The discussion of the Alien series of films and the props used in them is the aim, but if it's got Big Bugs and Big Guns, then they are welcome too!

Well, here in the 'Booters, when it comes to weapons, its 'Go big, or go home'.

So when a spot came up on the Smartgunner training course, well, what's a grunt to do?

She's a bit squirrelly on the IR tracking, but thats just her charm.

Still needs a name though.

Still trying to figure out a decent way to mount the shoulder lamp without damaging the harness. Did try some things, but needs work.

Looking great!

Can you share some pics how the lamp and the harness look on the back and how they are connected?
