Black Powder can last centuries without significant decay, specially if well packed or if made with Saltpeter.
Hmmm....Percebes AND mejillones. Plus some Octopus "a la galega"
regado with
Albarinho wine...
(You guys must have something similar to
pulpo a la galega and Albarino, portuguese and galicians have lots of customs in common. )
BTW: I own C-96s, P-08s (including one artillery plus the round magazine), P-38s, ASTRAS 900 & 600, a Mauser M95, a few modern and my carry, a SW-65...
I fancy about owning a MP-38/40, a MP-5, a Dragunov, a M-14 (or a M1/A2), a G3 or a FAL. But it's actually impractical. Too much iron to spread among the walls! The M14 alternative is very attractive, albeit impossible, being a full automatic..
[QUOTE=fernando][QUOTE=Ed]Oh, Fernando ... Portugal!!!
God, my wife and I went there for a couple of weeks a long time ago ... Cascais to Porto to Sintra to the Algarve and back to Lisboa. What a great trip, I recall seeing the Crusader ruins and a gorgeous Templar church ... Sintra was it? I forget. [QUOTE]
That was the Tomar convent, with the magnificent Templar "charola".
[QUOTE=Ed] And the military museum in Lisbon.[QUOTE]
I go there every now and then ... the greatest world collection of bronze cannons in the yard.

I don't fancy much Port wine ... but i usually have the best for offer.
[QUOTE=Ed]I mainly remember the food..... barnacles ...

We call them percebes; they taste like sea.
