  1. Got my MC Warrior DCS to use outdoor, absolutely quality bit of kit. Unfinished, needs a few more patches and pouches, but getting there. Was always sceptical about Warrior kit but certainly worth the money, echo the buy cheap buy twice stuff others say.
  2. Booked in at Warminster on the 4th, quite possibly the 11th too. Looking forward to stretching my legs again after so long out of it.
  3. Bottom ones are ‘similar’ to mine, Bolle do a full seal kit for a number of their glasses though which negates any issue. My combats fit really well on my face, nowhere near enough room for a BB to directly hit my eye from any direction.
  4. I’ve just got myself the Bolle Combat kit which comes with three lenses. So far, so good, wanted something that I could attach directly to helmet which these do, but also I have the option of putting the strap on them if I just want to run with a baseball cap on. I haven’t managed to get them to fog yet, probably famous last words for my first full day skirmish with them on the 4th. Not cheap (not ridiculous either at ~£50) but I always used to play with mesh, now I’m wearing contact lenses I want that extra level of protection that the safety glasses give, without having to run prescription lenses etc. On the topic of lower face pro, give Delta Mike a search on Facebook. Really comfortable snood type face pro, with a metal grate over the mouth (and nose depending how you want to wear it). Lead time is about 4-5 weeks but so breathable and so much more comfortable than any other face pro I’ve worn before.
  5. Anyone else waiting in anticipation to see this new Nov ‘SSG1’ sniper rifle on Tuesday?

      It was slightly cynical anyway, but I have to admit I lolled reading this😂

  6. Welcome! If you’re looking for sites, Warminster is well worth a go.
  7. You’re in a similar predicament to me. I picked up an 8fields chest rig off Patrolbase which seems really decent for the price, but a PC is an itch I want to scratch still. Part of me keeps looking back at a Warrior DCS, it’s not cheap I know but I’m tempted to give it a try and sell on if I dislike it. I quite like the idea of having the choice of what to run on the day rather than be stuck with one single setup and end up getting frustrated for whatever reason.
  8. I got bored waiting for my longer buffer tube to turn up for my Specna C25 PDW to be able to run my Li-ion stick battery in it, then all of a sudden I spotted this SA-E07 come up on the PB boneyard in the quite striking Battleship Grey. Have been buying a few bits off the forum and eBay/Amazon recently ready to buy an E14 2.0 and bolt everything on, but saw this and thought why not. Nuprol PEQ box (also cropped up on the boneyard), Surefire rep tucked in at 45 degrees with a low profile mount, dual pressure pad, Theta XTO holo, Big Dragon QD suppressor and a cheap stock to finish it off nicely. Originally planned to turn this into a Mk18 style build with a black rail, but actually quite like how this sits as it is. Maybe a black dual pressure pad rather than a clear one but that’ll do for now. Voila, my first externally ‘finished’ gun.
  9. I honestly can’t wait for my 303 to turn up.
  10. The chronicles of Parcelfarce continue. Ordered something from Belgium on the 26th, credit to Airsoftshop it was dispatched straight away, went MIA somewhere between Belgium and Coventry until yesterday afternoon...then to make matters worse they’ve now sent it to the wrong delivery depot 120 miles away!

      It will be with you by easter 😉

  11. My second very expensive hobby. Not the most ideal car for woodland airsoft, should probably invest in a runaround that isn’t decked.
  12. I’m by no means the UKARA police or an expert on the subject but I think it’s right it should expire. I didn’t play for 5 years, therefore theoretically lost any right or defence to own a RIF? The time to expire perhaps the subjective point, but on the note of paying, that’s the equivalent to a day’s game fee roughly, which you’d have to do under normal circumstances to renew anyway? Some sites having to cancel site insurance and cost cut with everything going on, so on reflection I guess not a bad time to support sites through this rather shite period. Do I agree that UKARA should be the dominating factor in being able to buy a RIF? Not at all. But it is and it allows us to generally go about our business without too much hassle so I’ll roll over and take the hit.
  13. Sorry to bump an old thread @dykm2. Found the old listing through FB and eBay, what’s the chances of another batch of these? In the same dilemma of not wanting to spend several hundred quid in the event I don’t get on with running around with my Baofeng. If so, how would I get on running my radio either on my belt or at the bottom of my chest rig? Any cable length issues?
  14. Looking at running a 558 holo, anyone run a G33/G43 replica magnifier? Worth the money or not?

      from what i've seen of the elcans the issue isn't eye releif but zero shift between settings, at least for the switchable ones.

      @Adolf HamsterYep, its true. Personally I just set all mine (I have like 6 now haha) on 4x and leave them. Most have MRDs on them if I need to go 1x.

  15. Nail on head. Only issue I have is when it turns into a cockswinging contest. Serving military, ex military or not at all, I don’t need to know how much money you’ve ploughed into your P* or 4 figure set of NVG. End of the day, what we do is all for a bit of fun and to stretch the legs, generally I’ve made more friends out of serving/ex forces than I have taken a disliking to.
