@djben9 I relented and picked up a pre-owned ICS MP5A5 for £90-00!! Figured it can be my project gun for the next month or so; not that I've decided what to do to it yet!
Finally my Evike order arrived, and everything else I ordered!
5:11 Waistcoat (although its too big so I'm going to sell it)
Inert Smoke Grenades
2 Surefire G2 Lights
Offset light mount
Angel Custom Steel Charging Handle
2 WE G36 Magazines
Multicam single point sling
Ebairsoft MBUS Sights
G36 Flat top rail
NPAS Key, mini screwdrivers, big screwdrivers, small hammer, silicon oil, duct tape, pen knife, letterman, pull through. Packed up in a nice little DPM pouch and keep it all in the boot.
I've never had too much of an issue with my G39, only time I remember it slowing down was at STANTA Easter '13 when it snowed. Since then I wrap the mags in a thin sheet of foam and sniper tape, seems to work for me when it starts to get cold and nasty for GBBR users between October and April.
My Evike order has cleared customs and I haven't had to pay a handling fee! First time for everything eh?! Other than that I picked up a Peli 1450 case off eBay for £2!! And a Surefire G2 for £26. So in all its looking pretty good!
I wear what works for me. So my boots, combat trousers (MTP/DPM/OD), a multicam thigh holster and a tan magpul polo shirt. If its a bit colder I might throw a shirt or jacket on over the top. I've got a set of PLCE for milsim games and a lightweight chest rig for when I can be asked to carry all the magazines for my rifle.
I managed to somehow use a flat head screwdriver on my WE G36 ones. But if its leaking then oil up the O-rings with silicon oil, and wrap some PTFE tape round all the valves then screw them back in. Then you should have a nice leak free no problems magazine
An ASG KP09, which performs amazingly! Plus some more magazines, a steel charging handle, and a tightbore barrel for my WE G39 project. Oh and some 60p MBUS
In the process of gearing up for Op Ironstrike, so I've ordered a fair few things;
FG Airsoft WE G39 upgrade kit
Magpul AAC Flashider (For the G36)
G&G 30mm AP
Warrior Shorty Double M4 Pouch
Spray paint from Halfords
Plasticuffs
And when the next paycheck comes in, some G39 mags, some more 1911 mags, a new baseball cap and some cyalumes.
I'll second working in retail and the people with no manners.
If I'm serving someone, why should I have to wait for them to finish their phone conversation so that they can pay? And then other people who also work in a shop who think that they can tell you how to do your job i.e. "Why have you closed the checkout? There are more than 3 people waiting."
Do one.
f*ck me! I just checked this post after about a year since I posted it and was amazed with some of the replies!
I will point out a fair few of the Stirling blokes are serving or ex-forces and they prefer it to skirmishing - I personally can't stand being told about tactics by a kid who can barely hold the weapon never mind use it lol!
I can see why some people might think of it as sad but hey - freedom of speech!

As I wanted to challenege myself, I have decided to enrol myself into Stirling Selection (2011). Details of the course are a bit sketchy as I can understand.
Can anyone give me any advice/tips ?
Thanks,
