Look at this thread: http://forums.zeroin.co.uk/showthread.php?61336-Resident-evil-loadouts-An-ongoing-guide/page2 Find post number 55 (where the picture I posted comes from) and it explains what the kit is. SAAV = South African Assault Vest (a type of chest rig with fixed pouches) here's a black one for less than £30 http://www.military1st.co.uk/10711002-mil-tec-south-african-assault-vest-black.html

I jest of course. Unfortunately there isn't an easy way to tell what power a spring is without putting it in a gun and chronoing it. That's why I always try and label any I take out of my guns with a bit of tape....

Lick it. If it tastes like apples then it's an M90.

You'll need a second hand one that somebody else has already upgraded then.

Despite being on *cough*zeroin*cough* this seems to be a pretty decent thread on the loadout. Look for the post on Page 2 that has the above photo as it details the rig and mods it's had done to it. Starts out as a bog stock SAAV rig though which you can get pretty much anywhere for not much money.

It looks like standard tiger stripe that's been overdyed with black to me.

The MK20 SSR is basically a long ass SCAR H so no, the mags won't fit into M4 pouches, you'll need 7.62 pouches (my recommendation is pretty much always UK Tactical for that). No idea on where to find mags though, sorry.

Can you be a bit more specific? I assume by RE you mean Resident Evil?

OK then. I had a pretty good trawl myself and it seems the general response is "get the G&G suppressor" as it's about the only on that fits

Having a degree or not doesn't make a lick of difference to someones level of common sense. You've either got it or you haven't. The thing I do find though is that ex apprentices seem to be more well rounded people than graduates, at least in the engineering side of things. Sales is a different beast.

It appears that my metal mojo is back with a vengeance! I must need to get out and shoot people 8)

Getting my Viking on!

Actually - are you sure it's 20mm and not 22mm?

If it's 20mm CW to 14mm CCW try this: http://aegcartasia.com/accessoires/attachments/adpps01.html Sorry, just realised that's 20mm external.

Just measured it and you're looking for a spring 3mm diameter by 12mm long. To be honest a spring from a decent retractable biro would probably work!

Leave it with me, I'll try and have a look tonight.

Have a look through the UK Tactical sale sections. Pretty sure you'd be able to save a bit by buying a combo set of WAS pouches.

I don't think you'll find that part listed specifically as a spare for that gun. I have the Socom Gear one that is based off the WE M9 so I could try and measure mine if you like?

Don't let TM's low muzzle velocity put you off. Their hop units are made of magic by wizards.

First off, hi and welcome to the forums. There's a thread for introductions...so feel free to go introduce yourself! Secondly, from the rest of your stripdown pics you appear to have a KWA PTP M9 not WE M9. That may have a slight bearing on what you need to get. Best bet would be to have a look on ebay for a pack of springs. Look for length and diameter. Just because it's an airsoft pistol doesn't make the spring terribly special. Should cost pence. Or try an engineering suppliers or maybe an RC car spares place, they use all sorts of fiddly little springs.

Depends on your end game as you say. While there's plenty of jobs that the practical experience offered by an apprenticeship will benefit, there's also plenty that have a much shorter progression curve if you have a degree. Speaking as an ex apprentice I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it as an option but as someone who is now in Account Management a degree would have got me higher, quicker.
