What's the quality of the LCTs like? They're very appealing at that price. This caught my eye: https://bbguns4less.co.uk/products/lct-airsoft-lcks-74un-full-metal-ak74-replica-aeg-in-wood.html

Hi Dan, yes as soon as i have it there'll be deeply embarassing pictures of me as a tactical seagull!

Hello all! I'm Moose, have read and lurked for a little while before joining. I'm totally new to airsofting, but have had a passing interest in guns for a long time as my dad used to do competition shooting and had a number of guns before the laws changed. Have bought a GHK SIG 553 to get started with but looking to get (many) more. Got my first airsoft match booked for Saturday, nighttime CQB at Combat Airsoft in Norfolk. Then hopefully going to RIFT in Abingdon on Sunday for the fancy dress Halloween game, dressed in a suitably naff seagull onesie. 😂

Yes, the Compact is made by KWA. It feels really nice, fits in my hand perfectly, functions and shoots perfectly. The slide just feels a little "light" and racks almost too smoothly. The ergonomics and function of it is just perfect. I've looked at the P8s and MK23s, but i prefer the USPs. I like the safety/decocker layout and the angled trigger guard. I'm just gonna have to buy one, aren't i? 🤔

Thank you for the reply. I'm definitely more inclined to have a metal slide and trademarks. (I'm picky.) If the Umarex USP is made by VFC then i imagine it's largely the same as my 4.5mm one, which is beautifully made. Apparently they're prone to trigger bars failing though if used in double action a lot. I currently have my USPc and 18C as viable sidearms, i actually like the USPc more out of the two. Might just have to add a full-size Umarex/VFC USP to the collection some time.. That 229 looks very nice!

This is exactly what i want to build. 😍

If your bills are paid you have no-one to answer to except yourself.

My GBB pistols, nothing special. 18c, 19G5, 42 and USP Compact. All are Umarex. The 42 has an awful trigger. I'll see if i can do something to improve it. Also not fond of the flared mag well on the 19G5, should've got a G3/4 instead, i just like the front serrations on the slide. What brand is it? I have a Umarex USP in 4.5mm and it's by far the nicest replica i've handled, the feel and weight is just right. On that basis i bought a Umarex USP Compact airsoft gun and it's very nice, but not quite as nice as its big brother. Part of me is keen to get a full-size USP airsoft gun.

Another tracer arrived, but one that looks like a silencer and not a flash hider. £63 from Amazon, it's very nicely made.

My first airsoft guns, GHK 553 Cerakote and Umarex (KWA?) USP Compact. (I have also bought 3 Umarex Glocks; 18C, 19G5 and 42 but not sure about them just yet.)

Was it easy to find that foregrip/bipod? I'd like to build a DMR just like that on the Umarex G3 base.

It looks like the original/early MP5 (A1?) handguard.
