Hello! Been snooping around here for quite a while, so I decided that I might as well join up! ;)
I've been collecting Brickarms for a while now (usually buy 'em from Minifigforlife, since that's closer to Norway), and I must say that I'm absolutely awestruck by Mr. Chapman's ingenuity! My discovery of Brickarms has really revitalised my bin of old 80's and 90's Lego! Looking forward to the second wave! ;)
Anyways, about myself.. 26, male, from Western Norway. Working as a chef, though I've got half a B.Sc. in chemistry. General war nerd (especially the subject of weapons and ammunition), hobby pyrotechnician and I've even served a year as a combat medic in the Norwegian Army (we've got conscription..). I am a certified ammunition collector as well.
My favorite BA so far.. Tough one, but I think I have to say the MGL.. Love stuff that goes boom! :D
So yeah, that's me.. Hope I may contribute something useful to this wonderful forum!
Cheers,
Storm

Welcome to the forums! Since you're a pyrotechnician, you work with fireworks and things like that, right? Learned something like that in science today. :P I like war stuff too, and the MGL is also one of my favorites! Can't wait to see what you'll put up here. -Jeff
http://100thbg.org/: My grandpa fought in World War II. Here's the Bomb Group he was in. He was in the airforce, and survived the war. On the website, you can read up on the missions, see pictures, and learn some history. He's still living today, at 93 years old. :)

GeneralTy: Thanks! :)
jeff: Yup, I work with fireworks, but it's more of a hobby, not a profession. I mix the chemicals, load it into the suitable vessels, and I set 'em off! ;)

By the way, you sound like an interesting guy! ;)

your main target shouldn't be what you focus on most, but every other surrounding is what you should look at most.

Hello there. I'm kind of a pyro, too. And a war nerd. Anyway, I look forward to seeing your awesome creations on this awesome forum!
For every brickarm created, there is a minifig who needs it.
