Macks airsoft dreamers of the week thread
Smooth_Operator replied to Mack's topic in General Discussion
This advert in the Airsoft section of Freeads tickled me. Not just the price (which if it's genuinely worth, I wish I'd kept my shitty '90 pattern webbing...), but also the fact that it comes with 'Molly poachers' -

Absolutely this. It would be a really simple way to launder money. The mind boggles... -

That's pretty much the reason why I bought it for her. Because it means I can wander round in a Hawaiian shirt with plastic dinosaurs calling myself Wash. ? -
The 'What have you just bought' Thread

My new toy just arrived... A Cybergun FAMAS Evo, which I plan to completely gut and upgrade. My first AEG back in the very early 2000s was a TM Famas, so I'm a bit nostalgic when it comes to these. I was toying on getting a TM instead, but the CG model doesn't have the stupid V.1 gearbox parts that the TM does. Instead it uses a combination of V.3 and V.7 parts, making upgrading it much easier. Initial thoughts: It has a lovely feel to it. Much more sturdy, no creaks (unlike the TM I had all those years ago...) and surprisingly weighty for a polymer body. Once the work gets underway, I'll post up an upgrade thread for anyone that's interested. -

I expect just bought (and fitted) the WETech upgrade lower frame kit and a compensator to my WE G18C. Before: After: Certainly not to everyone's taste, I know, but I absolutely love it. ? -
Load-Out / Loadout Picture topic
Smooth_Operator replied to Nutster's topic in Guns, Gear & Loadouts
Cheers man, that's what I thought. There's loads of MTP and black at the sites I play at, so it's nice to be the odd one out. My other go-to loadout is also something a bit different... German army Tropentarn: -
Load-Out / Loadout Picture topic
Smooth_Operator replied to Nutster's topic in Guns, Gear & Loadouts
These days I'm rocking a US Army UCP Digital Camouflage loadout. I fancied something different and wasn't bothered by having camouflage that's basically useless, so I figured I'd wear the US Army's $5Billion mistake. I stand out like a sore thumb, but I love the look. Haters gonna hate though, eh? The loadout comprises: US Army ACH Helmet, Issued UCP camouflage Cover and Revision Wolfspider Goggles US Army Interceptor OTV protective vest system US Army issue wicking combat shirt US Army issue ACU combat trousers US Army issue knee pads Lowa desert combat boots Mechanix M-Pact gloves The camouflage actually does work quite well against the concrete buildings at my local site, but in grass I may as well wear luminous orange... I'd say the key positive of the loadout is that the US Army put a lot of time, money and effort into making the kit comfortable. So despite the weight of the kit, it feels great to wear and isn't crazy warm either. The sniper in the photos is my Ares Amoeba Striker AS01.

Shoot me a PM if you want any more Tropentarn bits - I've got HEAPS of Bundeswehr issue stuff that I've hoarded and won't ever use. -

A real steel US Army ACH Kevlar helmet. It's a bit OTT for Airsoft, but I absolutely love it. Perfect fit and surprisingly light compared to the Mk6 Kevlar Helmet the TA issued me back in the day... -
The new Alkaline Trio album, "Is this thing cursed?". Used to be a big fan, but just rediscovered them after 6 or 7 years of not listening to them at all.

Absolutely bloody stunning. Great work!

Ran a slightly different loadout today (I tend to go for consistent Flecktarn or Tropentarn and not mix, but the Bundeswehr do it - so I thought "why not?"). It was brutally hot in Dundee today, so I figured this suited the weather! Inspired by some photos I've seen of the KSK in Afghanistan.

Just bought a new GBBR from them on finance. They've been nothing but absolutely brilliant in all respects. I'd recommend them to anyone!

Very nice indeed! Be sure to let us know how it shoots! -
Nothing says "I love you" like letting her use my new favourite scope... ?

I'm particularly partial to the M4 platform... Can't you tell? ?
