Just had the PTW back from having a service and the finishing touches completed on a second upper. You might not like it, but this is what peak performance looks like.

This has pretty much become my go to nowadays. Thought I keeping swapping between the SPUD and a tall KYWI on the left hand side. I think the KYWI is winning that battle as it stands.

I’d argue the second half of this is pretty disingenuous, the value of what he’s selling is in the £170 range excluding postage. So £40-£50 additional to get it new, not an extra £10. It’s very easy to tailor how you deliver information to make it match your narrative, but that doesn’t necessarily make it accurate. 

Best part about moving back to Midlands? Enough sites within a reasonable distance to get this shit back out again.
 

 

The full NGRS line up, the L119 needs some firming up and a once over internally but externally happy. Super pleased with the longer modern upper, nice to have an AR setup where an LPVO doesn’t look out of place.
 

A bit more bush larp from the weekend just gone.
 

 

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

They’re not the same thing bud. You’re linking EPMs, commonly available and still in production. They’re selling Pmags, absolute hens teeth and long since discontinued.

Would love to see the source for where you’re finding these new and in stock at that price.
 
Are these a little overpriced at the going rate? Probably. Enough to be in Mack’s? Probably not.

Yep just realised that feel a bit of a tit now. Still over priced but I suppose sellers market sine you can't buy them

Worth doing further research on it but I used this during my flirt with magnifiers and was fairly impressed in combination with an FTC mount (my main issue with magnifiers prior to that being flip to side mounts).
 
Ultimately landed on where I do with most things, that being I'd rather have specific tools for specific things, so ended up with a longer railed/outer barrel upper (purely for aesthetic reasons) with a perfectly serviceable LPVO (a Vector Optics Forrester if memory serves, a Vortex 1-6 clone which was about £70 when I picked it up).
 
I have no doubt my astigmatism plays a part, but magnifying an already blurry red dot was zero help meaning the only time I actually got use out of it was if I turned the red dot off and used it purely for spotting/walking others shots in for them.
 
For airsoft use I've found LPVOs work best for the woods, largely because the eye relief/eye boxes lend themselves better to the restrictions eye/face pro can put upon you versus a magnifier. With a 2 MOA dot being king anytime you don't feel mag is required... or you simply can't be bothered of the additional weight glass (and the mounts) bring with them.

Zero to 100 in record time on this one. Am I very much aware that it hurts resale value in most cases? Yes. Do I care? No.

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.
