Have a look at Lukey's pics in the loadout thread for a pretty decent Brit Squaddie loadout. Also dont bother with a pistol (P226 or Hi-Power) as your average squaddie wont be issued with one. (More for specialists/ncos/officers etc). Also are you going for temperate or desert loadout? For temperate my advice would be: Mk6/Mk7 Helmet (with DPM cover) http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/combat-helmet-mk-6-/...=item1c1cf7eccc Boonie http://flecktarn.co.uk/dpcbh0na.html DPM Shirt and Trousers Black Combat Boots I think you can find your own link PLCE Webbing system http://flecktarn.co.uk/dpwws2nx.html Scrim Neck Scarf or Shemagh Heres a link to the British Army's current equipment brochure. http://www.army.mod.uk/documents/general/2...V12.PDF_web.pdf Hope this helps

Any pics of your work in progress?

Externally it is very good, with loads of options for different set ups and loadouts. Internally, it has decent wiring but the performance is only about average. However, it is reliable and robust and now that the gears, piston, inner barrell and motor have been replaced it does shoot well. In truth I bought it on a whim as I liked the Daniel Defence full metal body so I have not been disappointed. For £300 plus there are definately better guns out there.

Used my M4 at the weekend for the first time in ages, thought I would get a few pics: Its a SOCOM Gear Daniel Defence M4A1 which has been reduced to a CQB length and has been heavily Magpul'ed. Its got a HurricanE Eotech 552 and Surefire Scout Light attached. FPS is 320 with 0.2g BBs and it has a full metal body and tightbore barrell fitted.

Ok; here is my KWA B&T MP9 GBB SMG. I took these on the day I got it. Its great for CQB, with a terrific RoF. FPS is 330 with 0.2g BBs at 12 degrees C with Abbey Ultra gas. With Guarder Black gas at room temperature it was pushing out 385!!!! Downside is that the mags cost £40 each Anyway here are the pics: As I said before, these are old pics. The Eotech (Clone) is from my M4 but I have put a small Aimpoint T1 Red-dot on it and it is much better (the T1 has a far lower profile). For indoor games I also mount my Surefire Scout Light. The sling is a WAS SF Single Point sling, but I can use the MP9 as a sidearm; and for this I use a Blackhawk Weapons Catch that velcros around the Sight, onto my belt. Hope you like. Neil

My pride and joy, an ARES Defence Shrike AWS (Advanced Weapon System). Its a dual-feed (Belt-fed and/or STANAG mag capability), mine is the HurricanE full metal kit fitted onto a CA CQB-R (Only gun I could get my hands on). It has a Prometheus Tight bore barrell and upgraded internals. I have two electric 5,000 rd HurricanE that easily keep up with its 20+ BB per second fire rate. FPS is a decent 320. I mainly use 0.28g BBs in it and because of the TM hop rubber and hop-unit thet fly for miles..... Gun is topped off with an Elcan 3x Scope. (clone 8) ) Here is a you-tube clip of a real-steel in action:
