The Greener Police Shotgun
« on: March 17, 2013, 09:57:57 AM »
Wandering the www I came across this rather interesting little article on an item of kit I had never heard of before, The Greener Police Shotgun. It was issued by Britain to many of its colonial police forces from Egypt to Hong Kong. Maybe of interest to Pulp  aficionados and it is another use for those spare martini Henry armed figures you have laying about.

Em dezembro de '81
Botou os ingleses na roda
3 a 0 no Liverpool
Ficou marcado na história
E no Rio não tem outro igual
Só o Flamengo é campeão mundial
E agora seu povo
Pede o mundo de novo
