It's pretty, though I think totally impractical if not in a proper desert even just from the point it'll get covered in stains super easy. Also weirdly common compared to some stuff which is surprising. Late 90s USMC experimental trial pattern called Urban MOUT (sometimes T-Patt or T-Block) - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Urban_Warrior

Radios arrived today. Quickly tried the throat mic out. Can confirm works great! Very happy!

Largely working on the AC/Gen 2 part of my little Crye collection, also jumped on the total liquidation of the Magpul clothing line; plus other bits n' pieces as per.

Just an interesting spin on the evo I am purchasing was talking to jdairsoft team about getting it a bit cheaper from them and they gave solid advice in their reply. I already knew this as I had done my research but it's nice to see unprompted advice coming out of a retailer to help with battery decisions.

Just put that down to the usual excuse "Fucking airsofters" Most shop staff fit into that category still so it works. Yeah, so much of airsoft is still stuck in 1999. Nothing really advances quickly.

Is that also not down to manufacturers and shops alike that either say or offer those batteries as part of the package/instructions for use?

Yea they’ve had a bit of a Weston with that. Just seems odd though as I bought almost exactly the same gun from the same shop about 10 months ago and was told 11.1 only 🤷🏻‍♂️

New iron sights!

Australian Infantry kit. Around 2004-2008 Platatac giggle hat, DPCU land125 cut uniform, Issue Terra boots, Issue Body Armour, Issue Land125 vest and 40mm dropleg, Rabintex 303 helmet with cover, tag IR and NSeas mount, Ess ice glasses, JG Aug with Elcan, custom made scope rail nurprol 203 and GB Tec 203 mount.

Nothing quite says how well a gun performs than when you hand it to people throughout the game day to have a play with and they all say “how?” When the see how far the BB goes. i ran out of ammo I had that much of a target rich environment and I was just too high and far away that nobody on the opposite team could hit me. Figured it take a little picture of the godly thing.

They’re meant to use 11.1

generally a beret without a cap badge is fine to most ex-service personnel, the only exception sometimes is if its of a colour specific to only one regiment, maroon para beret being a good example, then sometimes people still get shirty. BUT the downside to a plain beret is it usually looks shite, & you end up looking like the lovechild of Frank Spencer & Citizen Smith (ask you parents who they were 😏). As for snoods etc, they will always add to problems with misting up, better to go with a mesh faceguard of some kind, allows condensing breath to dissipate.

I've finally cracked and bought a GBB pistol for haptic larks. In best tight Scotchman style, it's the cheapest one that I could find, the Army Armament R17-A not-a-Glock, blessed as sort-of-OK-ish by Jebus Himself: The giggle is that I've done what we all know not to do, and ordered it from... bbguns4less. Because why? Because cheapness. (£60 + 2 x £21 WE mags) - the 7% discount code you get from leaving it in your basket for 24 hours + free postage = <£95 delivered. My rule of thumb is that anything under 3 figures is disposable, and PayPal means that if it turns up pre-licked by Sweaty Dom or explodes during the first garage plinking session, then a dispute goes in, and back it goes. Famous last words: how badly can they mess up a simple order?

The American healthcare system

"Loadouts: British MTP (all genuine british issue including vest exc knee pads)" You can get issue Revision eye pro that will stop IED frag for £20 on eBay, then you'd not have this concern. Much better some fogging than shot in the eye. You can get all sorts of anti-fogs and aftermarket fan kits. FMA is not a brand from which to be buying the one and only utterly crucial piece of protective equipment needed in airsoft. The double irony is that what you've bought is a chinese knock-off of Revision goggles and they cost the same as the real ones that don't have the fans. Not in a million years would I trust that stuff to protect my eyesight and neither should anyone else. Not trying to come across harsh here but this is one subject where the facts need to be stated very very clearly and where I will not compromise.
