Because it's made of resin/plastic, not metal (as I thought) and will break.

In preparation for Collectormania Glasgow at the end of the month, I tried to get all my gear into an army kit bag for transporting it all in one.

It fitted okay, except for the boots (which I'll probably wear anyway):


all in rather snugly:


However, when I took everything out of the bag, half of the stock was laying at the bottom.

I've superglued it together, but don't know how well it'll hold.

Guess I'd better get a metal one pronto.

Use some black gaffer tape dude... The British Army is held together by it, so there's no reason why a multi-trillion corporation-backed futuristic military force wouldn't be either... :p
