  1. Solid bits of kit though, can't fault the quality. Here, I'll pop them both on in a mo and get some snaps. To be honest, I haven't a scoobies on how you adjust the compact one I've put on a bit of timber this autumn as well, so the full-fat model fits a bit better now
  2. Agree. I'm not exactly small, and the full-size one is HUGE on me. Embarassingly, haven't actually tried the compact on yet :S Will have more snaps when I have a bit of a dress-up later.
  3. I honestly don't know now! I suppose my honest answer is, just giving the DPM a rest
  4. Alas, there was a mishap with some of the kit (Oakley SI gloves, rigger's belt and hydration pouch were sent, but got sent back; address mixup I think), but the meat 'n' bones of this are done, though I'm still not sure about kneepads... All I need is a HK416 and about 6 different types of aiming devices on it
  5. That came out of the bag like that. Only thing I've done is re-do the straps (they were proper floppy), attach the UJ, Pentagonlight & util strap.
  6. It's a Warrior RICAS. Here's another shot: http://img19.imageshack.us/img19/4040/1007460.jpg I've got a hydration bladder on the way as well. *Was* going to be part of a MC loadout, but I'm now in a hustle with PayPal over the goods, so will be a PMC thing - pics inbound
  7. Nice Stunningly similar to what I'm going for
  8. Slightly impatient, as I'd ordered a *lot* more stuff, and both suppliers are telling me it's been sent; Bank Holiday has slowed post down apparently. Still, here's a sneak-preview of what it is to come. Doc ditches DPM...
  9. Absolutely *tons* of stuff on the way, but I though I might show off this, as it's pretty much as-I-intended EDIT: I think my next purchases should be some new carpet for my mum!
  10. I've got a photo of that new L85 on my phone. Didn't have an ACOG the one I used, but had all the other shiz
  11. Tango, Tango, Pepsi & a Mountain Dew, over.
  12. Oh dear... the issue was that I paid using PayPal, so the money has already been taken... Well, we'll see. I need the MC to set off the rest of the kit really, riggers belts and plate-carriers etc. Cheers y'all.
  13. Howdy, quick MC retailer question; I ordered some Tru-Spec MC BDU's from 'Combat Service Support', as they were the only on-line retailer who had the top and bottom in my size (apparently, 'regular' isn't all that regular in airsoft ). Just wondering if any of yous had ordered from them before, and if it all went well. No reason to doubt them, but I am bit wary of retailers who have all the sizes listed, as sometimes you get a phonecall a week or so later saying "Sorry, can we send you an alternative". Alas, I don't have an alternative body in my wardrobe. Bought *loads* of kit btw,
  14. Bull your desert boots to a high mirror shine, and I want to see creases in those socks.
  15. Blackweell! - good look, I've just bought some stuff like that for my own pleasure (RICAS, MOLLE backpack), will try and get some snaps up when I can. I also ordered some velcro patches for the UBACS, though I don't really like the UBACS all that much it has to be said. I also like the idea of using those *suitcasey* desert pouches as a belt-kit, though I'm no fan of PLCE either! You can get a desert yoke from some stores as well, not a bad idea that. I really want to get home and play with my new toys now... Btw, mate of mine says this t-shirt is all the rage in the sunnier climes
  16. Aye. I wanted to order that Warrior 3-day assault pack, but they were out of stock. Two questions; anywhere else in the UK I can order one (in tan)? And will this carrier be ok on it's own, or I will need to be cutting up the rollmat to fill it out?
  17. Bit lame using a stock image, but I won't be seeing this for 6 weeks.
  18. Ooh lovely stuff. Got LJ to describe the parts based on this photo: And then got MDK to build it for me Will definitely be running around the woods with this one when I get the opportunity! Also, I'd like to publicly thank Chris for bashing this thing together, it's evidently taken him quite a bit of time and effort and I'm very grateful for his expertise and, of course, Ian, for his delicious Blanco sandwiches.
  19. It'd be for play, not work. Cheers col.parsons, will have a sniff at that.
  20. Lowas & Meindls are issue now. Re: the *suitcase* vest - I might buy one of these: http://www.optactical.com/noname26.html And put the pouches on, see what it looks like. I just dug out the old-style desert vest I bought off eBay years ago & removed the mag dividers, much lighter.
