What you’ve described is the pick ‘n’ pluck foam mentioned above.

Aye, it’s the bottom option on the Submit Advert drop down menu.

An air pistol is a firearm.

It looks like it’s been mistakenly flagged as a real air pistol rather than an airsoft version of a real air pistol. Air pistols are unusual things to make replicas of.

Made a little dropper panel so I can move my admin pouch down, makes the front of my chest rig a little cleaner. 2” Velcro at the top, three rows of PALs at the bottom. Also a couple of very hi-viz muzzle covers.

Just recently, a TM HK45 Tactical, Esstac double mag pouches, TM pistol speedloader (boy, is the difference noticeable to cheap Lonex ones), WAS universal holster. I got a crazy jet barrel and two hop rubbers to see if there is a significant difference from the already excellent TM setup. Also, a small pile of bits from Tacticaltrim.de to see about making some elastic mag pouches - shit brown bank robber rig, anyone?

I thought, as we do not seem to be getting a game in the next few weeks up here, that I’d knock up a belt kit. This was largely based on me buying an HK45 Tac last week (Thanks Rob!). From left to right: - Pair of Esstac Kywi pistol pouches, they look too close to each other for the base plates in this image but once curved around a midriff they fit perfectly. - Pair of Esstac Kywi mid height M4 pouches for fast reloads. - Double M4 mag pouch with either an Odin speedloader or two more mags. - Tactical Tailor water bottle/GP pouch, for either water or assorted crap. - Emdom BOMB pouch for bangs or as a rough admin pouch. - WAS Universal holster with TM HK45 Tactical. I’ve not had the chance to use it in a game yet but it all works well in drills so far.

Looking through the site, it’s apparent that TMC also use gen Austrialpin buckles with prices to match so I really would appreciate your thoughts when it arrives (I’ve put myself down for a restock notification too). As you say, you aren’t going to be parachuting off it or leaning out a chopper door and I’m willing to bet it’s at least as strong as a Webtex side release buckle as seen on a million 90s PLCE belt kits.

I thought that was an astonishing price for a belt with an Austrialpin buckle (pretty much the cost of a buckle, in fact), looking at the photos though, it seems they are, let’s say very close tributes to the original. I’d be really interested to get one just to see how it stands up against a real one in a bit of back yard testing.

Apart from a coyote sling and the optic, exactly my gun ?

How are you finding the light mounted there, do you get much flare or visual interference on your optic?

What is going on with those offcut special pants?

A Dynatex BFG. Such a clever bit of engineering and everything I’ve heard suggests I’ll still own it fully functional when I die.

A Specna RRA C04, literally the cheapest RIF in the shop. Primarily to have as a back up or loaner, it’s also going to be destined for messing around with. First off I’ll leave it totally stock to see where it is in performance terms, it’s currently sending a 0.28g at 270 FPS so just under 320 FPS on a 0.2g. Hopefully it will hop the .28g on stock bucking. Future plans are to change battery terminals, shim, replace hop rubber and barrel then maybe improve the externals, add a better sighting system, see about some internal components, add a mosfet but all that will be after I have a clear idea of what the baseline is like. It’s an experiment in just what dirt cheap can do against something 3x the price.

Yeah, it's a real killjoy of an act. You can't have a blowgun either ?

Well, shuriken are specifically illegal under the CJA 1988, unfortunately. You would need to get very good at the ninja-ing.

The great thing about best booze wars is that they are easily solved. All the participants just remember the outcome they want, regardless of the actual events.

Sounds like you are drinking that west coast muck and you have my sympathy, move a little higher into the hills and you’ll find the good stuff along the Spey. We sell it to anyone in the supermarket, especially those in need of enlightenment. I’d be more than happy to give you a 2 year handicap and put a bottle of 18yo Macallan against your Bushmills. I dare say I’d be happy to play for a draw in those circumstances ? And no, you didn’t, at least not that anyone can prove either way.

Yeah, I know the type. I prefer single belts, the tendency for single layer inner belts to roll and the finicky lining up of the two layers has always kept me from making them. Also, although I’d never recommend it (I even actively discourage it), the slim possibility of a belt having to be body weight bearing always makes me use the strongest construction possible. I learn to live with having to thread/rethread fairly regularly. Makes me much more focussed on what goes where and why. That’s also why I use the 38mm buckle, it’s the same height as the 2” webbing so the whole belt works in the same belt loops.

Just knocked up a new belt, thicker and stiffer than I’d normally make, used three layers of webbing for the main belt, meant there were five layers to attach the adjuster webbing, that’s a workout for the machine. Also added Velcro which is a new one for me, hoping it helps with the rotational stiffness.

Has that ever stopped a regulation writer? ?

I’ll go and get my conch and pig’s head. ?

I’m very new here, I know but does this part no longer apply?

Thanks mate
