My new mag pouches arrived from China (in fairly good time), and I can happily confirm they're the same size as the very first mag pouch I ever bought, and they happily accept (and retain!) the STANAG, AUG and M14 mags. They allow easy extraction and re-insertion. Obviously the STANAG M4 mags are the least secure, but I can still hold the pouch upside down and give it a shake without an empty Lonax mag falling out. And that's before I've tweaked the bungee cords.
The MOLLE clips aren't brilliantly made (and the the retaining bits have some sprue on them which I'm trimming off, to improve their fitment) but yeah - they're good pouches. Especially for the low price they cost.

Time to get the rattle cans out and make them a bit 'MTP'. And to return the WAS 7.62 pouches and get my £60 back.
Also got the M14 sight mount.

Annoyingly the bolt for the forward hole is too big for the hole on the Cyma's body, I'm going to need to ream that out a mm or two. I used to have the thread tool with a variety of bits, but I've misplaced the damn thing...
It's a heavy lump of metal, on a heavy gun. I don't think I'll be putting a full scope on it... unless it's to use for a couple of short games!
Edit: Oooh I do love an unexpected visit from the delivery man...

Visionking 1.25-5 scope. Got this on the classifieds, stuck it on my DE and I'm already impressed. Nice clear glass, good illuminated reticule, and it was even zeroed pretty well
It's quite heavy though - it won't be going on the M14!
