According to my father I have "Butchers hands". Not sure if he meant Pat Butcher or the guy with the meat cleaver but there you go!

I'd go for snug. There's quite a lot of give in the material part across the back. Personally I find nothing worse than the tips of the fingers on my gloves folding over. I have big hands but short fingers.

I find them all comfortable as they fit my hand shape well, Fast Fits have a thinner palm than Originals or M-Pacts (as evidenced by the hole in the palm of mine from a smoke grenade). Velcro on the Originals etc can be a pain in the dick but it's velcro and they all get buggered up sooner or later. For most frequent use I run a set of Originals, for CQB stuff I have a pair of M-Pact 3 ones with the rubber knuckles. None of them are all that expensive so get both if you can. I also have a pair of the Original Insulated ones for winter use that usually live in my coat pocket for dog walking, a pair of the fast fit waterproof ones that seem to have used a different pattern than all my others because the fingers are definitely longer and a pair of the Windproof ones which are toasty as fuck but about as dextrous as wearing cardboard gauntlets. My wife also has a pair of the Mechanix ladies gardening gloves!

That would be good enough for me to use a steel one.

Same same. If it has electronics in then it'll have a standby drain that can knacker a battery.

Oi! I resemble that remark!

Ah but the boots theory of socioeconomic unfairness kicks in at some point, surely?

Could you get it anodised?

I have a Gen 1 goretex parka. It's seen some use (surplus issued kit) but it's still pretty decent. By all accounts the Gen 1 was preferred over the Gen 2.

One end should be knurled, the holes in the receiver are different sizes so the knurled end sits in the slightly larger hole. If the hole has rounded out or if the knurling has worn off (or was just shit in the first place) you can get replacement ones that have deeper knurling to take up the slack. Guarder do them I think.

Original Magnums (back when they were still branded by Hi-Tec) were great and cheap. Now they're worse than the cheap copies and more expensive than they have any right to be. I tried Lowa Zephyrs but while they're incredibly light they don't seem to be available in their wide last fitting so they were just too narrow for me. Merrell work for my feet so I have a pair of MOAB III for walking the dog and MOAB Tactical 8" for the pews. Light, Goretex lined, grippy (unless it's proper boggy). Not super cheap but certainly better than Magnums. Thing is, you can get all the opinions you like from all over but unless they fit YOU, then no boot is going to be great. Get to an outdoor shop and try some on.

Good lad!

I'd suggest looking for an ambi selector set and then using the shorter one of the pair. Something like this https://www.fire-support.co.uk/product/pts-bad-ambidextrous-safety-selector-aeg-black (although they're out of stock).

Narrow it down a bit, what rifle are we talking about?

The EBR uses a long shaft motor with the collar removed.

Cyma what?

VFC or maybe an Ares. Great externals, turds for gearboxes.

Hi there, This is the part you want https://www.mlemart.com/products/cyma-ak74u-aluminum-cnc-handguard-rail-system-ris-ras

@SeniorSpaz87 could help out here?

Just to answer whether the receiver design has been changed, this is a replacement receiver set for the GC16 https://www.airsoftzone.co.uk/metal-receiver-set-for-gc16-series-black-gg.html Note the little black stub at the back of the receiver.

The sling loop would normally be held in place by the two "rails" either side of the buffer tube mount (which usually forms part of the rear of the receiver). To achieve that with your gun you'd need to get rid of that massive threaded part from the buffer tube mount.

Good lord, that shit pisses me off!
