You're meant to declare just about eeeverything to the tax people.  I most certainly do, oh yes.

Didn't he also claim to be supplying the Russian army with his gillie suits? Maybe that's why they're on day 632 of their 3 day "speshul military operation"

Does that include wearing tigerstripe for skirmishing in but UCP for shopping?

Part of the briefing at The Mall was always pointing out that Thames Valley ARU were stationed just over the road so NOT using a gun bag was strongly discouraged!

Unfortunately there are some in this hobby who could do with a lesson in common sense. For example on my last trip to Bunker 51 while having a cigarette outside another player arrived openly carrying his M4 slung over one shoulder. I'm assuming he only carried it from his car and while the road is a minor back street it still struck me as not a clever thing to do

Tactical Uggs.
 

 
 
Just saying...

Gonna thoroughly disagree with all airsofters knowing what deodorant is/that showering every day is a necessity lol.
 
Tbh I don't see much of a difference between a bunch of airsoft players going to The Mall back when that ran (or one of the many other currently operating sites that are in the middle of a dense urban area) vs con attendees heading to their expo centre... or me just transporting a RIF from any address to another for a reason that's within the law i.e. to one of the techs I use.  Or buying a RIF from an airsoft shop and bring it home.  Or buying an air rifle or crossbow or whatever else from a shop and taking it home.
 
If you let people see a 'gun' in public (in the UK) then guess what, ya dun fucked up son.  If you keep it totally hidden until you are within an area where gun-shaped things are legal to display and the appearance of said items is very much expected by everyone around, then that's going to be fine.

One repeating factor I see alot in this discussion is when people first started playing Airsoft they watched his videos and that got them into the sport I know he does go for painful areas but another great way to make those areas less painful is to wear proper face protection noone is ever going to leave an Airsoft game happy after being shot in the face unless they have full mesh face pro 😁 he's a fantastic player and shows alot of what's available in the sport and you have to remember these people who slag him off usually aren't as able bodied to play Airsoft properly and so they get annoyed when someone manages to outplay them, not trying to trigger anyone with this just trying to give it a different viewpoint on it 

There was a time around the end of the freefloated quad rail era (but before KeyMod) where the latest cool tech in handguards was direct thread attachment i.e. screw-on accessories.  The holes in handguards of that era do resemble M-LOK, but the many threaded holes are the key indicator when trying to discern.  We're talking right around a decade ago now though so I'd imagine most folks just aren't aware.
 
Honestly it was a great system that made forends thin and light, but often the accessories were proprietary to a given make of handguard which hampered adoption in the market and it all mostly vanished once KeyMod hit the big time.  Q are actually kinda going back to it now with their Q-Sert alternative system.

The SMR rail isn’t designed for MLOK, the rails not off spec or anything 😅

This might be useful for you.

I know, was tongue in cheek here too!
 
I like how they started off doing pushbikes and sewing machines and stuff and then just went "fuck it, let's make guns again!"

Handy they were formed after the war, eh?

Mm, with some ex Mauser weapon designers that were around in germany in 1949.. 😂  Just messing with Spoons obviously, just a choice combo of company + phrase, I think we can safely say HK now is fine.

Found this little thing at Ant Supplies at a bargain price... it should be enough to hold the 4x32 air rifle scope I have (it's very light weight)

A lot of the modern 1-piece scope mounts do cantilever forward and don't require a lot of 20mm slots, what you have should be enough for something out there.  Cheek weld may be the other issue, as tends to crop up with designs from the 50s(ish) where optics weren't really accommodated for, so I'd say bear that in mind.

The denali was definitely the daddy of overkill when it came to magazine capacity, on top of all the vertical BIG mag pouches you had the zip on lower section that had further horizontal mag pouches, at a guess I'd say 20-25 stanag mag carry was achievable, my back hurts thinking about it. 
Recently picked up a helikon tmr, added a condor hydra back panel & I'm modding some kydex type mag inserts to allow instant switching between 7.62, 5.56, & 9mm smg mags without swapping inserts. 
Yep, I know I always recommend the bulle mle when asked, but I think my decades long search for the perfect loadout (for me🤯) has triggered a bit of ocd, not helped by my recent forced downtime. 

That pic is either the Warlord or Denali, I looked up both on google images to see which picture I could find of the most comically huge/overloaded chest rig possible.
 
I think if someone had to gun to my head and forced me to recommend one bit of gear that'd be most likely to the majority of people for sunday skirmishes, I'd probably go for something with the footprint of a Spiritus Thing 2 (other systems are available).

I had to.
