@PopRocket123 - Out of curiosity which KWC is that? It it CO2 powered? I've become a massive fan of my 1911's since picking up my Mauri Series '70 and I got to considering a CO2 pistol in lieu of the cooler weather due to people contesting hits from my Marui pistols (not just my 1911). Admittedly this is more of a player issue than anything else.

@paradoxum which shotgun is that and where did you pick it up from? It's more or less one of the shotgun designs I was looking for.

@Helbi - Did you make the LLM-vr Replica or were you able to buy one from a seller? I've been after one for a little while now. Some excellent photo's and great work on all the kits.

Would it be fair to assume both can be dumped to reveal a standard P90? If so I must admit, that's mighty tempting.

Ordered up a few Magpul 5.56 mag assists, a HSGI sling attachment loop thing (can't recall the name) and a few consumables for cleaning up my pistols. Currently looking for a red dot that'll keep a zero but not sure what I'm looking for. I was considering an RMR but don't know if there are any good clones or if it would pair up well with the top of a SCAR.

@sonofsammo - Might be the shape of things to come with the LCT pricing as time goes on. Unfortunately Nuprol have taken over distribution for Europe and the UK some time ago to LCT and ever since stock has been hard to come by. At least from conversations I've had with retailers. The price is a complete farce nonetheless.

@Tackle - Unfortunately there's no shortage of chancers and rip off merchants in airsoft, just like in many walks of life.

I've ordered up a couple of Tasmanian Tiger triple magazine pouches in Pencott Green Zone, a replacement Thermos mug for my all important first brew of the day and I've also placed an order for a smooth top cover for my AKS-74N. I need to track down a few more pieces of Pencott GZ but it's out of stock in a lot of places, fortunately I'm not in a great hurry.

I must admit, I tried a GHK one thinking that it would a safe bet... Marui 1 : 0 GHK 😂

@bapexxx - Cheers for the heads up, to be honest I was hoping to get my hands on one in time to install it before Saturday but this maybe wishful thinking, haha. I'll definitely look up their website as I believe RA-Tech do a couple accessories/parts I was interested in.

@DopeYourScope - No idea unfortunately, I'm going off of descriptions. I'll have to see if I can find more on RA-Tech's site (if I can find it). Hopefully I can find a retailer with the NPAS available in the UK. On a side note thank you to the chaps who responded to my queries regarding MWS viability and milsim events, as a result I'm going to keep it and run it. Admittedly I was very torn on the prospect of selling it so now I'm looking forward to exploring the platform to a much more extensive degree.

I was looking at putting in an order for an NPAS and I just wanted to clarify something. When I was looking I spotted ones which are supposedly for the MWS and WE GBBR's but I've also seen ones advertised as specific MWS versions. Are they both the same or does the MWS need a specific one? Apologies if this has already been touched upon.

@RossF - My main concern is in relation to how much extra you're adding to carry weight/extra encumbrance from the added weight of carrying sufficient gas to survive the course of a full event. I understand that a fair amount of kit is required for the longer events but I was concerned about the added weight/loss of space. On reflection it's perhaps a bit daft but I was looking at it from the perspective of "with an AEG I only need BB's" whereas with a GBBR I'll need plenty of gas and BB's to ensure I've got enough for the duration. @Wo1f - Appreciate the heads up and advice, to be honest cold shouldn't be an issue as the cold would likely aggravate other issues so it would only be events during warmer months. @DopeYourScope - To be honest the issue isn't any sensation or feeling of being outgunned but it's good to hear the feedback in relation to GBBR performance at these events. It's also encouraging to hear about their longevity in the field too. I can't say I'm a particularly trigger happy player, I'd much rather use one shot as opposed to many. @Shizbazki - I can't say I've ever really looked at the MWS as a full auto spray and pray kind of gun but I imagine there must be some out there who do, haha. Out of curiosity how many mag's do you run for longer events?

@DopeYourScope - Thank you for the heads up, your perspective on it is very helpful. Admittedly I'm considering getting shut of mine for an NGRS as it seems more practical for Milsim type events but I'm conflicted on the matter.

Just out of curiosity what are people's views on the MWS and it's viability for milsim events? Can anyone offer any general advice or insight on running one for such events?

@Uncle Pauly - It's my understanding that these fit and function fine, the casing just has a slightly different design: Type 89 Marui GBBR Magazine. I believe the shell on the type-89 magazine has marks on one side denoting the amount of rounds left, it's non-functional in airsoft terms (to the best of my knowledge) but it's an alternative option. The chaps at Camoraids should be able to confirm compatibility and how many they have in-stock.

@emilianoksa - I've got a Series '70 (I believe the internals are slightly different to the original) but it's a cracking gun. As for shots, I can't say how many I get in a mag but I've not had an issue going through every loaded round. I usually stop approximately 4 BB's from maximum to avoid unnecessary wear on the spring.

@emilianoksa - The TM 1911's (I think it's all of them but not 100%) have a weight within the grip plates on each side. The inside of the grip plate has been carved out to allow the weighted plates to fit without compromising other parts of the pistol. Part of the subframe is metal too but I don't know how much this adds.

Complete brain fart on that one 😂

Mac 10's priced at £110.00 per unit. I'm not completely sure if this belongs here but given these can be found on average for £120 - £130 the price seems a little steep. Especially when you consider the fact that it isn't even confirmed if the magazine(s) are gas tight and if the guns work as they should.
