    Not a clue, I'll have to go and look at the photo. I'm about to upload some photos of the osprey to the loadouts section if anyone's interested in going to look. I'd post them here, but I think it's more relevant over there. Put the cummerbunds back on and managed to get 8 rifle mags, 2 pistol mags, admin pouch, medic pouch and rifle sling all on there. It came with ceramic trauma plates in the side pockets of the cummerbund and with all that stuff attached and the plates fitted, it weighs 11kg... I'm going to have to start jogging again just to cope with this thing.

    I think it's called an Osprey ops panel. But I still can't find one for sale anywhere.
  3. Airsoft-Ed
    Yes, yes I am. What are they called?
  4. Airsoft-Ed
    ? There is no zip bit.

    Yeah that's right, just like a big rectangle of molle weave that I can attach to the front of the rig. I would get another set of pouches, but it wouldn't help, 'cos when there are pouches on the front, it's impossible to grip it properly to fasten it tightly enough, which is my main problem. I need to be able to fasten it, then fasten another panel on the front over the fastenings with all my stuff on it. I want it to look something like this: http://www.google.co...gQ9QEwAQ&dur=39

    My Osprey arrived this morning, it fits fine, but attaching stuff to it is basically impossible. It fastens in the middle at the front, so I can't attach anything molle to it that covers the middle section... Since I've got 3x double mag pouches and 1x double mag pouches, I have to have my mags in a 6 and 2 config with more on one side that the other and all the added bulk on both sides makes it impossible to put on and fasten properly... Is there a sort of molle cover I could attach to the front of it or something? Does anyone know what I mean? When I'm not so bogged down with work I'll have to post some photos as reference or something.

      I've finished writing it now, just need to get the references done and then it'll be ready for hand in tomorrow.

       

      But yeah, I've got another 2000 words to write for Monday, which I might be able to get done over tomorrow and Friday, but then I've got 6000 to do for Thursday next week, which I'm not looking forward to... Need to conduct two interviews, learn how to use SPSS, a stats program and all sorts of shit. Think I might just have to "try" so it loo...

      looks like a "valid attempt" then I'll get to resit in August.

       

      If I get the other 2000 word one done before Saturday then I might make it down there. Have to wait and see.

      Good shout, so it is a Mk3. To be fair, I don't thin it is illegal for you to buy it, but for them to sell it is a bit naughty...Oh well, I have a Bergen full of kit I never signed for wedged in the garage at home, there not getting that back in a hurry either!

      Airsoft-Ed

      Considering getting a NVG scope as well... But I'm not sure it can be mounted to the sniper I'm going to be getting. Plus, the cost is slightly off putting...

  10. Airsoft-Ed
    Buggeration. I wonder what made that happen. Couldn't you get it replaced under warranty or something? Since it wasn't your fault it exploded.

    I just bought a mother fudging Osprey MKIV! SOOOOOOOOO pleased right now! Edit: I NEED THOSE LOWAS JUNI0R! They're the last part of my Brit Kit discounting the Mk VII helmet I'll buy once I find one.
  13. Airsoft-Ed

    Happy new year in advance everyone, I'm glad to be part of such an awesome, friendly, helpful community. Take my best wishes into 2013 and good luck in the AF-UK awards! I hope you're running them again, Dev!

    In the battle against Uni work, I am hiking through wind and rain to reach a fancy pub out in the sticks. It's pitch black and freezing, but there's no length I won't go to if my options are - fancy beer hosting establishment in hard to reach place, or - Uni work with dangerously close deadlines.

      I'm still considering joining lol might sign up once I'm through with Uni, whether I be kicked out fairly soon for not being arsed enough to do the work, or once I've finished it. It's certainly on the cards.

      Couldn't tell you, I've never really looked into it.

      Been thinking of joining the TA though, since it's all done in spare time and I have lots of that haha.

    20,000 words to write by the 17th... First deadline on the 7th... Buying the entire Mass Effect trilogy now was blatantly a retarded idea.

      Big Sunday is always the 3rd week of any month on the Sunday, so it'll be the first Sunday after the 20th.

      For UKARA to be sorted they post it off to Action Hobbies for you, then they add it to the system. It only takes a few days at worst, so it's not a long wait.

      cool :) well thats the date i shall try and book to go to then, can i get site membership on the day ? and hows the uni work going ?

    4. Airsoft-Ed

      Airsoft-Ed

      Lol I've still not started it =/ waiting for the library to open up again and then I'm just going to stay there until I've finished everything.

      Well, not everything. But at least not take a break until one entire assignment has bitten the dust.

       

      As for membership, you can pay for it any time you're there, so going on a free day and paying to sign up instead of the usual playing fee is the cheapest way to get it sorted. They might give you it for free anyway be...

  16. Airsoft-Ed
    Really? I prefer the low mounts like the one already on it. I don't like how much the higher ones raise the gun's profile.
  17. Airsoft-Ed
    I like how you took the forward assist out to keep some standard black in there. It looks good. I think if I did it I'd be scared to spray it whilst it was still all together. But I guess you'd have to if you were going for a certain camo look.
  18. Airsoft-Ed
    I approve of the topic veering away from JBBG. Which I now dub, Just Bloody Bollocks Guns.

    New video up in the next 10 minutes. Let me know what you think of my extended commentary:

    I'm still learning the ins and outs of the volume controls, these videos are all practice, so they ought to get better with each one.
  20. Airsoft-Ed
    How does he actually get away with making those videos and putting all that BS on the site? It's actually shameful, he's literally preying on people who don't know any better, marketing at kids who aren't even legally allowed to buy them in the first place, it's disgusting. Did you hear how JBBG pulled out of attending last October's Arms Fair a mere 2 days before the actual event? Haha, I wonder why... That'd be like a chicken attending a Fox's birthday party.

    New video up. Thought I'd try something different this time, so I've done a voice commentary. I've still got a lot to tweak to get the sound and stuff right, but let me know what you think:

      Liam1992

      Really good quality video camera is that. Is that Sling an issue one? Not sure what were issued these days, I know mine is a Green one, pick them up on ebay for a few quid and they sure as hell don't drop your weapon on the ground like that!

  23. Airsoft-Ed

    If I wrote a blog. Would anyone read it?

      It'd be a bit of everything really. Mostly about my day to day observations. I tend to aim for laughter with most of the things I say or post around the place, apart from on here and YouTube, most of the time anyway.

      But if I did a blog it'd be day to day stuff, funny things I notice, discussions with myself about whatever comes to mind when I'm bored and I imagine a large chunk would be airsoft related, since airsoft is more or less becoming my entire life.

      Well I was captivated enough to read that wall of text so... go for it!!

       

      I would do similar, but most of it would be filled with silly ideas, inventions and a well updated "Celebrity Drop-Dead List".

      Yeah I'd read it Ed, I always find your posts interesting/helpful :)

  25. Airsoft-Ed

    Have chronic C.B.A today... Want a coffee but there's no milk, so need to go to the shop, washing needs doing, pots need cleaning, house needs tidying, cat needs murdering, Poinsettia needs replacing... Guh.
