Metal BB's can be found at Wal*Marts. Or maybe a hunting and fishing shop if you see one.

Lets hope that between my mums planned culture(EWW), my dads buisness meetings and the 14dinners i will have time to get all this...And you are sure that i can get through customs? I was held up before because of my fishing rod which an idiot at the airport confused with a kalashnikov(IDIOT!!) so i do not feel like doing that all again...

Yeah I got through fine. They checked my bags (because I found a sticker on it saying so), but that was it.

If you really want a QEV, I could take a train into NYC and sell you one of my spares.
