That's good to know, cheers!

Yeah, in hindsight at the price I should have bought two or three more and split my loadouts into a single bag each. The one I've got is instantly a general life upgrade, it's far more practical holiday luggage than my bergen!

Nice little trip to the Midlands Airsoft Fair today. Forgotten how grim Newark Showground smells in the summer... Went without any specific purpose, just out for any bargains. Decent day for it tbf, pretty packed at 10.45 and a chill crowd. Went rummaging through the bargain bins and snagged...

Can confirm - my E&L Krink will eat basically any brand of mag, BUT I almost always have to file the front locking lip on the mag down a little (about a mm at most) on both the front and lower surface. Take your time, go slow, do it with a hand file. Take a bit off, test it, try again. You'll...

Yeah, and lo and behold it turned into exactly that, and converted me being pretty annoyed into me being absolutely steaming. Just bad advice. I think it may be because I'm a known regular that he was trusting? expecting? me to somehow 'handle' the situation by getting into an overshooting match...

Sadly the first bad day of the year for me and H at Skirmish Budby on Sunday. We went down with a view to doing final rig checks and getting ourselves and the guns dialled for the Battlestations Boston 12hr in a couple of weeks, and also because, well, what else are you gonna do on a sunny...

Out at Skirmish Budby last night for the monthly evening/night game. Thunderstorms finally broke the worst of the heat on Tuesday evening, but still a balmy low 20s when we kicked off. Fortunately the trees gave plenty of shade. Rolled up essentially directly from work, so the linen shirt under...

Back at the old stomping grounds (Skirmish Budby) with my buddies M and H, ostensibly running our RusFor kit as a test for the Battle Stations Boston 12hr coming up next month. I nearly went up to Anzio instead, but decided not to try and mess around convincing my lift to change plans the day...

Down at a very sunny Skirmish Budby on Sunday. I'd told myself I wasn't going to play this month (saving the pennies before a quick trip over to Europe next weekend), but the weather was gorgeous and I couldn't resist. Ran my summer RusFor kit to test the KLMK suit, with the trusty E&L AKS-74U...

WIP Summer RusFor this weekend, given the gorgeous weather. Broadly VDV recce/Spetsnaz, South Ossetia 2008, but really built as a generic 'Federation flavoured' kit as the summer version of my Gorka E kit, hence no patches/insignia other than the Tely. Very happy with how this worked in the...

Back at Skirmish Budby after a month off (life got in the way, which was unsporting) with my usual battle buddy and a special guest appearance from an old friend/my tech joining me for the first time ever. The KAC PDW-9 was back after some serious work and upgrades, alongside the E&L AKS-74U...
