It's G10 XOS Minidot Railscales. Not helped by the exceptionally low res snip.

Probably a tad late in the season - bought a micro fight rig clone and a D3M backpack clone so I don't melt in the summer games. DCS is great, but it does rather insulate a little bit too much.

I'm not sure you want shady practices elaborated on, but sure:

From HK. Well done. Once again proving how much of numpty you are. EMS is a network of postal services, not a postal service. HongKongPost is significantly more expensive than ChungwaPost, so much so that you seem to have spent time finding the most expensive option to make a point. Shall we talk about how you got banned from Heavy Recoil Club because of shady practices? And then tried to circumvent the ban and got banned on the circumvented profile? Please stop commenting on my posts. I've had you on block since the last time you went on one.

EMS shipping is significantly cheaper than that. On a 10KG order from Taiwan, I paid less than £45. A single rifle is going to be less than £30.

Your entire 'store'? At worst case, import tax and duty is 23.2%. Price for PPSH on raresoft £634.99 - https://www.raresoft.co.uk/product-page/vfc-ppsh-gbbr Price for PPSH to normal customers through proact - £364.38 where wholesale is approximately 70% of the price of the listed https://www.proactstore.com/en/products/vfc-ppsh41-gbb

Well, i'm accidentally on the preorder list, so lets see how this pans out.

Better off just importing it to be honest, I suspect the only 'stores' that will import it to sell here, will be the ones running out of their basements and slap arbitrary 70% markups. Scratch 70% percent, been informed the wholesale price is about 70% of what proact are selling it to normal customers, so thats more than 100% markup.

I'm buying one when I have the funds, it fixes most of my issues with the VFC platform in one foul swoop. No guide hop bullshit, using the hop setup from the MCX's. One piece steel outer barrel, instead of the segmented bullshit held together with grub screws (something that WE managed to do as standard 15 fucking years ago). Steel BCG and FCG as standard.

Just bought another PTS Dead Air Micro Brake, as I got fed up of snagging the tri prong one on bushes on Sunday.

I had electrolytes tabs in 3 bottles and dehydration mix in the final one. I drink a lot anyway, as my medication mountain dehydrates me faster as a baseline, but once I reached the maximum daily intake on both the electrolytes (6 doses, 2 per bottle) and dehydration mix (1 dose), I called it quits.

Went to S8 for the first time in a long time today - played 2 games in the morning, then the first game in the afternoon on yellow team. Took the WE M4 and the DE N4 with me, the former I was running on HPA, the latter my new-ish-ly acquired pile of GM PMags. With the former, I was running a positively stupid arrangement with near enough half a kilo of moving mass (182g buffer and 275g steel BCG), so stealthy wasn't an option, as I could be heard from a significant distance. First game was attack/defend with swapping sides at midway, felt I did pretty well in the attacking component of that, managed to get within breathing distance of the base a few times. Defending on the second half, was hit/respawn/hit and out in the first 5 minutes, which was a little bit disappointing but we just got pinned too quickly on that. 2nd was some description of KOTH with tickets to collect off each player (starting with 3) and a 60 second respawn timer - spent the first 5-10 minutes stuck behind a barrier with enemies at pretty much every angle, so probably only shot the same 10 guys over and over, but at one point had accumulated something in the region of 20 tickets, before spending the remainder of the game pinned in a upturned tree stump hole and subsequently losing all but my original 3 tickets. Game I played in the afternoon is basically my worse nightmare of a game, a lane with minimal structured cover and an object (beer barrel in this case) to carry to the defenders end of the road. Went home after that one, purely because i'd depleted the 8L of drink I brought with me, lost almost entirely to sweating, and it was only getting warmer. All in all, for what i played of it, it was a good day.

Just bought another RA-Tech WE M4 Steel BCG as I managed to kill my existing one last weekend - so despite certain people's assumptions, they're not invincible. I was nearly 100k bb's into it though so it certainly lasts a while. Gas key is the bit that broke, but without it, can't use it.

Those are pointless for most people, as most people wanting heavy weight beebs will be playing at outdoor sites which will mandate bio's.

As said by Lozart, it's Redux and its topping out at 0.45 now.

Nope.

https://kicbbgun.com.tw/en/pro_05_02.php?id=26855&category=188 based on my last few rifle orders, EMS is about $60USD, so you'd have it shipped for £389.57 - then you just pay ~18-20% at customs on top + £12 for parcelfarce handling

Added bonus, the trigger mech is compatible with the WE G3, so you can actually get a G3 GBBR with 3rd burst.

Purple is just the bog standard colour of CGS OEM routers (e.g. https://highpressureairsoft.co.uk/products/cgs-enhanced-tm-m4-mws-gas-route-seal-set-70-degree - HPA UK on the misinformation train in that description though until the start of the last sentence, its all bollocks), Laylax have nothing to do with it.

Not even worth getting the DE Stanags with the CGS, because the routers on CGS mags sit about 1.5mm taller, which means getting seal is near impossible - you can't install CGS routers on the DE mags either, as the CGS ones are fractionally larger footprint, so whilst you can install MWS routers in CGS mags, the other way doesn't work.

Humbrol No 29 Dark Brown is also a near match to Magpul FDE and very easily obtainable as a spray in the UK as a last resort (available on Amazon), you will almost certainly need to clear coat that though (suggest a satin coat).

A two-stage trigger has two distinct phases of travel before firing. The first stage involves a longer, lighter pull to take up the slack. The second stage is a shorter, heavier pull that initiates the firing sequence. In theory this unit would allow the MWS to have the one thing this platform lacks in general, which is a crisp and precise trigger. However, in practice this particular unit is frought with problems where it is entirely possible in normal operation for the ZET plate to be bounced out of place and jam the BCG. It's firmly in the do not buy list until the manufacturer addresses the issue. If you desperately want a 2 stage trigger, Guns Modify offer one, but its very spendy.

Watching progress bar percentages that still aren't yet finished even now.

The only companies that sold it were Odin Tactical and Wolf Armouries. The former has only got white in stock and the latter doesn't exist any more.
