  1. So I promised some pics with my new torch. It's an Ultrafire body with a CREE XM-LT6 1600LM LED & takes 2 x 18650 3.7-4.2V Lithium batteries - Pictured here next to my other CREE XML T6 powered torch = 1 x 18650 battery There's too much ambient light here for my phone to distinguish just how much brighter the torch beam is than the other sources. Here are some comparing the two torches side by side: - the single battery is a better quality one rated at 4.2V 4200mAh & unused since being charged last Friday. - the twin batteries are rated 3.7V 3000mAh & can't remember when last charged (weeks ago). - with small amount of ambient light. - in complete darkness. - this is a main road so brightly lit. Again it doesn't do the difference in brightness justice, as that porch light seems like a brighter source than the torch beam. In fact shining the torch in that direction lights up the wall all around the light, it's just that it shows as yellow on my phone, not white as it is.
  2. Oh yeah, and my new AKS-47 - TM base gun w/ Inokatsu body kit - it's on a par with LCT bodies I'd say, but obviously it looks far too new and shiny right now. I couldn't fit any more AK mags on the chair, so there are some AK-74 mags missing

  4. Put some white paint on it then scuff the hell out of it, like on your mag, then wrap some cloth tape around it so you can only see the paint at the top and bottom. If you use a colour of tape lighter than black, coat your hand in something like brown coloured whiteboard marker and hold the grip so the ink transfers. Touch that up and maybe add a little fire ash, to make it look like dirt picked up through hard use in battle. How's that? I'll have to post a couple of new ones of my AKS-74U too, because it has undergone a couple of changes.
  5. So it seems Mr. Yóuchāi has graced our shores because both my new torch and my Skorpion mags just arrived... To call the torch 'bright' is a serious understatement: I'll take a couple of pics later when it's dark. As you can see, the Skorpion box mags fit into the real steel mag pouch, but the real bonus is that the drum mag fits exactly into one of the slots in my SVD mag pouch, so it's perfect for sniper backup: 1 x SVD & 1 x Skorpion mid cap in the back of the SVD pouch (which can be used like a dump pouch) ready to load as soon as I emerge from the safe zone. 2 x SVD mid caps in the front SVD pouch slots 1 x SVD & 1 x Skorpion hi cap in a front SVD pouch slots 1 x Skorpion mid cap & 1 x Scorpion mini hi cap in Skorpion mag pouch I'm a lean mean getting hit machine
  6. I'm still really hurting after the weekend lol! Just been to the Dr.'s for a regular checkup and the nurse was far from impressed...

  7. Can't say I like the look of any Hicapa, UTJ. Re the Makarov, yeah a GHK full steel one would be lovely, but I think I'm gonna get the Umarex from Poland anyway cos it's cheap enough to get another one if it breaks before GHK get their shit together.
  8. I had a word with one of those lads a few weeks ago to demonstrate to him that his gun was not capable of firing anywhere near as far as he thought by comparing it to my AKS on the hyperball field. He didn't seem very impressed or pleased. I only did it because every person hanging back where their guns can't even provide covering fire is basically increasing the opposition by one. I had no idea why this obvious noob came across with the confidence usually only obtained through knowing wtf you're on about. Now I get it: he thought gaming had clued him up. Penis.
  9. The Umarex CO2 Makarov is 360 FPS according to Action Hobbies. I'm gonna get one now I've got my Skorpion as sniper backup
  10. Yeah, and the Tokarevs only hold 11 BB's too. I knew the SRC one had a poor rep, but not the WE one. Can you remember where you heard that, M_P?
  11. My 6.01mm PDI barrel for my Skorpion arrived today and I discovered how X-Fire manage to confidently ship an item which absolutely must not get bent: Which may have something to do with why I got hit for £6-odd VAT (which I was prepared for and happy with) and £13.50, yes thir-fucking-teen fifty, handling fee. What happened to £8 (about which I was already feeling resentful)??? I phoned customs just after I placed the order to find out if I could pay the VAT in advance. Yes I could have, but the item would have to be handed over to some different bit of customs, outside the usual procedure and custody of the carrier, and I would then have to arrange for it's delivery to me from them. It's a fucking racket! Just bought 2 x 9.9V 750mAh 25C LiFe Batteries for my AKS-74U and 2m 16AWG hi-temp silicone wire from Component Shop - £27.55 delivered
  12. I know. It's a nightmare, innit? Pour moi: 45 degree Angle Offset Side RTS Rail Scope Mount - £4.20 inc P&P ~ Fleabay
  13. Slovenly. Oops, sorry! I remember now, that's me...
  14. Just paid for a lovely looking TM AKS-47 w/ Inokatsu body kit from our own dear Parabellum can't wait to get my grubby little mitts all over it and make it shoot plenty harder than it was intended to... Muahahahaaaa!
  15. I was the same until I was 29: 3 chest hairs on a good day, face like a baby's arse... By the time I was 33 it had all gone wrong
  16. Yeah, it's a ball ache to link to pics on fire-support. If you use Chrome you can find the image url by opening the developer tools window at the bottom of the page (Ctrl+Shift+I).
  17. Just to be clear, I was being silly
  18. I think pics are good in this thread. Helps people visualise what you're on about if they don't know.
  19. You need to shave? Great minds and all that... I almost edited Sam's original post exactly the same! Fools too mind...
