    Gun picture thread

    Some of the random stuff I've gotten my hands on lately, kind of. Waiting on a couple still. The only one I've committed to keeping is the shotgun

  4. Good morning good sirs, Now that I’ve sated myself for now with Hi-Capas, it’s time to have a closer look at something I started last year. I wanted a DMR, people had started bringing semi-auto 450fps stuff to the field and I wanted something that actually felt and looked as if it could justify that role. The final straw was when chronoing in at Finmere, a new face boldly stated that his short-barrelled M4 derivative with an enormous scope was a DeE EmM ArRrR. That night I bought a Cyma M14 as a base. Internally it’s all sorted. A few key internal switcharoos and a bit of TLC has given a stable output of c.435 with hop set for 0.4’s. The stock hides a Gate mosfet, the selector plate has been removed so the cut off lever cannot be lifted. The hop unit has been switched out for a TM, rubber and nub with the obligatory Maple leaf. I replaced the feed springs in some Cyma mid caps to make sure I had reliable, rattle-free mags and that’s the boring bit out of the way. Externally is where I want a few pointers. Ive already replaced the Cyma stock with a Wooden jobby. The original finish was ‘orrid so it’s been sanded, stained and sealed with OSMO, a beeswax based finish. I’ve stuck a RIS top cover on there and a nice Hawke 3-9x50AO scope on there. Here’s where the question lies. What to do to next. Ive gotten in touch with a local engraver to get some trademarks on the receiver. The Cyma has a printed serial number on the receiver but no actual trades, that’s got to change. I think I’ve settled on Winchester trades, a peculiar and scarce manufacturing run of RS M14’s. I’ve popped a picture of the markings. If anyone knows of anything even more obscure, I’m open to suggestions. The other area that I need a hand with is finish. The Cyma paint is crap and there are seam lines on almost all of the cast metal bits. I’ll be doing some sanding and finishing before it all goes over to Mark at FMJUK for a Cerakote finish. I’m hovering over E110 Midnight to try and get that parkerised look. Am I looking at totally the wrong colour? Will I just end up with a blue M14? I’m really hesitant to just go with Graphite Black as I want a bit of flair. What’s the opinion on best Cerakote for a M14? These threads are useless without pictures so I’ll make sure to take some when I’m back in work on Monday Ali

    Afuk Meet up 3.0

    Certainly is. At least the vaccinations have begun. Saw a friend drop her mother off for her jab earlier today and it struck me as a bit of a “light at the end of the tunnel” moment. Fingers crossed chaps, still looking forwards to meeting you... and then shooting at you

  9. Hi. It's the same like Well mb06, Nuprol tango t96. To find parts for this platform is difficult and pricey. Best bet is: https://airsoftpro.cz/en/gun-parts-upgrade/sniper-rifles-parts/for-well-mb06-13 Advice - change cylinder, upgrade spring and piston, change hop-up unit, install beter barel and you will get good FPS and about 70m. range. Best luck with it.

British Tactical double mag pouches x3, British tactical OMG open mag pouches x2. FMC Airframe with Urtactical cover and battery pouch in ranger green. PIG FDT gloves.

  11. Saw a pic of an mp5k with an mp5 sliding stock a long while ago and really liked the look. This is still a wip but it all fits and works. A lot of grinding and sanding.

  12. i wanna say it's as simple as the contacts are engaging before the trolley is far enough forward to get caught by the cutoff lever.

    Everyone’s work looks awesome!! Loads of details going on. I built my first 1/12 kit a few months ago. And have a few 1/18 models

  15. Loving my new holster setup, Kydex Customs mid drop, KC basic holster, DIY thigh strap. Access/pistol grip to draw is awesome, no flapping around even with full steel pistol, no chaffing from strap, and you can sit down without knowing there’s a pistol. Im sure many others have been and done this before, but to those who haven’t it’s a great setup.
