Also besides SAS it was standard issue to British troops from MP`S to tank crews ,to signalers to engineers nice bit of kit but a gun which cost about 10 bob and a conker to build it was my favourite rather than lugging about the SLR at the time big long and darned heavy yep for choice Sterling for me

Got me through the Falklands conflict so I can`t complain sure $12K LOL wow but $12K you pay that for a smuge (Sterling SMG)

Cheers guys thanks for the help with the helmet now my next question is the armour for it is there a specific make or style ??? im trying to get this all together for a friends son a mad Star Wars fan and I want to give him his call up papers so to speak but guys thanks for the help.

Hi,all, Being a very raw recuit I have a helmet which I find hard to find any good remarks its a EFX empire strikes back helmet being as newbie as I said is it a load of rubbish or what Im lost at what I have can anyone give a little tea and sympathy (yep I`m a Brit) or good cheer we all have to learn after looking at the 501st requirements I feel like I`ve got a boobey prize so any one out there give me some advice on what I got or is it trash compacter stuff.

The crux of this is that a certain few who have used replica weapons for criminal activity has made it harder for those who are not into that way of life and now we all suffer for the few I`d love Denix to make the sterling but I must admit owning the MP40 the metal used is rather soft and easily marked but its still a great idea

Some of the blasters made in the US are mouth watering compared to the stuff sold here in the UK and to be honest with our stupid governments of the past and future we hold no hope of having our dreams shattered by our so called intelligent leaders and of course those who know much better my gripe is we are wanting the blasters for trooping but if we buy do we loose our blasters and hard earned cash if we follow our wantings of a top class blaster I`d love to know how the law stands here on imports in the UK but knowing or contacting customs here are near on getting a personel chat with the lord neither one employee to the next really knows they see a gun and its illegal so has any Brit trooper had any trouble inporting a US (made in heaven ) blaster please give me the info im desperate to get or do I have to suffer with great envy of the troopers in the US and other countries who have the right kit ?????????????

Hi Same stupid gun laws in the UK too even a Doopy Doos in not made up form was stopped here in the inland UK post maybe they thought I was the day of the Jackal type of guy ???, god knows how hard it would be for a fully made up blaster to be sent through international imports but never mind the real guns on the streets so stupid but thats any government for you in any country easier to block the post rather than chasing down illegal weapons its a damned sore subject with me here could rant all day but yeah go for the kit version be safer than having the blaster failing to get to you by some government mandarin and some pie eyed law .

Brilliant!!!!!! had this kit for over a year and still unmade as you have show the way I shall follow cheers and many thanks from the UK .

Very nice indeedonly one thing is that here in the UK the Draconian gun laws and of course the price of deactivated firearms like the sterling are astronomical even to consider a chop job on one let alone buying one so if one is`nt filthy rich we have to stick to the Hasbro model for conversion which I find very light I`d love to get a sterling convert it or then again would I just keep it as a oldd friend as we once were during my time in the British army a very bad choice but thank you for sharing a piece of joy to see built .

Can anyone supply any infomation on padding up a helmet and a newbie as I am I got FX helmet but I like to see any pictures of padded helmets tips anything just to give me a idea before I mess up Thanks every one
