Old school milsim used to be close , only real cap mags or a total BB limit of say 300 rifle / 100 pistol etc and you can only carry what is loaded into magazines , no loose ammo and no reloading mid game . It was fun

Google will show prices of £300-£400 stateside I expect , realistically selling here and shipping within the U.K. I’d say around £200 , if it has the original sheath , box and paperwork closer to £250 . certainly a nice piece , if not a little niche but I’d certainly be interested if I saw it pop up for sale somewhere as they don’t come along very often .

not that difficult at all , clean workspace , a little patience and decent tools

latest m92f military in a Guarder kit ???

Not movie accurate of course but fun all the same

?

Get yourself or make yourself some nylon parallel / drift punches .

it’s not as bright because it’s half / one third the size but luckily you have a big thick black cross to help you find the middle ?

Good boots , good eye pro , keep it light and unless you are doing some sort of themed / milsim / larp event then Wear what’s comfortable not what’s cool .

@The Waco Kid, time to dust off the welly boots ?

@Herrgh I know you said no LPVO … but something like a Vortex crossfire 1-4x24 would look great ( maybe spray the mount/mounts olive ) , these arent much more money really than a top end ACOG replica (uk price) and you’d have an absolute bulletproof (pun intended) warranty for life too , even if it got shot out they’d replace it . At x1 you can use it both eyes open like a red dot and at x4 gives you that bit more reach like the ACOG would . Also not much bigger than an ACOG , twice the eye relief and you could leave your BUIS in place . just a thought !

most prism style scopes are around half the eye relief of a conventional scope , there are a few exceptions , but really is a few . You won’t gain any more eye relief from a RS ACOG but the optical clarity , build quality etc is obviously a step up ??

try getting rid of the rear BUIS which is looking redundant anyway , that’ll give you an extra 2” of eye relief lol genuine ACOGS arent much better tbh .

no , I forget the make tbh but it’s pretty decent and it was cheap ? It’s on my Apache now , keeping the SD a little more pure for a while

I actually took these a few weeks ago for another member on here who asked the same question Whilst it doesn’t 100% line up with the cocking handle slot it does still function perfectly fine hope that helps

Thanks for heads up , shitheads everywhere these days there’s a seller on here regularly popping up in Mack’s using other peoples photos too although he seems to have plenty of positive feedback . It just doesn’t quite stack up for me ??‍♂️

?

mill finish chopping the mags first ?

Courtesy of @alxndrhll, some Pmag conversions are on the bench for the WE rifles , getting the height just right was tricky and required a little flat plate lapping into perfection and the insides need a fair bit of work if you don’t want to modify the WE inner magazine (I didn’t ) but success , modifying and floating the base plate like a diving board means the Ranger plate or base plate is nice and secure and covers all the fill port over as well gonna need some tan ones now though ?

or just ask any U.K. shop that offers a Two Tone service to spray one for you ??

Had an order arrive only last week , always had great service from WGC , one of my favourites to order from ,closely followed by Impulse101 & HAO . Redwolf have always been consistently good too

Talking of mags … these are NOT Ngrs mags pictured … so don’t get caught out https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/285025053018?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=BOXmgn_XRda&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=uwMTeZHeShe&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

it’s like new ?
