The 'What have you just bought' Thread

commonly regarded as their fugliest offering

I dunno, seems ok to me.

Certainly better than the abominations many people willingly do to their tm hicapas......

 

[Tackle]

I'd reckon there's a decent chance the Foliage Warrior is TM's slowest selling/least popular GBB pistol and perhaps the one most commonly regarded as their fugliest offering.  Probably lounges on stock room shelves for years and years.  So, here I am.

I like it?

No worries mate - That’s a nice build!

a surefire repro torch would look good on there!

I’m waiting for mine to come back from negative airsoft then I’m going to spray it aswell. 

What paints and netting did you use? id love to do my whole rifle like that, it looks great!

Ty mate, it's the first time I've rattlecanned a rifle so I'm pretty pleased with how it's turned out.
 

I'm thinking of getting a nice repro torch and an PEQ box just for the looks.

I used halfords camo spray paint. They're about 7 quid a can. I used khaki and brown on mine. The netting is a laundry net that I cut up because I never use it!

My green QD suppressor has been my preferred thing to run on my VFC HK416 for a while, but I've had a few rounds pinging out of it at odd angles.   So what's a man to do but spend some money on an alternative (that might be even worse!)

Yup, I bought a barrel extension, and although I've not test-fired to see if it's going to interfere with the BBs, it sure looks bad-ass to my eyes

Just ordered a Cygnus Armoury face warrior plus, hopefully it turns out better than the deltamike mask

Happy new to me...

The M16A3 will be rattle canned as a C7, no plans for the rest other than integrating into my collection displays.

As much as I like the MP7/9 design is it strange I find the VMP-1 ugly?

I like 'different', I didn't have one so I got one.

Stubby stock plus a couple new LiPos to stick in it (£24 posted for 2 packs from China Hobby Line).

Well, the buton was pushed (well the phone was tapped)....

AA G36, GBBR...  Stuck a spare red dot on there with a foregrip[ and the mini PEQ box I got the other day - which has a surprisingly effective strobe and torch function).  Came with two mags, but I bought a third for shits and giggles.

Surprised by how much gravity it has and less creaking than I was lead to expect from the vids online.  Standby for some potentially daft questions in the Gas Section.

Recoil is pretty effective too.

Do you have pouches they'll fit in?

I struggled with my m4 type mags(even the double mag pouches), so got some from the classifieds on here.

Lemme go check.....

They fit fine in my Osprey rig, although, not the official pouches - the flap doesn't reach over enough.  I have some Viper pouches on it with elastic straps, and they seem fine.

On my lightweight rig, they don't fit the regular pouches, but might go in the internal zipped ones.

Good man! No such things as daft questions either. I mean, that's not strictly true, but you know, ask away.

Now you'll be on the look out for the bulk buy gas offers!

I run a heating and plumbing business.....  I have bought one of those Adapters for plumbing blow torch gas.  Should be with me next week. ?

Picked up a KAC PDW by Double Bell today. Initial impressions are good as it seems well put together with no creaking or rattles. I'll put up a more detailed post when I've managed to take a good look at it

Just picked up a secondary Glock 27....as a back up for my secondary and a belt clip for my Sheriff loadout!

At the beginning of the year I decided to take the plunge and make a second MWS build. Although I'm really happy with my first, which I run completely stock, standfast a SixG nub and externals, this one I plan on tinkering with a bit. 

I started buying parts a few months back, and yesterday the last ones arrived. I'm building a 14.5" SOCOM URG-I from the following purchases:

·        TM M4A1 Carbine base

·        HAO Mk16 13.5” handguard

·        HAO SOCOM Daniel Defense 14.5” outer barrel

·        HAO Surefire 4-prong flash hider

·        HAO Geiselle low profile gas block

·        HAO Geiselle Ultra Precision trigger guard

·        HAO SF 556 SOCOM suppressor (hardcore version)

·        Angry Gun Geiselle Airborne Charging Handle

·        Magpul K2+ grip

·        Magpul M-LOK hand stop

·        Magpul SL Stock

·        BavTac MHN

·        Bavtac Titanium Zet Plate

·        BavTac 140% nozzle return spring

·        Blue Force Gear padded VCAS (Olive Drab)

·        Blue Force Gear QD sling swivel x2

·        WADSN metal NGAL

I may also add a Magpul BAD lever and some rail covers, but for now Romeo Dunn on the purchasing. 

To complete the build I'm going to repurpose a [SIZE=11pt]HAO Geiselle Super Precision scope mount, Vortex Crossfire II 1-4x 24 scope and Element Surefire Scout Light M600. Before I start though, I want to get the gun out, box fresh, and run a few hundred rounds thro[/SIZE][SIZE=11pt]ugh it as is, and measure stock performance, before I start dicking around. [/SIZE]

[SIZE=11pt]edit - Forgot to add that, as great as the HAO suppressor is, don't buy the Hardcore version like I did. Thing weighs a ton. The cheaper Airsoft version would've been a better choice. [/SIZE]

Quickly went out and bought some wet weather gear as it's supposed to be horrendous tomorrow. Surplus Goretex DPM jacket and trousers as I couldn't get MTP. Hopefully the Goretex lining has held up all these years and I don't get soaked through. At least skin is waterproof

Grabbed a US style poncho just in case of showers that don't warrant full wets.
