raised us from the muck and slime--Kept our hands from hellish crime--And sent us to heaven in her own good time---" I'll omit the chorus.

GJZ,
There is many an English woman from the 1940's who preferred a Yank GI or was it the Hershey bar and nylons?

Way back in 68, I had occasion to make friends with a couple of English university girls in Devonshire--Janet and Madis. Skirts at that time were miny-mal and neither of them shaved her legs. I can't remember now whether I noticed the hair because it was attached to those long, long legs or I noticed it on its own account. I have also been a GI but not concurrently with my encounters with English girls. Janet, who has four children, still writes every Christmas. Ta.
