    Can recall the name, but the number 27 seems to stick. I'm pretty sure that's close...

    Thank you very much, Gunter.

    Well, I'll guess again, just because I'm curious. Although, like Tom mentioned, 27 seems like a familiar number.

    21?

    Nein, Herr Dave. Rheinmetall is an acronym for a much longer name. Borsig was a company acquired by Rheinmetall.

    Hint: it's four words long, with the third being 'und'. ;)

    Well, I got:

    Rheinmetall Landsysteme GmbH
    and
    Rheinmetall Waffe Munition GmbH

    Neither of which seem to be the right answer... :evil:

    Sorry Ricky, they're not the right answer.

    Ok, the word 'Rheinmetall' means something in an extended form: Rhein___ Metall___ und ______. Fill in the blanks. :D
