It's looking like I will need to spend less than I initially thought then, can't argue with that one
I'm quite happy to do an initial outlay and then do the modifications necessary to become 501st approved, I'm certainly in no rush to "rush out and buy" moment. If I'm going to go through the process and buy a suit, I'll be careful with the inital purchase.
Good thing I double checked some photo's to, the blaster I was looking at earlier wasn't the correct one.
But to be sure, I will be in and out of this thread as I continue my progress.
Much appreciation for all the help so far
