Course I did. It's an 'upgrade' on the previous AR-AK that just had a multicam stock and a plain black rail and barrel. Aww, why thank you.

Don't worry, that's never helped me when it comes to fixing AEGs either.

Love it. If you could spread that post around to most other airsofters in the world please PT that'd be grand. (Not saying people who really want to work on/upgrade guns are wrong here in case anyone was wondering, but I see way more issues result from 'upgrades' than guns left stock)

I think Ed will have seen this already, but it definitely belongs here.

Not to worry, they'll be used for about 7 days total of light duties each year (excluding contingencies like we had with the floods) and maybe the odd skirmish. So I should be alright. As you say they are a lightweight/urban ops type boot end of the day, wouldn't expect much out of them. Got my LOWAs if I ever have to do lots of bergan tabs over the falklands again.

Not sure about width, but they seem to run very big on the shoe size. I get a 9 sometimes 10 in civvie trainers, usually an 8 in issued shoes/boots but I had to go for a 7 on these (for some reason the 8s were enormous boats compared to normal).

No to rain on your parade mate, but you're gonna want to take another look at the upper part of that handguard. It's pretty evident from that picture it's quite a way from being fitted on properly. If you can post up a shot of the area where it meets the upper receiver (preferably from an angle looking down at the top of the rifle) we should be able to get that sorted. There's a couple of different copies of the KAC RAS and depending on how yours attaches will depend on the fix. But from that picture it almost gives the impression the entire unit might be on backwards, either that, your fastening bracket is in the wrong place, or the barrel nut/corresponding channel in the rail is way off spec.

Free boots that I'd actually quite willingly wear to airsoft (makes a nice change). Every trip to stores is like a special, magical adventure. Where you'll either come out with a bag full kit of kit and a smile, or get horrible contractor talk to you like you're dirt for daring to ask for replacements for your worn out/non-fitting stuff.

Sometimes, a man needs the option to replicate the look of a rifle that quickly switches between 4x and 7x magnification. That's just a fact.

Grab a Lipo? Plenty of those that'll fit inside a KAC RAS replica without breaking a sweat. No jury rigging required, no fake PEQ box or anything else like that. If you've got to make do with what you have that's absolutely fine don't get me wrong, but NiCd & NiMh are the battery equivalent of a VHS tape.

Bespoke cordura-on-leather 1911 holster to baby and pamper my TM Series70s. Gets my award for nicest smelling airsoft product of all time.

WGC bringing the goods, as per. -VFC KAC profile 11.5" Outer -VFC and Prometheus inners as per the above -Dytac URX3 Hand stop -PTS MOE Trigger guard - Foliage -PTS MOE Pistol grip - FDE -PTS x Rainier Arms LM4 Charging Handles -PTS x Griffin Arm FH, Flash Comp & Tactical Comp Also I don't think I posted the WAS Sabre and Nemesis rigs from a week or two back. Picked 'em up to review and check Warrior kit was still up to snuff seeing as I've been recommending it to people all this time but not actually bought any for a long while.

It's a VCRA defence. UKARA is just an association of retailers that happen to run a database.

Quick unboxing shot courtesy of my brother back home. -Dytac 12.5" Barrel w/Mid-length gas system for TM EBB ARs -"Ayaaaaah!?!" patch for when people (including myself) do silly things -Madbull Adam Arms gas piston/gas block kit, mid-length. No more silly direct impingement for my airsoft guns....

VFC SR-16. Thinking about switching over the grip and stock for black rather than FDE, would mean there's then only 2 colours on the gun instead of the current 3 which is getting to my OCD.

It's all related to the symbols and graphics used to display hazard warnings related to explosives. Generally seen on storage containers/buildings and trucks transporting any type of explosive materials be it civilian stuff all the way through small arms ammunition up to aircraft bombs and plastics. It's all very inter-linked with the air force armament trade, we tend to get lots of custom apparel, coins, cufflinks etc done up using the same basic symbolism. Within the military it'll generally be labels like these all over everything we work with or on: I picked 1.1 for the engravings because that's the most dangerous stuff with the most cool factor. Stuff like P7, 500-2000lb bombs, air-to-air missiles, claymores etc would fall under the 1.1 category. The larger numbers represent lesser hazards, so 1.3 for example is just a fire hazard rather than all out explosion, things like smoke grenades and large flares.

Cheers. Not sure of the exact figure off the top of my head, something like $110-120 before any shipping/tax.

Bespoke engraved grips from VZ finally arrived at the weekend.

I get ya, but I like to explain these things for all the lurkers. The less modular holsters tend to look a bit better, be they G-Code, OTG, Raven or whoever, particularly because you can get more options in terms of surface finish. That said I still like the look of my SOC Rigs, particularly with the two colours of kydex, but no worries if you personally don't.

Each to their own, looks fine to me personally. G-Code quality is as good as it gets, built and functions at least as well as a Safariland and far superior to a SERPA. That and I can swap the lower cowlings out for compatibility with different lights in a matter of seconds so I only have to spend an extra $25 instead of $100+ on a complete new holster.

Heh, well I don't think there's too much cross-membership between here and there so I figured might as well.

New FirstSpear belt line, been using the same Tac Tailor belt for some time now and it did a good job but lacked the ability to cater for both PALS and belt mounting like my old VTAC Brokos did so this setup makes an ideal combination of the two.

They should indeed, not hard to have a conversion chart printed and kept on a table next to the chrono station. I'd bet money a lot of people are breaking the safety rules without the foggiest idea they're even doing it. Specially when you see so many people on different forums recommending heavier weight ammo for GBB weapons.
