Apart from the fact that the XM8 is to gun design what the Millennium Dome is to architecture, SRC G36's are good (apart from the hop rubber).

Yeah I'm ordering a 7.4v 25c LiPo w/mini tamiya connector and charger from componentshop soon, should fit inside the Ris.

AHHHHHHH!! My eyes!!! I was just sick in my mouth! Warn a guy when you put something that hideous up, no wonder its £99!

Grab a Lipo? Plenty of those that'll fit inside a KAC RAS replica without breaking a sweat. No jury rigging required, no fake PEQ box or anything else like that. If you've got to make do with what you have that's absolutely fine don't get me wrong, but NiCd & NiMh are the battery equivalent of a VHS tape.

Just checked on the WW2 airsoft forums and it's not an airbourne helmet, its royal armoured corps. Same outer shell though so not a problem

Here a picture of Widecard's, ZuluSix, TM Recoil SCAR-H To see more up and coming pictures of the team's it check out the FTZ Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/fireteamzuluairsoft

i actually like em like...

It's worth getting some deans connectors and swapping out the tamiyas too.

If you'd been with us at Humber Airsoft on Sunday you wouldn't dismiss knee pads so lightly, Nick. 'Kin brutal! It's a limestone quarry overgrown with pretty much just 3 plants - thorn bushes, wild roses, and moss... a nice mix of stones, big stabby thorns, small splintery thorns, and sponged up chalky water just waiting for you to squelch down into your best sniper position on... You could maybe go with a canvas satchel, a gas mask one, or just something that could have been used to carry explosives, etc., as a dump pouch - then you wouldn't need to keep track of which mags in your pouches were empty, you wouldn't have to look at them to check numbers, and you wouldn't have to fiddle with getting empties back in the pouch, so they speed up reloads. Looking good, Russ! Looking very good!

Black cable ties might help in the meantime, Tac.

So having tested the loadout in the field: Knee and elbow pads: Can't wear them over clothing as it will look wrong, my current pads are just not comfortable worn underneath. I may have to think of a better solution Sten: Frickin awesome at mowing down groups of enemy as they advance, may try some heavier ammo next time to get a bit more range and punch through foliage (was using .25's). Battery useage is high, I have a hunch that the Burst wizard may be sucking up battery power so may ditch it for outdoors. Ammo pouches\mags: May have to sew in dividers so that mags can be kept organised to determine which are full/empty, or may just number them on the ends. May have to get more mags as when the shit hits the fan and serious suppression fire is needed, 6 mags really don't last long. Comfort: Denim battledress is really comfortable. Denison smock is great for when it rains. Pocket space is a bit on the ridiculous side, hard part was remembering what was in each pocket. The fact that a MK23 Socom fits completely in an inside pocket of the denison (silencer off) says a lot. Overall weight of the gear is rather high, it gives a good workout but it's not uncomfortable. Oh and on another note, I have a Steel helmet for my loadout due to arrive Wed/Thurs A bit more weight but who cares, its a frickin WW2 airbourne helmet
