Just shoot Andy a message on Facebook (Tacbelts UK) or Instagram (@tacbelts_uk) and I'm sure he'd be happy to oblige should the feeling take you.

A lovely MP5 AVS placard put together for me by Andy at TacBelts, and finally took the plunge the on 3AC Cobra kit for the FCPC. So far, so good.

Seems like some very peculiar logic to selectively apply. I agree it's overpriced from the objective stand point of what they cost new. I'm not too arsed about partaking in a conversation on the subjective elements.

Impulse101 continues to put most retailers to shame, Japan to my door in 4 days.

Ignore influencers.

Looks like it screws off, just make sure you're turning it the right way. Video here of it being put on and taken off (should start at 3:18).

Certainly not an expert but whenever this has been the case for me I’ve trimmed it if the C clip won’t engage properly, leaving the hop unit not secured into place with the barrel. If the C clip still fully clips in there isn’t really any reason to though.

Much appreciated, truth be told it doesn't look as shit as I was expecting it to either. Certainly food for thought, alongside figuring out what would go if I make the leap. Can't be breaking my self imposed 'no more than 4 RIFs (excluding the single pistol I own which is entirely there to justify a fancy holster... which is only there to justify a fancy belt etc etc). The MWS would be the one on the chopping block (again... which I knew full well would happen). A head scratcher indeed.

Just caught your edit with the photo, that's great information to have. There seems to be so little out there in regard to the SD, seems like a great feature which I had precisely zero idea existed! Follow up question which I suspect is more for @JimFromHorshamlooking at his pile of bits. Do you happy to know/would you be willing to see how the extended picatinny into mlok top mounts sit on the SD. I imagine it's exactly the same as the A5, with the upper receivers/front end being the same in regard but measure twice cut once and all that. Toying with using one of those in combination with an Arisaka Offset to push a torch up front without needing to mount to the suppressor. In my head it works, albeit a tad goofy... but that's half the fun with SDs, especially when jubilee clips aren't an (convenient) option given where the battery lives!

Ta very much for the quick response... I was truly hoping that wasn't going to be the answer 😅.

Out of curiosity how easy would it be to chuck a tracer unit in the SD section? I hate the look of convention tracer units... but also hate adding more inches and grams tha needed onto a front end in the form of a 'proper' (read as Surefure Mini2/RC2) to accomodate a tracer unit. I've been eyeing an A5 for a while but the SD may well be a better pick for what I'd be looking to use it for... if it'd be easy enough to sling a tracer unit in it.

It varies depending on if I'm wearing the lid or not. With the lid fairly high up to avoid it getting jammed in the back of my head y the helmet suspension cam, without I wear it lower and have earpro that holds it in place. Just a case of messing around with it bending it until it felt just right, granted sometime I will wear it lower down especially if I'm not running mesh eye pro to avoid making the fogging worse. Seems to be very be a face shape thing as to how comfy folks find them.

Ta very much, it's one of the Delta Mike ones.

Outside of mixing up the clothing accompanying it I've been pretty set with gear for a while. I ended up wearing way too many layers at the start of Saturday having expected it to be a lot colder than it ended up being. Toying with having a tubes conversion made up for the FCPC, not entirely settled on if it'll be worth it.

Glamour shots of the AK, the Scalarworks mount really finished it off imo.

The appraisal I had for mine can be found here. Pretty much identical in terms of condition and what was included, bar one being painted. Mine sold for £270 including postage and PayPal. Cheers, Alex

This has been on ongoing project since about November. Finally wrapped up late last week and running absolutely phenomenally over the weekend 👌🏻.

So Camelot was certainly ‘a thing’. The first hour or so of Saturday was great, the rest of the day was… pretty shite. The age old story of too many players and a grinding stalemate that resulted in nothing much happening… for a further 2 hours. And the reward for that in the afternoon? A reverse of the same game. Woo. Sunday (today) saw many players leaving due the general not so great experience from the day prior which led to far better flow. The games being a defenders hold and fall back versus attackers. Again, the afternoon saw this reversed which given how enjoyable the morning was I was happy to see. I’d defended in the morning, I generally prefer attacking. My newly jazzed up MCX was a monster all weekend, so thanks very much Dave if you happen to read this. With how well that was performing the weekend could have been a total wash and I’d likely still come away with a smile on my face. As ever, the folks I played had a huge amount to do with everything good that came from the weekend. For those that care, I’m third in from the left. Playing surrounded by giants, I’m bang on 6’ for reference.

I feel like that BCM grip needs chopping 👀
