The 'What have you just bought' Thread

[Ebeneezer Goode]

After a couple of years of humming and hawing, my stunning and loving wife bought me this as a combined 10th anniversary/36th Birthday present. Finally joined the AK race with this CYMA 028U.

I can now see why CYMA AKs are raved about so much. Excellent quality for the price, cycles lovely and crisp and by airsoft standards accurate and consistent. Not sure how it will fit in with my generic scifi Disaster Chief/Orbital Drop Short Trooper/DoomedGuy look, but no matter. Have already nicknamed it "The Lada" in homage to its Soviet/Commie heritage.

Two-tone unfortunately however reckon I'll break out the halfords OD spray soon so it can fit in with its other comrades in my plastic armoury.

Bought an old ammo crate. (only GBP10,00. so no biggie)
The add said the crate was 96CM long with walls of 1CM thick. Rifle is, stock at the shortest, 89CM. Thought it would make a cool looking rifle case (and actually not even that heavy).

Turns out the walls are 1" thick with the blocks where the rope goes through another 1", so a total loss of 4" over both sides.

Gonna have to cut 3CM of off my flashider it seems ?

So I spotted this on Gumtree and contacted the seller before the listing was deleted (anything gun shaped is forbidden to be sold there)

The seller knows nothing about its history, so I gotta start somewhere

I believe it’s made by Daisy, and was only in production for almost 1 year before they were forced to cease manufacture - apparently due to it being too realistic ?

I can hardly find any mention of it online

I dunno if it’s metal or plastic, seller is a bit vague other than it’s working. But it’s on its way to me!

More a collectors piece than a skirmishable rif I think (not that I’m a collector , but couldn’t resist)

Any of our veteran members able to shine a light on this please?

these are the only pics I’ve got until it arrives…..

Nice!

By the way, ASGK is the Japanese airsoft regulatory commission, not a manufacturer.

TM Glock 17 gen 4. Never been particularly attracted to glocks aesthetically but I picked this up to use as a bit of a beater sidearm. My god this one shoots nice, sends .3s to space

I bought a new Pistol red dot yesterday.

Vector Optics Frenzy SCRD-M43, the one with a circle/dot reticle. Unlimited lifetime warranty as well.

So far, zero parallax error, great build quality.

As with all photo’s of reticles, it makes it look a lot smaller than it actually is (it’s 35moa)

 'humiliation' / 'have a laugh' gun

Not the most recent purchase,  as I bought it at the AI500 in wales.

Picked up a Maxtact derringer as a second humiliation gun. (My first is a TM LCPII bought at last years AI500 in Rochdale)

Didn't get a chance to use it in game though

A couple of boneyard purchases...

Action Hobbies does me a favour again...
3 x polymer mid-caps for £7 which are to go in my Tippmann, because the Lonex flash mags quite often unwind on insertion, so these seem a better bet.  Also, I'm only going to run the Tippmann on semi-auto - seems a bit more 'suitable' to that play-style.   (And as a  minor bonus I get to use the Odin knock-off I bought second hand yonks ago)

An Eotech clone for £8.   Just cos I can't stop myself buying super-cheapo optics, it seems.    It's not that bad, surprisingly!

And Land Warrior returned the pair of VFC HK416 mags I bought a couple of weeks ago, that were leaking.   They now seem fixed, and they turned them around pleasingly quickly ... i.e. just in time for my next game-day tomorrow.  Phew!

After creating this post,



I ended up going away off the track of DNC , usual kinda thing that, right?

So anyway, just arrived today

A Spanky pair of Krydex G3 in Tiger Stripe. 
Had a quick look over them when they arrived, good material, certainly better than my Emerson MTP’s also they have stretch panels. 
Might have a wee beer tonight and get the complete Larp-on in my mums basement ?

Nothing very exciting; a Double Bell KAC PDW.

A quick reshim, new pistol grip, high torque motor, ZCI 6.02mm barrel, Maple Leaf 60 degree Macaron and Gearparts 70 degree nub, new spring, new nozzle and a CHiLUN ETU.

I took this to Tower Airsoft today for its first outing; a truly excellent little gun.  Great range and accuracy and very consistent power.

Nothing too exciting.

Delta Mike mk2 in dark woodland.

3 metres of 1inch webbing in woodland camo with 5 plastic and 1 metal triglide, 1 metal spring loaded cam buckle and a metal hk clip. Plan to make my own adjustable 2 point sling.

Bought this hop unit for my T-11;

Next week it'll be this tracer plus whatever tracer 0.28/0.25g I can find.

And maybe in two/three weeks another couple of pouches from Baribal.pl

Good choice. Got one of those in my T10, and I'm liking it very much.

Big improvement over the original AA red unit, or the Tridos ones I've used before.

Currently I'm using the stock chamber with a GS TDC turret.

GS TDC is nice but it's HUGE and it's very easy to knock it off adjustment, also I wanted to try something new

 

[Hudson]

I've just installed a gunsmithy TDC in one of mine myself, actually!

 

[Speedbird_666]

Just received a boneyard Classic Army UMP from @THE FNG.

She'll need a bit of work, but I'm hoping to have her up and running for my next day of BBwarz. I forgot how much I love H&K plastic spaceguns (*looking at my big pile of boring M4s*).

Thanks to @Louish118

I enquired about his HK decals

He didn’t have quite what I was after, but was able to get these knocked up for my TM 416 which for some reason TM don’t do the trades on the right side of the magwell 

So here’s a before & after ?
