This is because the contracting side of the work has been accomplished by FISC. All products in SERVMART have been vetted and the vendors are under contract to provide them.
One local vendor is Tidewater Tactical who provides a wide variety of quality tactical products. Whether or not you are a SERVMART customer be sure to check them out.

British Spy Agency Searches for Real-Life `Q’
Monday, April 20th, 2009AP reports that the MI-5, the British agency responsible for domestic espionage has posted an ad for a “Chief Scientific Advisor”. “Q” was James Bond’s go to guy for weapons, vehicles and other assorted gadgets designed to create mayhem.
Candidates for the MI5 job need to be at least 18, British or naturalized citizens who have “world-class scientific expertise and credibility in relevant scientific and technology disciplines, outstanding influencing and communication skills, experience of building an effective network and of creating a high quality team.”
While no salary was mentioned the hours are great, requiring only two or three days a week. So British Boffins get your CVs together. This could be your shot at the big time.

I look forward to taking on the role of CEO and will do everything in my power to help improve our market position, productivity, and our financial performance.
