The 'What have you just bought' Thread

I hear ya. Been playing with an AEG for several years and got the chance to run a GHK Aks74u GBBR a couple months ago and can't imagine myself buying another AEG again. I'll probably wind up getting a MWS Block 1 or if the stars align and there's ever a GHK M4 or Ak74u in stock, one of those.

Not gonna lie, I'm jealous as F right now staring at your loadout.
 

That's what I loved about using the Aks74u GBBR. It Forced me to play a far more calculated game as opposed to my regular "rush and flank their sides asap, guns blazing". Also very true about having a backup AEG. Something he should look into. Luckily there's no shortage of reliable and affordable AEGs these days.

But I'm sure as shit ready to start using a GBBR as my chosen primary just as soon as there's a MWS or GHK ak or M4 in stock.?
I haven't regretted my MWS for a second. Seems more satisfying getting into a decent position and picking people off carefully, rather than mag dumping into bushes. I mean, I still do that occasionally ?

Whatever you choose, MWS, GHK, you'll enjoy it pal.

 
I’ve not got much ‘Airsoft stuff’ just clothing for casual and game days ….

 
now waiting for next payday so I can grab a titan li-ion battery for it.
What connector does it have ? If it’s a Tameya swap it for a deans asap , much better flow from the batt to the gun .?

@C-Diddy @Mr. No_Face I'm one happy guy! I will pick up a cheap second hand AEG at some point. Now I have the biggest lump sum of 1100 spent I shouldn't have too much of an issue saving up 200 for a backup aeg. Plenty to choose from on the classifieds. But boy I cant wait to maiden it on Sunday. I'll report back how it goes.

Good to hear pal. If you haven't already, take a look at Impulse101. They're the best place I've found for original TM parts at good prices, even with shipping from Japan. Delivery to UK is, on average, 9-11 days. Things you might want to have in your toolbox are spare nozzles, nozzle return spring, hop rubbers and mag lips. Wouldn't worry too much though just yet, but bear in mind those are common parts that fail eventually.

Also, search for the guide @Davegolfposted in the MWS thread. He's listed all the essential tools and maintenance products you may need.

Finally, and this goes for all guns, not just the MWS, use good quality BBs. 

And for £200 you'll easily pick up a decent back-up AEG. Just don't fool yourself that your initial £1,100 is you done. Just wait til you look at HAO Industries parts, real steel furniture, optics etc etc ?

Enjoy though pal.

Thanks for the advice. Haven't seenninpulse101 yet will take a look. I do plan on buying the common parts that break before they do. I know my wallet is far from seeing the end of spending haha. O have already been eying up furniture. I like the fab defense look. Their style is what I'm after. Not heard of HAO though. Will have a look at them. Will also check out Dave's guide. Have bought the grease and a few other maintenance bits but ran out of cash haha for now. Bought ASG blaster bbs. As read good things about them. And gas wise. I went for the Zero one as it's made by abbey and uses UPL as a lubricant instead of silicon oil as a few sources say silicon oil is for seals etc not really mechanical parts like UPL.

On the side of the magwell just below the round counter .

it wasn’t cheap came from the states , but I think worth it , it’s ever so slightly 3D like an embossed name plate .
Oooh nice.  I might try and make something similar

Sounds like you're all set then! 

I use the same gas and ASG BBs are decent. I use Devil Blasters and want to try Open Blasters too. Good experience with Geoffs Precision too.

You'll find the MWS is so easy to get loads of external bits and bobs for. Just go with what you want, but try and avoid Angry Gun parts if there are other manufacturers, as they seem to be really hit and miss.

I think it may have been you who recommended the ZO gas at 6 for £40. I went with that in the end. I have a bottle of devil blasters .28 blaster .20 and blaster tracers .28. Your not the first person to say angry gun stuff isn't very good. I shall stay away. I don't plan on modding internals yet as I want to get to know the rifle stock. Only real upgrade I know I want is the SixG brass nub as everyone here raves about it. After that I will upgrade as things break or once I have a better feel for the rifle and know what I want more from.

 Bought the following gear.

  • Comtac II headset with coms to mount to my mtek fast helmet.
  • 3mm thick lexan/polycarbonate lenses for my new mask
  • Mil-tec Face camo. Unnecessary yes, but I use it to darken my eyes. You know...that batman look?‍♂️

Game day is Saturday for me. Gonna be stalking my teammates and carefully observing their rigs until I find a GBBR user to swap with. lol At least for  one objective or so. Good luck on game day bro, I'm keen to hear how your new rig performs out of the box.
