PMR radios work in the 446Mhz range. Lambda length for 446Mhz is around 62cm however an antenna can be 1/4 lambda so around 15/16cm would work in theory. That's for the TX side for the receive side the longer the better is my experience (I once managed to talk to a ship anchored in Cyprus from Brize using the worlds longest slopping V HF antenna which was a bit of a surprise.). The TX/RX will probably be shit to be honest as you are working with 0.5W output power so the range is always going to be a bit pants. factor in the site you play at having trees, buildings, etc then the range will drop significantly. Thinking into it a bit more the best chance would be to thread 16cm lengths up and down and across the full molle on a chestrig would in theory give you multiple 16cm antennas which might work better.

bit of a work in progress. Fitting LED's and laser to the TM Curve pistol. LED's work but the laser is giving me grief. Need to redesign the push button as the grey one on there now was just to get things working.

True. It's up on wolf Armouries for £550 but isn't planned to be in stock until Q1 2023 for those with patience.

MP5SD6 up for sale on impulse101 now. With EMS shipping it works out at around £550

£200 for a couple of x-poice red-dots. Externally a bit beaten up but the optics are crystal clear and the red-dot's are fully working. oh and I ordered on the 12th and they arrived on the 14th (very well packaged I may add).

could be the brushless motor. Chances are Ares used a cheap Mosfet that isn't designed for brushless motors. there's some interesting data here on mosfets and brushless motors. https://www.electronicspecifier.com/industries/industrial/how-to-drive-bldc-motors-effectively-with-mosfet-tech

talk to Frank at fire-support. he can order from TM but it won't be quick (usual TM slowness)

not a bad idea.

Battery extender for KWA sliding stocks.

The handheld thermals are ok for searching but not really suitable for airsoft unless you want to walk around with a pistol in one hand and the imager in the other. Here's my UNI-T I use for electronic repair viewing my dogs in the garden. These cost around 220 quid from aliexpress. I've also got a Leupold LTO and I modified it to work more as a close range scope and is ideal for airsoft. There is a knock off version on aliexpress for around 450 quid and it actually has a higher resolution sensor than the LTO and it has an adjustable cross hair as well. link for anyone interested in it. https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005004799373798.html?spm=a2g0o.productlist.0.0.3b395cf7qZemN5&algo_pvid=d7feabd9-3d95-485e-9b63-76577f5916e2&algo_exp_id=d7feabd9-3d95-485e-9b63-76577f5916e2-1&pdp_ext_f={"sku_id"%3A"12000030529096690"}&pdp_npi=2%40dis!GBP!649.15!454.41!!!!!%400b0a01f816656009065817414e980f!12000030529096690!sea&curPageLogUid=UovvyxjEY0h6

Any love for 308's?

Hi, looking for someone or a company that does custom gear. I want a velcro backed UMP mag holder, using the elastic material (similar to blueforcegear pouches) to hold 4 UMP style magazines in a Horizontal orientation instead of the classic vertical orientation of a normal mag pouch. Any recommendations on who can do this?

Ares and Star SLR's. Star on the top with gunmetal fake bolt and about 15mm longer than the Ares version.

Nice review. I've picked one of these up and thankfully the internals are the same great stuff in the M9XX series. I first thought it was a made up replica by Double Eagle but it turns out it's actually based on a real firearm http://www.imfdb.org/wiki/LWRC_SMG-45 it's also good to see a whole bunch of rails, screws, a different mag release and the battery adapter in the box as well.

probably 350-400 depending on finding the right person. it's got a few mags so is skirmishable but due to it being like rocking horse poop most likely going to be bought by a collector.

did the hop creep after the 3 mag dumps? sounds like it did. Try resetting the hop or alternatively wind the hop completely off as this should allow you to empty a magazine without issue and will show if the issue is mag feed, nozzle or hop unit/rubber related. If you can empty magazines with the hop off then the nozzle and magazine are probably fine. You can also do a quick check on the nozzle by having a look inside the hop unit and firing the AEG. You should see the nozzle move back and forward with every shot (obviously without a mag inside and the AEG turned upside down). It would probably be best to strip the hop unit out and rebuild if the nozzle and magazines are fine. If it's under warranty then send it back for the shop to do it.

Well I wanted to see if the LCT AK19 grip would fit on an Acrturus AK12. The good news is that it does but the bad news is that it's a pig of a job quite frankly. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone else to try.
