    Treated myself to some new bits, including one of those fancy carbon fibre SRS suppressors and I literally can’t wrap my head around how something that size weighs 75g.

      carbon is a weird material.

       

      the fact that a 4mm*25mm cross section can hold ten tons and yet you go between the layers you can pull it apart by hand.

      I'm not generally good at understanding the weight of things basd on the numerical values, I tend to gauge everything on comparisons. My regular DTSS suppressor feels pretty light to me and weighs 240g, trying to visualise something of comparable size yet a third of the weigh is absolutely making my head spin. Seems like fascinating stuff!

      imagine it as about the same dimensions as a rail cover but will hold more than 6 cars weight without breaking.

       

      problem is it's such a directional material, and can be made really weak by something as simple as drilling a hole in it.

    Weird evening spent stripping my Polarstar Mk18 down ready to sell for parts. When I finished this build I was fairly confident I wouldn't feel the need for anything else... then my MWS came along.

    You know when you realise you have too much stuff, and common sense says you should sell some of it. Man, common sense is the worse sometimes.

      That's why I'm focusing my collection on pistols, so at least they're not excess crap that's in the way!

      Mine is always more the 'gear' side of things than it is RIFs. I don't have a vast collection of RIFs, and for the most part if I get something new it's to replace something which I will then sell on. 7 pairs of perfectly functioning coyote/tan gloves says I don't do this when it comes to gear 😂.
