I think he'll struggle to be honest. Actual Ops Core helmets only go up to 64.5 cm and Team Wendy only go to 63, that said they are sized according to having all the right layers of padding in. If he's happy to forgo a bit of the squishy stuff he might be able to use the shell with some thinner pads.

Something you don't need to do with midcaps though.

Google the gun, it's one of the first search results.

Yeah. Right up until then. Handy.

No, they're not. http://www.fma.hk/helmet-tb402-p-1249.html size info in the description at the bottom.

I run KA mids in my JG, ergo they should work fine in a TM seeing as the JG is a copy of the TM.

TMC make covers for the Airframe style hemets. Also worth looking at the FMA FTP bump in L/XL. If you take a look at FMA.hk they do actually give the head sizes they go up to. I have a 62cm noggin so I feel your pain, I have the L/XL Wendy knock off and its definitely a better fit. That said, my FMA PJ style FAST (the one with the oval vent holes) fits really well too in the L/XL size.

Depends if you want to rattle or not. If you buy 5 hi caps it's worth remembering that you won't need as many to hold the same amount of ammo! You could also look at King Arms mid caps https://airsoft.tiger111hk.com/Airsoft-Magazine-Std/Mid-AEG-Magazine/c43_261/p2687/King-Arms-G3-Series-130-rounds-Magazines-Box-Set-(5pcs)/product_info.html?osCsid=qtvcedihlghvj7du2ak30iaj97

Get a Specna One series instead. Way better.

Ant supplies have them for relatively cheap https://www.ant-supplies.uk/maintenance-and-care/cleaning-equipment/rifle-bench-vice-blocks.html

This came up when I googled "Swiss Army Load Bearing" from everything I can find, the M83 field jacket has built in load bearing to negate the need for a chest rig, belt kit seems to be used in some pics, otherwise it's the alpenflage backpack and the jacket pockets.

That's really not a lot of money. I'd be assuming this will go the same way as the SCAR and only make it to SF units to try out. The main reason the M4/M16 still hasn't been replaced is the sheer volume of them that they need to change out. From here: https://www.military.com/daily-news/2022/04/19/army-picks-its-replacement-m4-and-saw.html Given that the M4 to M4A1 upgrade plan was originally budgeted for 300,000 weapons and you'll see where I'm going with this.

I've not used one but I'm intrigued by the new style one. To address your point though: So you should be able to make it fit around your goggles. That said the mannequin does make it look like it's designed for a more "full seal" type goggle.

If it was an OEM spring they are often shorter than an aftermarket spring anyway.

As the OP has cut the spring down, there's every possibility that the spring is NOT under compression at the end of a cycle. @steverebo - if you open up the gearbox, with the piston and spring guide in place, is the spring under tension when the piston is fully forward or can it move freely back and forth?

Nicely done. It does speak to why you have your holster where you do though, always worth bearing in mind that game designers don't always place things because that's where they should be, so much as it's where it's easiest to put it for animating. As far as how you site your holster, it's a lot of personal preference but also a lot to do with ergonomics. If it's too far down your leg to draw without having to bend down/over then it's too far down. If it's moving about on your leg then it's too loose. In general drop leg holsters came about because people needed to draw around body armour and dropping the holster down gives you the clearance to do that. I'd highly recommend the Fobus EMC series (had one for ages for my HK45) but the draw does take a bit of getting used to and it would be nigh on impossible that far down your leg. I'd personally say that either a mid or low ride belt loop (safariland knock offs are easy to find and cheap) with a single leg strap nestled snugly in your crotch will make for a far easier life!

From their website: So they are a Chinese manufacturer that no doubt makes BBs for other people. They'll be cheaper because they're selling them direct without other peoples markups. This is the parent company (which explains why they make decent motors) https://www.ko-technologies.com/about-us Fun fact, I spent some time working about an hour up the road in Zhangjiagang.

Fixed that for you.

Stick your email into the stock notification here: https://www.tactical-kit.co.uk/axl-sandwich-bag-41285-p.asp Saves a chunk on shipping.

Does the recon not have an admin pocket in the top bit? Also - the AXL sandwich bag is basically exactly what you're after.

Probably so he can actually attach things to it.

Given that it's a REALLY cheap gun I'd suggest you leave it alone unless it breaks. Personally, I'd wait to get a better gun for actually using and THEN take the Lancer apart and fuck about with it to learn what you're doing to be able to fix the better one come the day that IT needs upgrading/fixing. That said, yes you can improve the longevity of a gun by improving the shimming, you can improve the performance by upgrading the air seal parts or the motor/spring but you can also fuck it completely and end up with no working gun at all.

It's funny I was going to post that exact link and then had a fit of snark. You're right of course but in all honesty google will be about as useful as asking without knowing what sort of stuff he's after beyond what fits on URX handguards.

I literally charge them the day before a game and leave them in a LiPo bag until the next time I want to use them. I'm the poster boy for total lack of maintenance! I've never had a battery actually fail on me though, but I have binned a few due to having had them for years and them getting a bit puffy (abundance of caution and all that). Wouldn't surprise me at all if airsoft packs are made of B Grade cells though, the market is nowhere near the size of RC.
