Ok, I had a feeling it was that.

And your order will be all ready when the store opens. :fonz:

Cool. Thanks! :cananim:

I'm also thinking about buying some small arms for personal, everyday use. I've narrowed down the list to two shotguns, two pistols, and two submachine guns. Which do you think is better, the Remington 870 or the Mossberg 500? And the Glock 17 or the SIG-Sauer P226? And lastly, the HK MP5K-PDW or the HK UMP9?

To answer your questions I’ll need some info on what they are to be used for.

Oh, nothing, just going to dish out some vigilante justice, you know, kill some gangsters that have been congregating in my city the last few years, rob their gangs, that sorta thang. :whistle:

I'll also need a full set of Type IV body armour, some black special forces type BDUs, a pair of good combat boots, a black balaclava (with one big oval hole for the eyes), and a ballistic face mask (preferably one that can cover the entire head) with bullet-resistant glass lenses in the eye sockets. All fire retardant if that's possible. A small messenger bag/pouch too, that I can carry all my ammo and stuff in. Do you sell C4 or Semtex? I could probably find some uses for a few blocks of those. I'd also like some white phosphorous grenades if you have any in stock. And Batman's Tumbler. I need a ride, and that would do very nicely.

Wow big edit while I was thinking about what to post.

For the guns it’s really to close to call. The Remington 870, Glock 17, and the SIG-Sauer P226 are all used by Canadian forces or police, which might make them cooler. The HK UMP9 isn’t as widely used so if you don’t want to be tracked easily try the HK MP5K-PDW. That’s all I can really advise you. As always The Mega Man’s Store has anything a man could every need. This will all be added to your pervious order so you may pick it up when the store opens. Oh and all transactions are strictly private.

Awesome! I'll take the Remington, MP5, both pistols, plenty of ammunition, and let's say five extra magazines each for the SMG and handguns. Thanks! :cheers: :D

Edit:
Ooh, almost forgot, a couple thigh holsters for the pistols!

And to think, all I wanted was a regular old door my big missile. :blink:

It's probably in the hundreds of billions for the missile alone. :wacko:

I think most military procurement goes the same way.

Of course. I did place an order for various articles of clothing, a couple different types of explosives, drop pods, power armour, the Batmobile, the services of a team of space marines, after all.

Back when this place was called Garpa, they used to run a laundry service. Is that still going?

Once construction is finished we will definitely have a laundry service. The Mega Man’s Store is meant to have anything a man could desire. Unfortunately the building isn’t going to be finished for a few days yet.

So I did a little research and found out the Tumbler is equipped with two forward autocannons and a rocket launcher. I'd like to get rid of the passenger's seat, put the driver's in the middle, and add a pair of GE M134 Minigun turrets firing saboted kinetic energy penetrating depleted uranium flechette rounds on either side of the driver that pop out the sides of the vehicle when activated. Thanks in advance!

Would it not just be easier to upgrade the existing autocannons? Autocannons are like machine guns, but usually use rounds bigger than 20mm and are designed to fire both conventional rounds and explosive rounds. Since I don’t what autocannons the Tumbler uses, I can’t really say how they should be upgraded.

Well, they have a slower rate of fire, but more importantly, they're in fixed position and only face forwards.

Most have a slower rate of fire because they overheat too fast. The BMP-3 for example has a 30mm autocannon with an rpm of 350 to 400 and can fire more than one type of ammo due to its dual feed system. Autocannons may also be used for CIWS and AA purposes. Also a high rpm autocannon runs out of ammo quickly since it’s hard to carry a whole lot. When picking a gun it’s important to know what it is going to be used against. If your going to blow up anything beyond light vehicles an autocannon might be the better pick than a 7.62mm machine gun.

Yeah, Batman doesn't really use it that much in the movies. Mostly just to blow apart obstacles in his way. I was thinking the minigun turrets would be more suitable to engage moving targets like chase cars. And like I said earlier, the cannons only face forward, making it hard to take out anything behind, or even beside him.
