A man reported to be a serving soldier is dead and two people have been shot in Woolwich, south east London, after what is being treated as a terrorist attack.


Downing Street has called a meeting of the Government's Cobra emergency committee after the incident in John Wilson Street, which David Cameron described as "truly shocking".


Senior police officers are thought to believe the killing was a politically-motivated Islamist terrorist attack.


And video has emerged that appears to show one of two alleged attackers - with blood-stained hands and holding two bladed weapons - attempting to justify the attack.

"I apologise that women had to witness this today, but in our lands our women have to see the same," he said.


Dozens of weapons - including a number of knives - and pools of blood could be seen on the ground, where a man said to be wearing a Help for Heroes T-shirt was attacked by two men.


Witnesses say the pair appeared to deliberately drive their car at the victim, before getting out with various bladed weapons and launching their attack.


Following their attack, as the victim lay motionless in the middle of the road, witnesses say they heard the pair chanting "Allahu akbar" - and inviting passers-by to take photographs of them.


As soon as armed police arrived at the scene, witnesses say at least one of the alleged attackers began approaching the officers - who opened fire and shot the pair. The men were taken to separate hospitals with gunshot wounds.


Photographs taken at the scene show three people lying on the ground. Their condition was not clear. A car that appeared to have crashed on the pavement could also be seen.


The Metropolitan Police confirmed one person had died following the incident and said the Independent Police Complaints Commission had now taken over the investigation, which is standard practice in cases where armed police fire their weapons.


Commander Simon Letchford, from the Met, said officers were called to the road at 2.20pm.
"One man was being assaulted by two other men," he said.


"A number of weapons were reportedly being used in the attack, and this included reports of a firearm.


"Officers including local Greenwich officers arrived at the scene and shortly after firearms officers arrived on the scene.


"On their arrival at the scene they found a man, who was later pronounced dead. At this early stage I am unable to provide any further information about the man who has died.


"Two men, who we believe from early reports to have been carrying weapons, were shot by police. They were taken to separate London hospitals, they are receiving treatment for their injuries."


The Prime Minister will cut short a trip to Paris to return to London in the wake of the incident.


He told a news conference in Paris that Britain had faced terror attacks such as the one in Woolwich, adding: "We will never buckle in the face of it."


Nigel Foran, who saw the incident as he returned home from shopping, described a scene of confusion.

He told Sky News: "We saw a man running towards the police officers and then we heard a couple of gunshots.


"He went to the floor and was surrounded while officers drew their stun guns. After that, all the people who were watching ran away when they heard the gunshots."


The Ministry of Defence said it was urgently looking at the reports that the incident involved a soldier.


Greenwich and Woolwich MP Nick Raynsford had earlier told Sky News he believed the deceased was a serving soldier.

Hi GS'ers


Could anyone steer me in the direction of someone that may have or import COLT rifles.

I am looking for the same rifle 30.06 posted in another thread.

Thanks

Hey folks, I have never really found lever action rifles attractive and interesting until recently I have fallen in love with them after seeing them being used on a Western film lol good enough reason right?

I dont know much about these guns and i'm hoping some of the others on this site don't know all the ins and outs about them so please guys share your knowledge and we could turn this into an awesome thread.

I apologise if there is a thread like this one already, if so admins please forgive me!

But ja, if you own one post a pic! Show them off! Im interested in buying one once I get my sporting licence so if you guys could be so kind as to inform me of what you think is a good rifle and for what prices they go for I would be grateful

22 January, on the Keiser Report RT:



I don't want to sound alarmist, but it does appear as if there is a general disregard for the US constitution by the Federal Government. The latest Obama scandals underlines this. Trouble brewing? If true, Gun Control is the least of the problems.

Here is my question. Would you zero your rifle for hunting dangerous game differently to your plains game rifle? I am sure one should, I just have no idea what the thinking about this is.

I normally take my plains game rifle a .308 to the range, zero it spot on and go hunting.

I am busy with a problem causing Hippo hunt now. Shot one yesterday and have another to take down within the next two weeks. I know these guys are aggro as they killed one of our labourers the other day. Thereafter I am going to Mozambique on a Buff hunt and will be backing up my wife looking to make a Bow-kill on said Buff. The archers amongst you know that this is ranges to start of with at anything between 10 and 30 yards. My previous Buff and Hippo hunts was all within 50 meters and a lot closer but these was with iron sights.

I will be using a .375H&H topped with a Vortex Viper HS 2.5-10X44. Currently it's zeroed dead on at 100, but I am not sure it's the right way if things go south and I need to shoot very close say anything between 10 and 20 yards.

Hi everyone

I am in the process of joining NSA (National Shooting Association), but I'm a bit skeptic about them. I want DSS and DHS status for obvious reasons. I'll break it down the way I understand the entire process.

I join them, pay the fees, do the theoretical exam and shoot the targets they provide, at my own leisure. Send everything to them, and I get my status from them. Sounds too easy?

I've read through the natshoot posts from some of the other guys on the forum and it looks like NSA is worth while. It's just weird, the process. Basically anyone can go this route, do the exam, shoot the targets at 2m if they wanted or even shove holes through them with a pencil for example, and then receive status. Doesn't sound right.

If I understand correctly, to sustain your status you just have to do this a few times a year, download the targets, shoot and send back to them.

It all just sounds too good to be true. I spoke with a local police officer here and he said that to keep your status according to the law you MUST participate in an accredited shooting event, like the postal shoot etc. He also said that some people have lost their DSS status because of non participation and apparently you need to provide proof of this when applying for a firearm with your DSS/DHS status. I am not sure how this works when one is under NSA, maybe they have some special agreement with SAPS, do any of you guys or gals have any experience regarding these questions? Any advice or experiences with them especially in the long run would be very helpfull

Opinions about suitability for IPSC 3-Gun?

Thanks :g:

I'm looking to get some electronic ear pro with gel ear cups. Are there any alternatives to the ******s (no stock) available locally or am I going to be stuck importing something?

I'm currently using peltor passives combined with custom moulded in ear passives and still experiencing pain. One of the main problems is that the earmuffs aren't sealing very well around my eyepro and I'm hoping to solve this issue with gel earcups. The other issue is that doubling up on ear pro, I can't hear a thing anyone is saying so jacking up the volume on electronic muffs should overcome this.
