I am looking for infantry accessories - backpacks, radios etc, suitable for WH40K. Can anyone recommend a supplier?

The smaller 1/35 packs will work.  Dragon makes quite a few WWII and modern accessory packs in that scale.  I used them in my SWAT team army.

The late, lamented Warzone game had plastic figures with gas masks and backpacks, no available for song from Prince August.

And The Assault Group also makes modern 28mm accessories in metal.

Those assault group prices are crazy: 3 pounds for a single weapon or back pack? Holy Loco-Capitalista Diablos, Batman!

I can suggest a few.

ALICE packs from devil dog design (don't know details outside of the fact that their other figures are the right size and that $10 for 20 is a good deal)

Bergen rucksacks from HLBS (I warn you that these are a little large)

Bits from GW itself

I highly recommend these backpacks from a guy on ebay. he sells them 20 for 4 dollars and they are extremely nice. the only downside is you will probably get a couple that have a slight mismold on the bedroll but for the price i thought it was well worth it. i put one on every infantyman in my guard army.

here is a pic of the backpack http://i10.ebayimg.com/02/i/02/d7/dc/4c_1_b.JPG

Do their minis scale up to GW as well as their prices?

Please tell me 3 BP gets you more than a single bayonet....
