Could you tell the answers and show the 'thought process'?

As Badger said, awnswers will follow at a later date, im assuming around the time winners recieve their prizes so they don't spoil the surprise. If you would have read the first post, it would have awnswered your question. For the sake of lowering repetition of questions could you please read the entire forums first?

Maybe so obxcrew, but it gets really annoying when people continuely ask the same question that has been ask many times.

And now, what you've all been waiting for: the answers and thought process for each riddle!:

#1) “Premier spy boss Large, extra-syllabled” = M1 Garand


"Premier" = first = 1
"spy boss" = M
"Large, extra-syllabled" = grand + extra syllable ("a") = Garand

#2) “Lucky Stripes love interest”= MP7


"Lucky" = 7
"Stripes love interest” = MP


#3) “Volume of alcoholic angel-wear” - MA5C (now the BA-M5)


"Volume of alcohol" = fifth = 5
"angel-wear" = HALO


#4) “Brit spy moonlights as rapper” = M6G (now the BA-M6)

"Brit spy" = Mi6
"rapper" = G

#5) "Self-driven and rescued by sewn clock" - Auto-9

"Self-driven" = auto
"rescued by sewn clock" = "stitch in time saves nine" = 9

#6) "Night thoughts other than artificial Wales resident" - PKD2019

"Night thoughts" = dreams
"artificial Wales resident" = electric sheep = "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?"

#7) "True, dual amoeba propellers" - Bipod

"amoeba propellers" = pseudopod
"true" = not false, remove pseudo
"dual" = two = bi


#8) "Crutches needed" - monopod


Mono = one
pod = foot = hard to walk

#9) "South Park affirmative slang and six both added to universal answer" = MK48

"South Park affirmative slang" = M'kay = MK
"Universal answer" = 42
MK + 6 + 42 = MK48

#10) "Light sound device"


"Light" = flash
"sound" = bang
"device" = grenade

MOD - Again, a release date for Mold #3 has still not been finalized. Two of the items turned out to be a bit trickier for Will's molder, and it has caused a slight delay. Keep watching the forums, because as soon as we can give you a definite date, we will.

Wow, that last one was so simple I somehow never even thought of it! *smacks forehead* I think it was the word "device" that threw me off...

Turns out I got 7 out of 10, which is... actually exactly what I expected to get. In all fairness, #4 & #6 were pretty hard, especially with my limited knowledge of rappers (I thought for sure you meant the guy "50 Cent," whose name would indicate a .50 caliber weapon...). And here I was searching for different words related to people from Wales, famous citizens & princes of Wales who were not born there (and thus "artificial residents"), etc., and you meant a SHEEP?! GAH! :-P

Oh well, it was still fun. Can't wait to see what they actually look like!

From this site:

"Despite its small size, only a fraction over 8,000 sq. miles (slightly larger than the state of New Jersey), and with a population just under 3,000,000, Wales raises more sheep than any other area in Europe. Its 11,000,000 sheep represent about 15 percent of the sheep in the European Community."

Ah, I fondly remember the PM he sent me last year. He said that there were some awesome designs that would knock my Kiwi socks off...wait...hold on...WHERE'D THEY GO???

Seriously, I've been looking forward to the flashbangs for some time now. As for the MP7, being a new fan of it, never in my wildest imagination did I think it would be coming out sooner!

No, it's not a torpedo, it's a machine gun made by Fabrique Nationale. (I think.)
Search Google Images and you'll find it.

It somehow resembles the M240 pistol grip variant...YES! Will, you just keep getting better and better!
