Apparently my great grandfather was a Bobby back in England. I have his truncheon. Looks like it's had a few knocks too.. probably sorted out some likely lads. Found it while sorting out my Nanna's belongings.

That's a pretty cool find.

Oops you forgot to grow up, fuckwit

[โ€“] indisin@aussie.zone 5 points 3 weeks ago

Haha :D Sorry mate, I couldn't resist as I'm incredibly bored outside watching temps on a smoker, as I have been doing for coming on 7-8 hours now.

It's definitely an awesome find though!

I think they have a metal core, how's the weight?

[โ€“] bull@aussie.zone 3 points 3 weeks ago

It for sure does some weight to it. It's really well balanced too. Swinging it would do some damage.
