For those that are interested and as I can find very little online:
 
Overall it was a good site. The size is approx 100 acres and the games are long and flowing. Expect to be out all morning. The terrain is fairly flat but there is lots of folds in the ground and vegetation. Engagement ranges vary with neither long or short being over represented. 
 
Hit taking was excellent from what I noticed and there wasn’t much grumbling apart from one very obvious issue. 
 
The briefs. Oh my days they go on and on and on. I’m fairly certain the opening brief took well over half an hour but by the end I had completely switched off. Easily the longest by a fair margin that I have experienced at any site and mainly irrelevant to the actual game. Not surprisingly I heard some of the marshalls moaning people weren’t listening to briefs. Hardly surprising all things considering. Fix this and it will be an epic site that’s well priced.
 
Alas no amenities were there but be forewarned and bring your own food and drink. Although you do get a can of crisps and a bottle of pop at lunch which is a nice touch considering it’s £20 for the day. 

Spot of modification to an issued smoke grenade pouch and a side pouch liner. 
 
I present to you a small utility pouch...

Homage to a scout sniper:
 
KJW M700 as a base, barrel shortened for 430mm inner barrel and a CO2 adaptor for the stock. Just waiting on one connector and will be good to go.

Finally I have it where I want it. 
 
SRS A1 covert,
Random foam filled suppressor,
Rapax 2J with 1x spacer - 334+-2 fps on Geoffs .43s,
Faceless barrel 420mm, 60deg r hop patch and 100% airseal bucking with a FAST hop (perfect air seal)
Wasp piston with medium weight and full break and their spring guide,
Stock filled with expanding foam,
Random Tesco scope on high mounts.
 
All in all very happy now and shooting great already out to 64m (furthest I can get at present) and I’m certain when the hop beds in it will be a real tack driver.  Also, as a bonus, it sounds like a good mk23 and has a dull thud when firing so should be almost unheard outside the med. 
 
All that’s left is to put some cut up leaf trouser leg strips on it so it really blends in with the vegetation. 

@DerDer no I didn’t. But it was only 100 euros so doesn’t breach the limit (as I understand it). Also they paused UK shipping briefly so I suspect they were getting the necessary paperwork sorted and I ended up paying vat at point of sale. All a mystery but no extra charges. 

If anyone else wonders it arrived today. So patience is certainly required. 

All,

Just because I’m impatient, I ordered a barrel and some hop accessories from faceless over in Hungary. It states on the tracking it departed the country on the 27th but nothing since then. When can I realistically expect it do those with experience think?
 
Cheers in advance and damn my bored impatience. 

If it’s FRV it will be more than adequate for the job. They don’t mess about and know exactly what they are doing. 

Thanks mucca that clarifies it tremendously. I had assume it was twice as long as half of it.....

For the SRS I use the ones from skirmshop. 2 mags and one in the gun. For the hicapa I have just changed from good old issue mtp pouches to some elasticated blue force gear double mag pouch.
 
For the good old grenade it’s either a kydex TRMR holster from HW holsters or if I’m using my timed dynatex it’s a PECOC issued smoke grenade pouch. 
 
Hicapa with RMR sits in a cheap nuprol paddle holster. The utility pouch is just a viper one but it only carries a small bag of bbs and two speed loaders for each gun and some blanks. 
 
Can post a picture later if your interested.
