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.

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.

That annoyed me too, but it could of even been on purpose, proof to the inaccuracy of memory..... or somebody needs a telling.

How to stop battery rattling in large stock
concretesnail replied to FMairsoft33's topic in General Help
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. -
I use a 40mm pouch for a trmr, my vtg doesn't fit at all.

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.

I have used a kydec for my vtg but I prefer the warrior smoke pouch. Fits nicely using the clip or velcro closure.

Another vote for the shadow foam. I much prefer it to the wave foam and pick n pluck.

If you want to knock bak a coating a wire brush head for a dremel or drill should work. I'd lock the tool then turn the piece through the brush head. It should be enough to clean off the threads and not damage the shape, unless it's the cheapest of Chinese chessium.

I did but the place went under during covid. I've found that military 1st have a good/reliable returns system when it comes to sizing changes.

id second what lozart has said about seeing if you can find some exercises to aid with the knee. ive found over multipul reconstruction surgieries rehab never ends and continued use of the exercises as helped tremendously, im a little behind you regards age but the milage has been hard . Regards kit, what youre carrying doesnt seem too extreme fore long games, very simialr to what i carry. What might help is moving the weight about a little. I have various rigs and found that sometimes a heavier rig balances the weight better than having it all one side/front. the warrior 901 i have wraps my waist well and keeps everything close to the body, adding the back panel and then putting a source hydration armour bladder in it was a god send. it spreads the water weight evenly over both sholuders and keeps it very close to centre mass. i have a micro rig that i use for short cqb type games but adding fluid weight that isnt well supported makes it become uncomfortable after a while.

I would mention it. At this point those with less morals would take it in and then claim I never arrived. Get a second one curtesy of ups as its their insurance that would be picking up the bill not JD.

I've been going through a similar issue of late, the kids and wide have swiped my headsets so I had to buy another, or try an alternative. Sennheiser game one, game zero, both sound good and have a built in mic that mutes when lifted. They will also connect to an xbox pad and give game audio and chat via the connection in the pad. I don't know if ps5 has the connection in the pad so you'll have to check first. I've also been using gsp500 headset of late and its not bad, much more adjustment on the fit than the game zero. They breath well too if you go for the material pads and the open back.

I've tried the built in balaclava type but didn't get on with the fit. I now use a delta Mike snood with built in mesh panel. It's much better. Easy to pull up and down, breaths better for keeping cool and it's nit bulky. I think there's different versions with more or less mesh so it might be worth having a look.

As a point it should generally go over your dominant side shoulder and under the offside arm. I always feel the sling should be fairly snug especially when aiming, taking out as much slack as you can so it doesn't restrict movement as much and has less chance to groin slap. as others have mentioned its common that using this type of sling means it'll rub against other kit on your chest.

7.62 AR style platform suggestions
concretesnail replied to THE FNG's topic in Guns, Gear & Loadouts
G&g 308 come in smaller / shorter variants. I've shortened mine to make the longer length optional. -
I use some pouches made by them, they are good. Years of use and no material failure and they have have had the colours consistently.

Westmidlands lost a site recently do there might be some mismatch with Google and their own website

Try Lees precision. He does a lot of barrel parts and siad he was looking at bespoke services last time I spoke to him.

i started alone too, used to drive passed an airsoft event sign all the time and i decided to give it a try. im now in the moorlands too, depending where you are in the stretched out moorlands id suggest looking at anzio, a good site and although its changes over time can be seen it still an enjoyable site with a mix of wooded/ greenery and buildings to clamber through. if you end up that way im always happy to meet new faces, most of which are younger than me.

hiya, welcome.

ncie work, i could see some site going nuts for this as it would mean a marhsal isnt having to stand on an obective just to score the game, especially if its built into a prop.
-
the kingdom might be only running sundays as they are a shared use site, but that said it is good site. if you want a mix of indoor and outdoor play then anzio could be worth a look. it has some wooded areas in and around the buildings as the site and it will increase as the weather pushes further into the spring.
