Having previously splurged (what feels to me) far too much for a Kydex Customs holster for my toy Glock (£70) And adding a flashlight to the pistol, I needed another holster Looking on their website again a couple of weeks ago, I was kinda shocked that a suitable replacement was gonna empty my wallet of almost another £90! Im not saying they aren’t good, My non light bearing holster is superb, but buying another one pains my budget!! So I had a trawl about Ali Exp and found a good looking substitute for a 1/4 of that cost, but not available wrapped to blend in to my loadout. I sacrificed a pouch that I wasn’t going to use, got my wife’s thread picker out and got set about deconstructing the pouch Next came wrapping the Ali Exp holster using evostick adhesive, then fitted a spare QLS mount to allow me to swap between the two. No problems with the holster, with plenty of room for the higher “Supressor” Iron Sights. I still have to burn the edges with a lighter/candle to clean up the stray threads and stop fraying. I’m Very happy with the result

Hi everyone, I've managed to get the outer barrel off now, there were 8 very small Allen screws around the base of the outer barrel that didn't look like they connected to anything, but as it turns out they were just poking out enough on the other side to hold the barrel in place... I have fixed the rotary wobble, however it still moves up and down. I need to get some longer retention bolts than the stock ones and put a nut on the end of each one as I've cross threaded the female portion retention bolt assembly. Thank you all for your help!!

It's the same company, they've just retooled from WE clones to TM clones. But at $500, you're well into just buy the TM territory.

Probably not enough for me to get in it!

Got a new Cyma supressor for the 553. Just need to modify it and put a tracer inside.

I could be wrong but the URGI rail is MLOK and not KEYMOD. Kyle, if you could let us know the make and modal of the gun or post a better image of the rail so we can identify it.

Been building a m723 and m727 for a good part of the year after buying the suppressors from this forum.. This is the 727 so far and was aimed at being a gordon sniper.. Good pal pointed out wrong mount for the touch.. doh I owned spez's blood diamond 727 back in the day and just copied how he did it..

That is mega mate!

Cheers Bill, yes fair point. I am looking for a bag that can secure it inside though with straps. Hmmm I should have checked Ali. Maybe this will do the job, although there are no internal retaining straps, I could probably sew some onto it. It's 70cm so close enough!

Almost any rucksack would hold an smg

Very helpful of you!

I'll probably be in a bright red jacket following you all around and giving your positions away 😂

In the hope that it might aid mutual recognition, I thought it might be useful to mention what we will be wearing tomorrow; I will be in DPM, carrying a sand coloured gun bag and a flecktarn backpack, and using an MP5 and an overly long 9mm PDW thing.

Not really, although I seldom run it with the ACOG and when I do I use the doctor red dot on the wing mount. I usually run it with a 552 style red dot.

It's the reason I now use a Deadly Customs Universal holster.

That's a fair point. Some of the far Eastern made stuff had some interesting takes. Seen variants coming with Cobra style buckles and loops. If you do go down the route, let us know how you get on with it. Imagine the original Russian stuff is not going to get any easier to obtain with the various Geopolitical developments of the last few years.

I believe the AR308 version with the beavertail should fit (YMMV of course, airsoft tolerances being what they are).

I was indeed. Also the grip had a whole in for the selector spring but in the original grip there are no holes.

2fa shouldn't be an issue and could even work in our favour by garnering more readers and maybe posters once they realise this place is half decent

Cool, I may take a punt then. As far as Syrian rebels go, there's been quite a bit of Russian "activity" in the region for a long time so there's every chance their gear is *ahem* surplus.

How stretchy is it?

Unfortunately I can’t say the say the same for myself. Once I’ve put on all my gear I weigh a lot more 😜

My k8ds have got me a Christmas present. Found, bought and paid for by me!!

Please be wrong elsewhere. x

Picked up a boneyard WE GBBR for something to tinker with over the winter... only to find it wasn't actually broken unless i'm yet to stumble over the real issue. I was told that the nozzle return spring was broke and there 'may be more wrong with it'. The mag has a tiny tiny tiny leak but that likely just needs seals lubing. First attempt at testing it was a dud - it sounded like the hammer dropped but it didnt actually fire. I split the receiver to find a BB was stuck between the hammer and mechanism housing so it was releasing the hammer which then jammed on the BB so it wouldn't shoot. Second attempt at testing worked fine - made it through a whole mag no issue and the bolt held open when empty. I removed the bolt and disassembled it - the stock nozzle spring is totally fine. If anything it's a little weak which could have lead to the incorrect diagnosis(?) so I replaced it with a £10 AngryGun replacement i'd already bought. This spring is a bit twangy so I may go back in and give it a light coating of grease as i've read that's a good way of damping noise. Regardless, I tested it again and it's running totally fine and at the start of the mag it chrono's at 345fps on .20g. Not a big fan of the KAC handguard or the A2 front sight post/gas block setup or the standard stock. Not sure what i'm going to do with it aesthetically - might have to go back through the M4 picture thread and take inspiration from there. Good thing about the way it's made is that the outer barrel is threaded just after the A2 front sight post so I can turn it into a shorter barrel setup really easily.

Should be acceptable enough for airsoft use. The weird thing is that quite a few of the Syrian rebels, making good progress at the moment, are using Smersh webbing. Think they sourced theirs from the Far East rather than Russia.

So for a long time my a&k pkm was my most used gun. I loved it but I hit a point where I desperately needed money to buy stock for my business. And so it was sold. I did miss it a lot and recently things have gotten more stable. Then this lct full steel pkp popped up and here we are. Makes me glad ive been working out. Unfortunately my normal rifle slings are making unhappy noises at me under the 11kg (not including the handguard on it and the optic I will be putting on it) if anyone has a a recommendation for a good padded sling id be happy to hear them as I intend to run this a lot.

One rule for everyone, no exceptions. A member who only comes on the forum to sell stuff should not be given preference over a member who actually engages with the forum but sells infrequently. Single tier, simple.

I love how you expect airsofters to pay attention Have you been to a game day before 😂 I don't trust 90% of airsofters with shoelaces 😂

Makes me wanna go watch "who dares wins", the Lewis Collins film, not the celebrity ponces🤣
