My SAS M16/M203 is now done. Still waiting on side mounted m203 sight which is currently in the post. But it boasts; * accurate trades * C7 upper * STEEL barrel/front sight/flash hider * STEEL small parts, mag catch/selector etc. Just need to decide whether to leave as is, do a jungle stripe or GW1 look.

Gutted to hear about no mesh. A 'shatter' (when it does actually happen) is like walking into a cobweb. Agree with heroshark - full seal mesh better then glasses, easily.

In 17 years even with shit mesh I'm yet to come across a single in game incident where anyone has received any serious or lasting eye damage from a bb breaking on mesh. I've personally had bits go in my eye on over 10 occasions now in those years and continue to wear it based on my personal experience. If they are gonna throw mesh under the bus they better ban non-sealed eye pro too. There has been countless well detailed in game incidents where people have received permanent sight damage due to whole bbs getting in eye pro. Which is even worse when it happens in close quarters, I've seen it happen. 2 people I know have limited sight in one eye because of it . I don't think anyone should be dictated to whether it be mesh or non-sealed eye-pro.

Just had a picture back from FMJ with the cerakote work I hired them to do on an LM4 I started customising years ago. It'll frankly be a relief to finally finish this build off.

Something a little different but turned out really well.

Likewise, I always carry some decent mesh eye pro on me for game days, my only very small criticism of mesh is obviously vision is a smudge more limited, partly through light transmission but mainly because at 51, I now need glasses for close up such as reading fine print, the downside to this is anything "solid" in front of the eyes, even fine mesh, can cause focus issues for me. so if I'm indoors in semi dark environments, it's clear or yellow glasses, but with the mesh in my pouch in case misting gets silly, & woodland sites my mesh as my primary eyepro with glasses as back up. never had anything get past the mesh though, & ive been hit in them more times than I care to admit to 😏

Yeah but it was nothing didn't really pierce and caused less damage than a windy day at the beach. Yes the bb shattered but slowed down so it caused no real damage. All players who wear it know the slight risks and sign a waiver so personal choice is where it should be. Worst eye injury I ever saw was a guy whacking into a wall and his glasses frame split above his eye but you cant ban glasses frames either.

Funny I have played airsoft for years primarily cqb and have never seen or heard of anyone getting seriously injured because of wearing mesh eyepro. I would actually trust a pair of heroshark glasses far more than the cheap china eyepro worn by half the community.

A bit flimsy feeling to be honest. Reviews have said that the frames are rated less then the lens. We shall see. I doubt the bit where I drilled will break though. More likely elsewhere. I only know of two sites that required full seal goggles so I didn't want to spend that much on places I will likely go just once to review and not return.

Mil sim Mario patch.

Excellent! New site that is not power cut 😃

Just got word that we will be opening late September / Early October. If only the council wernt so slow!, Sorry the website isnt up we had the power cut for some of yesterday and it stopped our progress!

Latest member of the glock family, a bitsa build of stuff I had in the parts bucket and a cheap donor gun.

So today I got a new sight for my ics cxp ape. The first pic is with the old sight that I didn’t really like. The second is with the spike short dot I got to try and give it a better ‘style’ it’s also a clearer sight picture with the option of magnification etc as a bonus. Apologies for the crappy duvet/bed pics. Weathers not fantastic here at the moment. So no option for more arty farty ones
