[British Squaddie Load Out?]

Have a look at Lukey's pics in the loadout thread for a pretty decent Brit Squaddie loadout.

 

Also dont bother with a pistol (P226 or Hi-Power) as your average squaddie wont be issued with one. (More for specialists/ncos/officers etc).

 

Also are you going for temperate or desert loadout? For temperate my advice would be:

 

Mk6/Mk7 Helmet (with DPM cover) http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/combat-helmet-mk-6-/...=item1c1cf7eccc

Boonie http://flecktarn.co.uk/dpcbh0na.html

DPM Shirt and Trousers

Black Combat Boots I think you can find your own link

PLCE Webbing system http://flecktarn.co.uk/dpwws2nx.html

Scrim Neck Scarf or Shemagh

 

Heres a link to the British Army's current equipment brochure. http://www.army.mod.uk/documents/general/2...V12.PDF_web.pdf

 

Hope this helps

Any pics of your work in progress?

Whats the socom gear dd m4 like? i nearly bought one once but got a g&p instead

 

 

Externally it is very good, with loads of options for different set ups and loadouts. Internally, it has decent wiring but the performance is only about average. However, it is reliable and robust and now that the gears, piston, inner barrell and motor have been replaced it does shoot well.

 

In truth I bought it on a whim as I liked the Daniel Defence full metal body so I have not been disappointed. For £300 plus there are definately better guns out there.

Used my M4 at the weekend for the first time in ages, thought I would get a few pics:

 

 

 

 

 

Its a SOCOM Gear Daniel Defence M4A1 which has been reduced to a CQB length and has been heavily Magpul'ed. Its got a HurricanE Eotech 552 and Surefire Scout Light attached.

 

FPS is 320 with 0.2g BBs and it has a full metal body and tightbore barrell fitted.

Ok; here is my KWA B&T MP9 GBB SMG. I took these on the day I got it. Its great for CQB, with a terrific RoF. FPS is 330 with 0.2g BBs at 12 degrees C with Abbey Ultra gas. With Guarder Black gas at room temperature it was pushing out 385!!!!

 

Downside is that the mags cost £40 each

 

Anyway here are the pics:

 

 

 

 

 

As I said before, these are old pics. The Eotech (Clone) is from my M4 but I have put a small Aimpoint T1 Red-dot on it and it is much better (the T1 has a far lower profile). For indoor games I also mount my Surefire Scout Light.

 

The sling is a WAS SF Single Point sling, but I can use the MP9 as a sidearm; and for this I use a Blackhawk Weapons Catch that velcros around the Sight, onto my belt.

 

Hope you like.

Actually no. The mags have two compartments (2500rds each) but the bottom compartment has to be gravity loaded into the top compartment and this is very tricky underfire so I only load the top compartment. The second mag is usually unloaded in my bag as a back up.

 

I was just listing what I had/used with it.

 

Also I forgot to mention how bloody heavy it is. It is by far the heaviest gun I own.

My pride and joy, an ARES Defence Shrike AWS (Advanced Weapon System).

 

 

 

 

 

 

Its a dual-feed (Belt-fed and/or STANAG mag capability), mine is the HurricanE full metal kit fitted onto a CA CQB-R (Only gun I could get my hands on). It has a Prometheus Tight bore barrell and upgraded internals. I have two electric 5,000 rd HurricanE that easily keep up with its 20+ BB per second fire rate. FPS is a decent 320. I mainly use 0.28g BBs in it and because of the TM hop rubber and hop-unit thet fly for miles.....

 

Gun is topped off with an Elcan 3x Scope. (clone 8) )
