A light facing down your trouser leg!? I suppose it's alright if you need a place to store a light or an optic etc. but still it's bloody weird!

I can beat that - I got a real steel XDM compact holster which has a weaver rail on it! Who the hell needs a weaver rail on a holster!?

I think it's worth pointing out that the paint job on that rifle has probably seen 15 game days since I got it and not a single problem - as i said, this was a VERY WET day, and the paint has worn away only where my also INCREDIBLY WET glove was rubbing against the keymod rail. Taking nothing away from the quality of Chris' work, I can't imagine anyone else could have done a better job.

Hi Chris, Just letting you know: You did a custom job on a Krytac CRB for me a few months ago and it's great - I played a VERY WET game in the rain last week though and some of the paint job flaked away where my glove was holding the RIS. This isn't a complaint as such because it makes it look good IMO being a bit worn - however, I've sprayed a layer of clear lacquer over the remaining paint and it seems to have sealed it in much better, so if anyone else experiences the same problem, just do that.

Sent some Krytac parts off for a fairly straight-forward paint job, really excited to get them back and will post results when I've re-assembled the rifle. VERY impressed with the other stuff you've done!

I spoke with a few people about this, "Soon" isn't soon enough for my personal desires

It's in the freakin' post then.

A mate of mine just got an SPR and it's AMAZING. I'm going to order either an SPR or a CRB today... if there's no difference in the internals etc. and the CRB is just a bit shorter, I'll get that. Unless one of you lovely people can persuade me otherwise.....?

If that's around your budget, then G&G M4s and Cyma AKs are your friend in my experience. I'm guessing you don't have UKARA, and so purchasing from shops like TiwanGun is a no go...?

Up your budget to £300 and get a Krytac SPR or CRB. Seriously. *Edit* - wow, I posted that without even seeing the comment above from snakeEyes75

It doesn't stop it, but you get less. Once the string is pulled a few times and the mag is fully wound, every single BB in the mag can be shot before more winds are required, I guess it lines them up or something better than the gear ones do. I haven't noticed any rattle from the mag once wound... That said, unwound mags in my chest rig rattle like a b!tch.

^ There's a lot less rattle from a flash mag too (you'll never get zero rattle unless you switch to 9mm's though)

It's preference, one thing I'd say though is that if you like hi caps, before you get too attached to the spinny wheel things on the bottom, get a flash mag or two (google it) - they're the future, but some players still seem skeptical.

Sweeeeeet
