I remember a few very good halloween games, including one where a fully costumed Xenomorph crept up behind me and ripped my head off!, in a LARP kind of way of course! 😆

Not sure if I'll make any more Airsoft EM-2's - the pic. is of the prototype I've made - its cnc Aluminium and Walnut and took a lot of time/effort/money to create, and I don't think there's a lot of demand out there that would make it worthwhile. But I learnt a lot making it, and it did gain me the very real privillege of meeting with Jonathan Ferguson and getting to handle (cuddle?😁) several examples of the real thing. Worth it just for that!

Sorry I didn’t know

Literally just a TM.

Got a Romeo 2 off here and fitted it to the sand viper tonight along with a flamingo rubber. Decided to go with the full length shroud and waterproof extension now the weather's taking a turn for the worse.

A nice find. A brand new KSC SIG P230

It looks good however weight will be an issue and this is the same for the Quake. The Frag C is a better choice if you plan to run more than one as once you get to 3 or more it because quite a weight to carry but the Frag is much lighter and carrying 6 or more is about the same as 3 Quakes. The only advantage of the Jaeger or Quake is the multi shot options which isn't available for the Jaeger yet. The downside to multi shot is you need to retrieve the bang before using it again whereas carrying a few Frag's means you don't have that issue.

So, just to add. I've since had a few new pieces join the collection. The L130A1 This is the 7.62mm variant of the FN minimi. This system was only ever in use with UKSF/SFSG, and has been used for some time. These are usually seen with a TA01 with RMR, LA5 peq and a green LBT box mag. There are a few differences between the UK version and US version (MK48). GAS BLOCK/REG The US version uses the 7.62 type, while the UK version uses the older Minimi type, with even a MK1 type gas regulator knob. BIPOD US version uses the new improved style, while UK uses older type. RAILED HANDGUARD There are 2 US types. The improved tri rail or the older MK46 style over barrel rail. The UK version is similar to the KAC type tri rail. BOX MAG MOUNT Now I'm not entirely sure what this plate is there for. But the US version has a 2 holed plate, that sits underneath the feed tray. This is not present on the UK version. MARKINGS The US version has MK48 markings on the right sight, just before the stock. The UK version just has the standard minimi type markings, but marked for 7.62. My version is a Lambda defence version. Has a few things that need addressing A few holes left in the receiver from manufacturer. Clean up some of the rusty parts. Spray the receiver a satin black as issued. Try and source a green box mag, or try dying the one I have potentially. And to source a TA01 acog. Next up. M79 Some people don't realise, this particular weapon has been used by the British since the 70s in Northern Ireland, and one or two pictured during the falklands. These were later replace by the HK69 launchers. The British version came with a fibre glass stock. Not the wooden one issued to US forces. Most were seen using SLR slings too. Lastly. The L109A1. It's a SIG P230. This was sigs answer to the Walther PP/PPK & P5. This was issued to SAS as a concealed carry both on covert ops and for personal protection when in plain clothes. Other than that, not alot is known about this little pistol. There were also rumours this was issued to helicopter crews along with the Walther P5's. But the guys I know, who were in the RAF, only ever saw the walther P5's issued at the time. Mine is the old KSC P230JP version. Only down side, is that it's plastic bodied. But for a small pistol, is extremely comfortable. I'm really not sure what to do with this, other than leave it stock. As haven't seen any pics of issued ones to getting it looking authentic.

It'll be shite outdoors, that style of grenade always is. If you're playing indoors on hard surfaces, it should be fine.

Jaeger Precision has his new (TRMR clone) Impact grenade up for pre-order. I’ve been considering a reusable grenade for a while so this comes at a good moment to part me with more cash. Seems to be an updated and approved clone of the TRMR. Any reason not to get one? Price doesn’t bother me much as it’s a one and done so eventually it will pay for itself compared to single use pyros. Quake seems like the obvious competition but I subjectively prefer the looks of the Jaeger, shallow reasoning be that as it is. Not really interested in BB spitting alternatives.

Mine arrived today, looks bloody lovely Show some pics, looking for inspiration!

Hahaha. I would love to do an EM2 and the later sa80 prototype (as pictured). But time and funds aren't as free anymore. Struggling to keep up with issued kit. Let alone prototype stuff, haha. And yes.... the plastic definitely looks mouldy. Maybe they should give to me to look after...

It's pulled up adverts from all the way back to last year, haha

We're all pretending to be something we aren't & dressing up, so as much as I wouldn't be seen dead in a 'costume' at a game, I really like to see players who go all in and wear either full wehrmacht or pink fluffy bunny. I wish I had the confidence to do it but I'm too reserved.

I've bought BCG's from a variety of Asia sellers (Tiger111HK, RWA, WGC, AST to name a few), never entered anything other than my name/address and they just sail through customs.

Agreed. Themed games don't feel too special and get too common.
