SgtTalbert reacted to MikeMarden in The 'What have you just bought' Thread
Been rolling Op4 for a few years now, so thought it prudent to finally roll out with an Op4 primary!
Been mulling over a TM Type3 AK for some time, was never 100% on the standard wood (look) stock. Recent trip to my local Marui supplier I spotted the AKS - Like the idea of the sliding stock, makes this feel a bit more compact & bare bones set up.
Looking forward to putting this through its paces in the coming weeks

So today I got a new sight for my ics cxp ape. The first pic is with the old sight that I didn’t really like. The second is with the spike short dot I got to try and give it a better ‘style’ it’s also a clearer sight picture with the option of magnification etc as a bonus.
Apologies for the crappy duvet/bed pics. Weathers not fantastic here at the moment. So no option for more arty farty ones

Tokyo Marui Next Gen recoil AK47. 3D printed upper and lower handguard, Laylax stock adapter (heavily modified to fit next gen AK) and rear sight scope mount.
I want to change the pistol grip but currently nothing exists so I'll probably design and resin print a PTS style grip for it.

Or they are just repeating crap they have also learnt from other varying sources and not found out for themselves....
Serving people would obviously get bad knees from the weight, were talking airsoft here where people are hard pushed to wear the gear they own for any longer than 6 or so hours (even milsims I would say the same as people slope off for food, drink etc). Me personally, I have a set and I also have quite bad sciatic pain (again this is me personally) since getting a set and running them in my plate carrier its helped with the issues as my PC actually sits where its supposed to and is more evenly balanced after having a long hard look at where and how I had set up the externals, pouches etc. Yes, training plates aren't for everyone but as @BibbsOnTour mentioned they come in varying weights from 1.6kg upwards (and judging by majority of airsofters who carry way to much unnecessary shit anyway people can hardly talk about carrying to much weight). People actually thinking about their kit and setting things up right would barley notice any difference. hell I had a guy this weekend adamant he was taking three guns out to each game, two of which... guess what... stayed by the spawn the whole time.
This ^
Instead of bashing the people that do have them or want to run them in whatever weight they choose why not be productive and ask questions about them and what benefits they have found from using them, again yes armed forces wear plates. They also do a lot of other things that airsofters don't do, like tab for insane amounts of hours in blistering heat not only carrying plates but ammo, weapons systems (that are a lot heavier than airsoft guns in most instances), water, radios, food, med kits.... the list is pretty long, so while I appreciate the weight of plates is adding weight to you i would hazard a pretty fucking big guess its not just the plates that would account for knee issues within the military... happy to be proven wrong if plates are the sole reason for bad knees.

Opinions are amazing really arent they.
For instance, you posted what you have just bought/won and all the comments are about why you shouldn't wear them, why the fuck you carrying weight, stupid blah blah. I'd happily run training plates in my PC, I just haven't got around the buying them yet. I like to 'dress' up as soldiers only because it looks cool, try to get my rifles looking realistic etc..
However,
I'd never dream of asking someone why they aren't wearing training plates, or wearing a plate carrier or running something more realistic than a ARP9 with drum mag. As long as they take their hits and play by the rules I couldn't give a shit whos stood next to me or shooting against me. It's their game to play, their money to spend and if they would rather wear tracksuit bottoms and run a high cap, then fair game.
My point is, on the forums / groups etc.. that I look at, its normally the bog standard skirmisher type player (cant think of a better phrase) who questions others rather than other way around. Just find it strange.
