[QUOTE="zumbly, post: 4008653, member: 57495"]Wow, super nerdy post! I love it! :D You weren't kidding when you said this type was so much more than the average LRB. Needless to say, a VRF is now on the want list. Hairless cats do nothing for me, but I like my junky ol' campgate from a decade or two after the Sack.

R: VOT PVB, campgate with four layers and two turrets; Q above, RQM in exergue. A contemporary issue, but this one struck in the safety of Constantinople.
