You can get most of the early stories in collected editions these days. Amazon sell the Dredd Casefiles which is all the storylines from Prog1 on!

Fantastic work there fella! Have a look at the Dredd Costuming Group on the Replica Prop Forum if you want to see some screen accurate stuff although you appear to already have exactly the right trousers! Oh and Ian, there's a stack of good old "analogue" 2000ads in my loft. goes back to about issue 100 (my mum made throw 1-100 away when I was a kid. Grrrr.) Nice to know I'm not the only old school geek!

Just back from the regular lunchtime trip to Socom Tactical Today's buys: Dytac Navy Spartan M4 receiver kit Viper Drop leg adjustable holster usual bits and bobs

If budget is unlimited and you're happy to be paying nasally for the brand then I'd say yes, go for a Vaio. Or a Dell XPS (and put up with the horrible customer service when it inevitably goes wrong). If budget and performance are your driving factors then Scan and Novatech would be my recommendations. The Novatech i7 based ones around £700 are pretty damn good and I've always had good service from them (we used them for work machines for a while).

Have you tried the Sniper Hunt trick? With C4? Awesome fun!

The Viper tactical sling (the 3 point convertible one that is) comes with a sling point/strap thingy like that. It's how I attach mine to my M4.

The Magpul fairy has just left a deposit on my desk

Just won a pair of ESS Advancer V12 goggles on the 'bay! £15.50 +p&p. GET IN!

Yeah but they ACTUALLY have no life.

1206 Hours played? Have you considered y'know...going out of the house?

I used to have a Limited Edition GSXR750H just like this one: only less new and shiny. Loved it. Crashed into a pedestrian (not my fault - small girl ran out in front of me) and that kind of put me off. Plus I have no garage where I live now so I had to sell it. Gutted, still miss riding now.

Re the holster for the hand cannon of doom - these: http://www.military1st.co.uk/16145102-mil-tec-adjustable-leg-holster-cordura-black.html are open ended so the barrel can just stick out the bottom. Cheap too so might be worth considering.

Hey Black Death, pretty sweet looking set up you have there. Just one thing sprang to mind having played at The Malls in Reading last week is how the f*ck you would fit down some of the back corridors! Not a lot of room for someone of your....girth! If you should decide you need a bit more load capacity, the MilTec Modular System vest is all mesh and breathes really well (I sweat like a pig on heat too).

Yup. It's the only way to play shooters in my opinion.
