Army Surplus Shops

Has anyone tried www.qmstores.co.uk?
I met the owner Phil on a course a couple of weeks ago - really nice guy who was very helpful and uses the courses to field test the kit he sells. If he thinks it's OK he sells it.
The web site is good, but I haven't purchased anything yet - I'm saving up for a new pair of Lowa boots.
Thanks for posting the list of stores.

Another place I found a link for whilst searching for goods was Outdoor Code - http://www.outdoorcode.co.uk/catalog/ - I would be interested to know if anyone has had any dealings with them, good bad etc. They also sell the bushcraft magazine, so I wondered if they were affiliated in some way.
Strikeforce are good, but Endicotts rule! I have actually considered making a cross-country pilgrimage just to have a rumage...
Leith Army Stores used to be a lot better than they are now. These days, there's almost no surplus kit at all - it's all WebTex knock-offs and generic camping kit. They're OK for clothing though - British lightweights, German moleskins, shirts and so on. However, I don't see any reason to buy from them online - they're nothing exceptional. I just use 'em 'cos they're local.

Anyone got experience with www.militaryandoutdoor.co.uk ?
Also I'd like to know which shops cost little to ship to the rest of europe. there are indeed german shops like asmc.de, http://www.riversandrocks.de/ , ... but postage from those shops is also quite high to belgium.

Yes they do rule and have the best customer relations I have experienced.
I got it wrong when I stated they don't have a website though, Thanks Gregorach
