ITAR basically controls the transfer of goods and knowledge for anything defense related. If it's on this list https://www.ecfr.gov/current/title-22/chapter-I/subchapter-M/part-121/subject-group-ECFRf7e5fe639be4566/section-121.1 ITAR covers it. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Traffic_in_Arms_Regulations

I was questioning the veracity of their chrono.

AT that price point I'd stick with decent (not Nuprol) LiPo's, Turnigy for example.

You could do worse than try an ESSTAC style 7.62 pouch with the kydex insert. That'll hold the bigger mags and still retain an M4 mag, alternatively you could double stack two single taco pouches so they have their own bungee adjustment but that gets expensive and sticks out quite a bit.

Aye, but there's the rub...

Wouldn't surprise me, they seem to let people get away with murder.

I find that if you "rock" the mag into place (kind of like when you're putting it in the rifle) they go into pouches much easier than if you just try and stuff them in. Personally I have mine adjusted for a snug fit on M14 mags and haven't had any issues losing M4 mags.

You need to look at the latest crop of high mounts in the arena of why they were produced in the first place. The whole point is to make it easier to use your optics (primarily) on an AR platform while you have NVGs on. The fact that they make it easier to get a decent head position in airsoft/wearing a mask etc is utterly coincidental.

I'd forgotten how much I LOVE that album!

They've clearly had issues with people changing weights to cheat the chrono. They should have warned people in the briefing that HPA/gas users should make sure they aren't over the joule limit with THEIR 0.3s but it's their site, their rules unfortunately.

Yeah...that's fucked.

They use PMR frequency but they're 5W so not strictly legal.

Harsh. But fair!

Not something I noticed with the WAS ones but YMMV.

No worries, drop me a message if you fancy them.

I think the only "problem" here is having a kid be jealous of his dad's toys! I call it a life lesson but there you go.

There's the obvious (and no doubt soon to be suggested by others) Smersh SVD rig that you could easily put over your Osprey. All the SVD pouches on Grey Shop call them suitable for .338 mags in general so maybe the 338 pouches from Warrior would work? https://www.uktactical.com/product/warrior-338-single-mag-multicam-5542 (I actually have a couple in tan if you're interested).

Pretty much everyone makes a pouch with a Kydex insert now. Are they all copying ESSTACs homework? Of course they are. Do they get as much stick for it as WAS do? No, of course not. They are all serving a market that thrives on copying innovations from other people and rebranding it to suit their product range. That said, at least the WAS kydex pouches don't need fucking MALICE clips to hold them on!

What about the snap mags? https://www.uktactical.com/product/warrior-laser-cut-single-snap-mag-pouch-9mm-short-multicam-18843

They are indeed. I can send some pics of mine with various mags in if you'd like?

Hi, welcome to the forum! Initial first gun newbie advice is always - leave it alone until you've used it a while and then decide if it actually needs more power/better barrel/different hop rubber. H03 is from the Specna ONE series if I remember correctly so it probably needs the gearbox out to get at the spring anyway. Easy, simple upgrade would be a ZCI barrel and a Maple Leaf macaron rubber with the Maple Leaf Omega nub. Should give you a bit of a bump in power without taking you over the site limit too. Speak to @ak2m4 about what he can supply from his wondrous website www.ak2m4.co.uk

As the owner of 3 M14s, I feel your pain.
