You just skipping the 3D printing SCAR accessories part and just 3D printing the whole thing?

Bit of a throwback but only to like 3-4 years ago.

Must admit I think a MOE K2 (if you want to keep that angle) would also be a huge improvement over the TM pistol grip since you've got the brace on there, but good looker regardless. Nice rail and neat + compact Scout setup.

General tip for any spiritus and associated clone rigs; put whatever you're gonna carry in to the insert beforehand as mentioned, whether it's 556 mags, SMG, whatever, then kinda bend it in to a curve and push it in. Only the convex side of the velcro will try and stick on the way down and you can just slide a piece of paper/your hand/your Trojan Magnums in there to stop it adhering before the insert is fully home. After 1 or 2 goes you can swap loadouts in seconds.

I'd take one over two aaaany day personally, but beauty is in the eye. T-1 maybe, but I think the 30mm tube classic aimpoints overall have much too much volume/surface area for tiny SMGs I have to say.

It's super rude of you to remind me that none of the MP5s I want are in stock right now by posting the best possible classic setup.

? they actually don't make much off me (comparatively speaking), most of it comes from ebay. Might get some of the hot weathers but that's it for now in terms of stuff that's commercially available, don't rate the PCs for airsoft personally.

Fair bit of photography and practising image editing the past couple of days while I'm home on leave. Edit - I really shat out with this system of the board making supporter posts slightly grey instead of white lol

Gotta be a de-ac right? Real shame it's not legal here like it (presumably?) is in the states. A gearbox in the body of a de-ac spits bbs no differently to one inside an airsoft receiver set after all, with the right investment and machine tools one could make some super sweet guns that way with infinitely higher external quality than anything from an airsoft brand, that's when airsoft versions even exist. Which presumably (again) will be the end result here so that's cool.

It's a strong effort so far, good attention to the small details like the forward assist, charging handle and castle nut. I'd suggest a handguard that's all spikey at the front (there's been a fair few RS and airsoft over the years) and a more offensive pistol grip.

The No4's design/shape must be too old to have any sort of patent apply and afaik nobody has anything like trademark license holding over the markings that the Royal small arms factories applied to Lee-Enfield type rifles. Unless there's some aspect to the way the airsoft gun operates that's patented I can't really see what they mean there, unless Redwolf setup some shenanigans when they did theirs maybe? Be interested to know what they meant specifically.

Ah, memories.

It's not 'ambi' per se you can just actuate the bolt catch and release much faster with your trigger finger, look up the BAD lever. I don't know about you but I'm never in a situation where I absolutely need to do a mag change on my support side in a bb battle, that and my gear isn't optimised for that anyway, but I enjoy fast reloads just for the audible and tactile aspects of doing so. I'd like to change a lot of other small parts like the mag catch, receiver pins, forward assist etc for aftermarket but the aftermarket for this platform is minuscule. I feel like I didn't clearly enough explain it's very much not finished, haha.

Built this absolutely years ago but was worried @Adolf Hamster might not have seen it

Services vs a product. Had a guy I trust sort out some crappy machine work/cerakote/aftermarket parts to get this horrible beast nearly over the finish line.

I mean it's cool and practical to roll the sleeves either to the elbow or at least partially when it's hot vs cinching them closed around the wrist, way more air flow. The look of not-collapsed-on-the-floor is the one I'd recommend though. It just always sticks in my head that almost bob on 2 years ago from today I was at a small site with temperatures much like they are now (peaking over 30) and 2 guys turned up in all black gear with PCs, then I'm pretty sure they drank either nothing or coffee/energy drinks and both feinted in the safe zone shortly before lunch. I was there in a super thin MC combat shirt (i.e. light colours) with a small chest rig and thin coverings all over much to protect myself from the sun, still sweating lots but drinking loads of water, the occasional bite of a cereal bar, felt warm but fine. Not saying this is anyone here but it was an eye opener to how unaware folks sometimes is when it comes to being out in climates they're not usually in.

Looks pretty well adjusted, which is a rarity. Get a standard non-FR issued UBACS if it's still warm when your local re-opens though or you'll die of dehydration ?

NiMh still exists?

Mmmmhm. Whether he's gonna offer super-mixed camo at regular prices I dunno cause it'd be a lot more effort and inefficient with materials to make these vs one pattern/colour the usual way, but I'll chat to him soon.

Just a whole lotta wacky 90s fun time.

? reading that in his voice. Been stuck on camp basically. Legally I've always been allowed to travel between home and the block but my dad's very old and been super ill (to put it lightly) until not too long ago so I sat in the block losing my mind gradually until the numbers of cases dropped right back down. Yeah I got sick of having a giant stack of specific kydex holsters and never having the right gun/light/colour combo I wanted. They were all very nice and gucci but at the time I bought them there weren't any companies who built kydex around the specific models of airsoft guns (especially Glocks) so fitment often wasn't *quite* right. Having a generic CB coloured one for no-light mounting that works with pretty much all outdoor loadouts and a grey lighted one for anything indoors takes up a ton less space. I've not liked BH as a company for many years, went off SERPAs long ago, but I think they've turned things around a little. My expectations quality wise were very low but they're fairly solid as it turns out. Wouldn't take one to war because the mech looks like it'll jam with sand/mud/stones same as SERPAs do but for bb wars where it's fun to own a range of different models (and financially viable to do so) they sure fit the bill, even better than the offerings from SureFire and S&S actually.

Came home the other day for the first time in about 10 weeks, which has been nice. Arrivals from the past 6 months:

By 'the SA80' do you mean the family of firearms that includes the L85? In work I call 'em guns, gats, bangsticks, shooters and a million and one other things since saying RIFLE ad nauseum when you're literally surrounded by the things gets super boring tbh.

Probably varies from camp to camp let alone between services, but on a basic level the stuff you get issued on your gun has to stay on there, but you can move things around to wherever best fits. The SUSAT can be slid back and forward on its' rail in to 3 different positions and from what I've seen usually people get to pick wherever fits them best. The Elcan LDS obviously goes on pic rail so has many possible mounting spots. As mentioned the grip-pod that is issued along with the DD pic handguard can be moved wherever is comfortable. I'd prefer mine further out for example but with osprey on and lying prone I can't reach the thing unless it's pretty close in. I've seen infantry guys with their own magpul AFGs and RVGs amongst other picatinny attachments. Personally I have an aftermarket sling that's just made to look similar enough to the issued green one that people don't question it. If you look up recent pictures of army guys on deployment (i.e. within the last 3 years) you'll see lots of examples of small variances in configuring the A2 and A3.
