    Leia used a Luger with an extra long barrel

    Storm troopers a British submachine gun (sterling?) with assorted extra bits.

    Han Solo looked like he was using a Mauser with again assorted extras.

    I came across a web site that suggested that some of the guns beging used to be the rebels on Hoth were maxim types.

    Bit dubious about that last one.

    Sadly not. Being a Christian I tend to forgive people, which tends to mean you cannot them seek revenge...

    Hey, it is a good idea. ;)

    Your obviously the wrong kind of Christian. Convert to Catholicism that way you can take your bloody revenge then go to confession and ask for forgiveness :D.

    " No one expects the Spanish Inquisition!! Our chief weapon is suprise...Suprise & fear, fear & suprise. Our two weapons are fear & suprise....& ruthless efficiency. Our three weapons are fear, suprise & ruthless efficiency and an almost fanatical devotion to the Pope. Our four, no, amongst our weaponry are such elements as fear, suprise..............
    Oh I'll start again..................................................

    Woo! I knew that sketch would turn up as soon as the Inquisition got mentioned... :lol:

    Now Ricky, he does have a point, the Seven Sacraments make you able to live on the edge, then confess, recieve absolution and still go to heaven! :D Wait, this is why that whole Reformation thing started...

    This is what happens when humans take control of Religion...
    This isn't going to turn into another 'comparative religions' topic is it?

    (No, no, not the comfy chair!)
