(Re-posted as I put it in the wrong place previously) WIP experiment in 'cyber ninja' loadout. Pretty sure the mask won't hold up to a heavy hit, so I've got eye pro underneath (and replacement panels are dirt cheap). Got some tabi boots on the way and I'll probably use the swords from my Deadpool set-up to finish the look. Emphasis is purely on mobility. It's refreshingly lightweight and agile, and should bring a few smiles.😁

Sorry... I posted this in the wrong thread. What an amateur.

Budget leaf suit, aka Kicking Donkey Concealment System. Just about ready for field (forest) testing. I think if I'm going to stick with the autumn leaves, I need to cluster them better though.

Finally, after nearly 4 months of planning, prep, selling and saving, my new toy is here from DCA: Double Bell SCAR-H, locked to semi auto, firing at 444-448fps with 0.2s. Prometheus air seal chamber with soft Hop-up bucking Prometheus Flat Tensioner ZCI High Precision 6.02mm Stainless Steel Inner Barrel (extended through silencer) Specwar II silencer Novritsch 1-4×40 low power variable scope Pod Grip foregrip bipod 3 x 150-round VFC midcaps Next step: Upgrade the stop-gap cam.

Yeah, it'll be a red dot, micro if necessary. I have the stock removed on my G36 permanently and it really works for CQB. Conversely, I have a fixed stock on my AK which seems more comfortable in woodland and at range. After having a blast with my lad's UMP, I found myself switching the stock up on the fly quite a lot, so I'd like to keep that functionality in the Bizon. Cutting down the rear sight (not foresight, as I keep saying) rail is definitely looking like the best option unless there's a side rail mount that has enough clearance over the upper receiver so it can be detached to collapse the stock and still fit once it's folded up.

I'd really like this variant but the up-and-over folding stock isn't going to suit the standard side-mount AK rails. I've considered replacing the foresight with a rail but it looks like the rearward overhang might also interfere. So, has anyone found a solution that doesn't involve quick-release mounts? Here's a link to a video review. You can see the stock collapse at about 0:58. I've also attached a pic of the foresight rail in case anyone's seen something similar but shorter or more forward-extended.

Thanks guys. An overwhelmingly positive set of responses. Like others, they seem to be the only place stocking what I'm after, a PPS Bizon-3. Now I know I'm safe to buy from them, I'll go pose the next question in another thread...

I've used a few HK-based retailers and always had a great experience, often even avoiding import duty. But this site has something I'd really like and I was wondering if anyone had traded with them before and could give an appraisal. Cheers.

Cheers guys. I popped this up and totally forgot about it. I'm still none the wiser, it seems. @Tackle The drilling out of rails was really something I wanted to avoid but in lieu of an alternative solution, it's looking necessary (the holsters can't be remoulded, sadly). In answer to your question though, they work absolutely fine. @Daveoc33 Cheers for the insight. If I read it right, it would seem to suggest the only metal frames out there are for the WE and the only full auto slides are for KWC. As the mags aren't cross-compatible, I'm likely at a dead end... @Cr0-Magnon Not at all. I have bright coloured toy guns for anything in public. Organised conventions etc usually have some form of police presence that will look over any props for RIFs and either ban them, insist on a bright muzzle tip/shroud or give dispensation for a photo area only.

Evening all. I'm hoping someone with experience of both versions of this gun can tell me the feasibility of my plan. Heads up, it's a bit niche. 😄 What I want: The full auto (metal slide) version, with a metal frame, with no under rail, that takes the full auto CO2 mags. The problems I have: I have 2 full auto versions with 10 mags. They have metal slides and plastic bodies, with a riveted under rail. I ordered two metal bodies which never came. What did come from that order was 1 green gas magazine... which doesn't fit the full autos. This has led me to believe that at least one metal frame is incompatible with my full auto slides. Is this the case? Why the **** am I doing this? Because I have a Deadpool cosplay and the holsters are sculpted to fit his Desert Eagles that have a railed barrel like the XIX but no under rail. I don't particularly want to drill the rail rivets out and would much prefer to replace the entire plastic frame with a metal one. Hopefully that makes sense. Apologies it's a bit specific but I was on the cusp of buying two full metal semi-auto versions, just for the frames, when that magazine mis-fit gave me pause. Included is a pic of DPs gun. I want that, but full auto, full metal, CO2 powered. Can it be done? Cheers in advance

I will certainly be in touch. I'm definitely gonna want a pink mag belt... for when I use it. 😄

I had a look at that but where I got 'P-Chan' at a really good price, there's no chance I can get the VP for less than £300. 😒 She'd see right through it and know I really bought it for myself. And what should be a "Cheers honey. That's really thoughtful." would probably become a "You spent HOW MUCH? On a pink toy gun?!" 😆

Ha! As if... Here's a true story: When I joined these boards 15 years ago, my username was 'Bison Hunter' because I desperately wanted an airsoft Bison (Bizon). I even got a guy here (Matt Bond) to make me a custom one out of a Beta Spetsnaz. I eventually left the hobby and came back this year, now my lad's old enough to play. I was gutted to find I'd missed the Bizon train. So when my wife said she wanted a pink SMG, I found that exact gun, on that exact listing... and was gutted all over again to have missed it. It's great to know it's still in service and has had some new makeup. Small world. Turns out the P90 I got her is from an animé called Gun Gale Online, a spin-off of Sword Art Online and thanks to Netflix, it's our new family TV series... educational AND pink. 😁

I've been trying to encourage my wife to join me and my lad airsofting. She mockingly said she'd only come if she could have a pink gun... Challenge accepted. 😁 The pink sling's still to arrive but the rest is good to go. I'm particularly happy with the spring loaded (red) red dot sight, which is an absolute pig to search for online.

This reminds of the the original concept behind British Army MTP... MOD: "We have DPM and desert that give us 90% camo in woodland and desert environs. But we have to buy the squaddies two sets of rig..." PJHQ: "Check this pattern out. It gives us 70% camo in BOTH environs, so we only have to buy 1 set of rig." MOD: "Take my money." PJHQ: "Cheers. You know, the Yanks are working on the same concept." MOD: "For real? It must be good. Take my wife's money too." PJHQ: "Cheers. By the way, they have this 'Future Soldier' concept too which looks pretty cool." MOD: "HOW MUCH? Naaaah mate. We'll just take the cam. The lads can navigate with a map and compass and Bowman's got another 20 years left." Sorry. Your 'borrower' pics sent me off on one there. 😄
