The 'What have you just bought' Thread

Had a few deliveries today, here's a before & after...

Cheap stock is a bit wobbly but waiting for one from our classifieds, LPVO is a temp fixture until a reasonably priced clone 'Optics suite L900A1' arrives on the market (planning on it going on my Ugr-i eventually). A similar reason for the Mawl-1, it'll be relaced by an LLM3 once a decent 3D printed or clone is available.

After all that... the Magpul foregrip is pucka.

Was the Magpul set easy to fit? My gas tube is not wanting to shift and I don't want to force it

Had to do some filing to where the guard goes into the receiver but it went on fine after some fettling.

I had to be a bit firm with the gas tube as its in quite tight but it will move given enough force

I bought this rather nice CYMA MP5 SD6 from @Petford25 through the classifieds here; it will go through all my usual upgrades, including fitting an SEF lower.

A rather easy transition to an MP5SD2, apart from having to butcher the new gearbox to allow the charging handle to work.

XT 6.03mm barrel
Maple Leaf Macaron and Omega nub
CHiLUN ETU as it was already in a spare quick change gearbox
SHS High torque motor
Trigger shimmed to reduce pull length

Having a morning playing around with toys.

1st purchased a couple of weeks ago, WE Apache MP5K. Lovely gun, spotless condition came with 5 mags to give me enough to field a whole game (with the other 3 I already have). Local site have opened an indoor CQB and I think this is the coolest way to play the game.  I have added an e-shooter tracer unit for the full laser beam effect

2nd Completed the DMR upgrade to the LCT G3, maple leaf 6.02 510mm stainless barrel, 4uantum hop rubber and nub and m130 spring. Shooting 1.88J on .36 BB’s like a laser. Had the selector modified to only shoot semi.  After a couple of games it decided to shoot only full auto? Modified the trigger contacts as it was arcing giving the full auto then it decided not to fire at all. Now fitted a e shooter mosfet to solve those problems and now it’s shooting very well with a very short trigger pull. 
 

Modernised with the LCT m lok handguard and an unknown fore grip from the box of parts, trying to make this monster easier to handle, might look at adding a small bipod to the front but not convinced it will get used and just add weight? Any thoughts?

3rd WE Apache MP5, modernised with a Cyma m lok handguard to keep it looking like the G3.  Had to modify it with a hacksaw to make it fit, like the look and it gives me options for torches and tracers for CQB or fore grips for woodland.

WE L85A2 GBBR from Surplus Store.

Wanted the WE GBBR as...

1. wanted a proper A2 as most of my SA80's were springers.

2. wanted the WE as I have plenty mags for it so no further expence. (got some from the classifieds for my XM177 ages ago)

What do they shoot like?  After falling in love with my WE Apache MP5(s) I feel I need more GBB in my life and there have been a few used WE L85's roll through the classifieds which have been very tempting.

 
I've literally just got it and only dry fired it, got a nice kick & bloody heavy.

That's as detailed a review I can give so far.

Thanks mate, sorry assumed the others on the wall were also WE L85's as you already had the mags. 

Interested to hear how you get on with it!!

If you like SCARs the VFC ones are really nice. I have a SCAR-H and a MK20 SSR and they're such nice guns with good kick and noise.

After abstaining for a while i've bought a couple more NGRS 416s.

Another 416 Delta that might stay mostly stock or might get a different handguard in time. We'll see..

Then a 416c, which i've wanted for a long time with a project in mind.

And a Geissele short handguard to go on it.
