  1. I use hobbyrc for all my lipo needs, service is spot on and postage is very reasonable considering its loose lipos. I use a tattu 1050 3s in my 308, it fits vertically edge on tonthe butt pad in my pts stock, but they usually show dimensions for he batteries in the item pictures so you can choose what would fit best.
  2. @MrTea Try the hot water and if it does get you what you want then great, if not then it'd be time to sand. If you do end up going for the sanding id chalk the inside of the holster and the press the m9 in and out, then sand off the areas where the chalk has been run rubbed or marked up
  3. Had some kydex leftover from a job so decided to use it up for a pyro/item holder.
  4. It might not be specifically what you have asked for but I've run mp9 gbbr mags off a belt before and found that anything that has the mags sticking up tall from the pouch was a pain. When things are rig or pc mount used molle and decide to drop a kydex stiffening panel behind the molle when running the same chest size molle pouches in a belt setup. Basically it's a sheet if kydex given some curve and molle slots cut into it. Then run the pouches straps through the kydex panel as you mount the pouch to the belt. It worked really well. The pouch is the ops quad pouch from hueys.
  5. You will need a lipo charger, but luckily most good chargers that are used for lipo packs will do other chemistries too. As for the rhe bags. I don't rate them at all. They aren't fire proof, and they don't filter fumes in the event of a pop. If you're worried about having them in the house then that's OK, in have seen big lipos go and it's not for everyone. However if you treat them well, charge in a sensible way and don't over discharge point there's not reason it should fail. There's plenty of lipo advise about the forum, on chargers and setups etc. But if you're unsure just ask.
  6. I think it is, with the caveat that check your rifs have a low voltage cut off or you're prepared to check the battery throughout the day or swap to a second pack if needed. Lipo batteries can have much stronger output than batteries of a comparable size in other chemistries. When we want rifs to look a particular way, use particular stocks having to house batteries can be the limiting factor with lipo batteries it much less of an issue.
  7. Some more info would help, which rif for example. Some can be tricky others really easy so it depends. Generally though, it's not too hard and it can be done with some basic tools.
  8. Holly crap. Six pages of spammer crap on the mobile version of the activity feed before I find something not bot made. Arrrgh. I don't mind helping out if it helps get rid of all the crap.
  9. I use xt connectors on everything. Simply as all my charging kit is xt based for quad flight batteries and other rc stuff. They work really well xt30s are compact and the weather seal is good to. If you have issues soldering them connect a male to female and then if the connector over heats it can't drift as the other half holds it.
  10. The quick fix is to pip it all the way out and lift the two tabs that hold the connector into the outer shell then pop it back in. While it's out you could also close up the tips toget a firmer grip on the parts when the plug is together.
  11. Don't paint it, use it and enjoy it sensibly.
  12. Change to deans or xt, just don't for get that you'll need to change tour battery and charger too.
  13. Pistol grenade launcher things, the mini moscart style/burst launcher which sits on a pistols light mount position.
  14. It's likely repairable if the trace is still there and you have a soldering iron, or somebody close by that could help. Obvious don't put your address on here but an area might help fond someone local who can help. Other than that drop a new mosfet in, personally I've been using the peruns and found them very good.
  15. You shouldnuse what your comfortable having fun with. Worrying all the time isn't going to be any fun at all. I've purchased plenty of things that have great value mint/sealed than used but I still use them. Its much more enjoyable to use them than look at them, for me at least.
  16. Geoffs do tracers in .32, I've used them. I got them from outdoor and tactical. Heavier bbs I've only seen in white or darker, but it might be worth contacting them and see of they can get them.
  17. Morning all. I'm having a clear down today, some bills are coming, so I like to know if anyone has an idea on how to price this slide. It's a nova M&P9 SAI Tier1 Griffon slide, I'll drop some pictures below.
  18. I use and have use a wide variety of bladder systems over the years, during various actives so ill try to help. Unless space in the carrier or the weight is a massive issue I'd rather have more storage and not use all of it than not have enough water. Removable tube is super useful For routing through straps and kit, as well as cleaning. If it isn't its not the end of the world camelbak and source hydration use the same size tubes and source do a retrofitting kit to make tubes removable and its very good if you want to. Better bladers don't affect the taste of the water, cheap ones do, must be the make up of the plastic. Both source and camelbak do tougher bladders for rougher use and I've not managed to pop one yet. Of the ones you listed I'd be going for the camelbak 3l version. Genuine camelbak and a sleeved tube.
  19. I run a similar setup, with a few changes happening after playing with it a few times, including long events/sims/over night. I got rid if weapon hook retention part and swapped for a 2 point sling that can snugged up for two free hands or swung round to the back and cinched tight, vtac sling the padded version. I also added a danger, too useful not to.
  20. I know a few sites used to do gbb and spring days/games. And FAO did a pistols only night not so long ago, not sure which site they used for that one though. A lot of milsim have limited ammo or low cap mag requirements but you have to look for individual events and their requirements. Personally the biggest mag I run in an aeg is 100rnd midcap. It nice to have the reload and limited supplies.
  21. That annoyed me too, but it could of even been on purpose, proof to the inaccuracy of memory..... or somebody needs a telling.
  22. Don't wrap the battery, they all get warm under use. A patch of velcro on the inside of the stock and some on one side of the battery will stop it flipping about and won't stop it from cooling. A lot of quad plots used to do the same thing with 4s lipos.
  23. I use a 40mm pouch for a trmr, my vtg doesn't fit at all.
  24. Has anyone manage to get hands on with the new vorsk vmp 1? it looks very much like a kwa mp9 with a body kit, but as the mags are going to be compatible with the mp9 there might be the chance that the parts are going to be interchangable too. i need some parts for my mp9 as the hammer decided to let go so a new line of parts would be nice.
