The 'What have you just bought' Thread

Bolle just updated the X1000s so bought a new set of these to see whats changed, also managed to get the prescription insert which will make them even better :).

Nothing too exciting, but I was trying to work out how to use my fancy Magpul MS4 sling with my Tanaka AICS (as I want to use a good quality sling on it!). One option was paracord to then loop the sling into, but then I saw these: TM L96 QD sling adapters. Ordered a set from HK and they fit wonderfully, meaning I can now just quickly swap my MS4 sling from my M40A5 over to my AICS in a matter of seconds (as the M40 stock has QD mounts as well)

Some strange helmet pads. They seem to be a somewhat a copy of the HHV pads. Hoping they work, as they should help a lot with cooling. Posting on the off chance someone has them and would care to share what they are like. Any ideas to stop spiders nesting in my helmet if I end up using them? :)

Let us know what they're like. I sweat like a paedophile in Mothercare when I wear a helmet so anything to make life better is good!

I almost always use guns with MEDs, be it bolt actions or DMRs. Therefore I have a lot of really nicely upgraded pistols, because I use them a lot. I also like having a light and a suppressor on them, light for function, suppressor for tacticool-ness.

It has taken me this long to finally buy a good holster, but god damn do I like it and I should've done this a long time ago. It's a Deadly Customs DC5 universal light bearing and tracer holster with an m81 woodland cordura wrap, plus both a mid-ride mount and a molle mount with quick locking systems. All in, it was about £125, but worth every penny.

I run real-steel Surefire x300s on my pistols and the retention is a lot better than on the Nuprol NX300 that lives on my HK45 (that I don't really use much); HK45 with the Nuprol light fell out when I turned it upside down and gave it a shake, but when I put the Surefire on it, it stayed locked in. Holster fits all of my pistols that I tend to use and none of them are falling out with the real Surefire x300 on them, apart from the mk23 which is just too large. 1911 is quite tight as well because the slide is high, but it does fit. So that's the Hi-Capa 5.1, AAP, 1911 and p226 that all fit, as well as the HK45. All with suppressors on as well, and the AAP also has an RMR.

Glad I picked up an extra quick locking system and a molle mount, because it means I can just swap it over to a different kit, or mount it on a chest rig so I can use a GBB pistol on a chest rig as a cross-draw, and the mk23 on my DTD holster on my hip if I want both stealth and a bit of firepower.

Such a good investment.

Just bought one of these based on this post - was looking for a universal light bearing holster and this combined with the ex-police x300's from ebay seems like a good fit
