another Aliexpress bit of kit turned up. They do 3 different logo's TTI, M9A4 or in my case SIG. For £14 plus shipping it's a pretty good deal. Quality is fine and the foam comes pre-cut. https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005008805937151.html?spm=a2g0o.order_list.order_list_main.5.a5691802BlTRWM

One is more refined that that. I've going to take them to the tailor in town and get him to make them fit my short arse.

Sizing is bang on which is a shame as I got 34L and I actually need 34S.

latest Crye knock off's with Crye logo's on the outside. Works out at £49 a pair shipped from Aliexpress.

Interestingly, or not, the first SLR I was issued was a mixture of polymer and wood.

I've got a Real Sword Type 56 here and the new Akriva GBB Type 56's look very much like Real Sword externals. Wonder if that is the case?

well since they seem to be getting progressively bigger... (TM NGRS 417 modded to A2 - minus the ambi-everything)

variations on a theme. different configurations of the Tm HK416C. 2 are mine and one is a mates.

No issues so far. I did increase the length of the slide by 1 mm to reduce the impact on the front end which seems to have helped.

I printed the slide horizontally to give the most strength with the supports done as organic which leaves the least mess. I'm not skilled enough yet for CNCing something this complex but maybe in the future, who knows.

it's heavy, but if a nuclear bomb goes off, I'm climbing inside it as it's rock solid. It comes with a bunch of organisers as well and they are pretty handy. It's also worth mentioning that everything seems very well made.

fusion is better for organic shapes whereas Sketchup is more architecture focused but can do complex curves with a bit of f;ing around. I started out years ago using sketchup hence the preference to use it sometimes but fusion is good, just takes blooming ages to master and I'm no master at...

Normally I'd agree but in the FNX it's a weird one. They knew that the slide would be stressed enough on 134 that they added a metal plate to counter the effect and I'd imagine that even on 134 some will break over prolonged use, which is unusual for TM. I've went old skool and I'm using...
