    That seems to be a Tec 9. Not sure about the external battery mounting though, why not just make it GBB?

     

    Already is a GBB version on eHobby Asia (can't for the life of me remember the manufacturer). Though it's capable of full-auto, so technically it's a KG-9 with a barrel cover.

     

    Keeping on-topic, I'll never forget the first garden skirmish I had with my A&K SVD. Me and my best mate, vs his brother and his brother's best mate. Me and my mate were both using our spring snipers (he is the previous owner of my broken L96), and the other two had some rubbish £30 springers. The day was going alright until they got butthurt that we were too good at hiding, so we switched up the teams. I was with my mate's brother, he was with his brother's mate. It got quite interesting, but as I was looking through the shed door where we were hiding, my teammate decides to sprint out as I spot an enemy, and gets shot in the back of the neck. Bearing in mind this thing shoots at something ridiculous like 500fps out of the box, he wasn't too happy. All I could hear was my mate pissing himself laughing as he took a shot and hit me right in the noggin, ending our little day of high power plinking because his brother didn't want to get shot in the neck again. Nowadays he knows not to run out infront of someone's gun, so he learned his lesson.

    Current phase of my Ikazuchi project. I was donated the JG StarDragon by a friend who had used it for cosplay. He actually thought it was the Poseidon original, but a quick glance showed it didn't have actual holes in the front and was the JG clone. The JG M4 inside it had broken, gear box shreaded/imploded (probably due to the 120% spring) and had damage to the trigger guard.

     

    So far I've managed to remove the terrible paint job done to it by my friend and the underlaying JG crepe car dashboard rubber spray and silver paint, and give it a base coat of krylon fusion matt black (which has gone abit shiny in places from friction of use)

     

    I inserted a TM High Cycle M4 in the place of the terrible JG. This required re-wiring the battery from solid stock to front, replacing the solid stock with sliding tube one, removing the RIS handguard and replacing the outer barrel with the one from the JG

     

    Next steps are;

     

    - Skirmish it more and see how it handles, feels good so far.

    - Finishing installing a laser in the front section, just need to make some better internal mounting for it as having issues with the AEG battery pressing against it and knocking out of alignment.

    - Building in a small torch into the bottom of the front handguard. I only need a very weak thin one capable of lighting the floor beneath my feet (so don't fall down the stairs in The Mall)

    - Adding side rail on a flat panel

    - Possibly building in the PEQ box from xcotech x3300w, if i can persuade a friend with decent electronic abilities to change the LED screen in it from a direct mount into the main board to a wired one. May just stick it on a side-rail.

    - Might buy a better looking scope for it, but not too bothered as dont really use them.

    - Might change the inner barrel to a shorter 20cm one like in the JG to prevent having to use the barel extension to use a tracer unit.

    - Give it final paint-job, much more detail and some panels in a gun-metal-ish dark grey.

     

    Absolutely beautiful. Love a bit of sci-fi.

    The tacvest. Arrived a week ago but never got 'round to taking a picture. Pistol holster is a bit awkward, but it's universal so I'm not too fussed (and the Tokarev is sorta small, wobbles a bit). It's got 4 pistol mag pouches, 3 on the top left, one on the topside of the holster. Room for my 2 spare mags, a speed loader, and a mars bar. Sorted. It has 2 M4 pouches, but I don't have an M4. They're elasticated and can fit things a bit larger in it (hence the Red Bull), and actually fit Warrior L96 mags pretty perfectly so I'm more tempted to finally get around to fixing it. Has a top pocket where the velcro spot is, could fit a phone or probably a couple extra pistol mags in there (but there's plenty of room for them already).

     

    The fit is quite nice, I'm bloody tiny so I've got it the smallest it'll go, but with adjustment it can go from a perfect fit on me to a perfect fit on my 6'3 gymaholic cousin in a few minutes, so they weren't lieing about one size fitting most. The adjustment process is a tad fiddly, though you get used to it pretty quickly.

     

    All in all pretty damn good for 30 quid, nice fit, hardly any bulk, plenty of storage space. Noice. Holster's also removable incase I get sick of it.

  4. I've bought myself a Cold Steel Training Gladius - as we're allowed them to "tag" people who are too close. In my eyes a Gladius is better than a knife! Although the hand and a half sword is also tempting me....

     

    Almost bought the same thing before nabbing a Karambit instead. I was thinking of using a Cold Steel Bokken with a loadout, so if I run out of ammo I can just banzai charge. Could put it with a riot shield, actually...

     

    And to stay on topic, I bought a torch and mount of eBay for 15 quid, and have a tac vest on the way that I got for about 30 quid on Amazon. Here's the torch, will post pics of vest when it arrives:

    I used to like factions, but you get giant cheaters using xray packs who ruin everything

     

    That's true, but I didn't run into them very often. Usually they'd make it too obvious that they were using xray (building stuff out of iron blocks and having diamond everything within their first hour).

     

    I got accused of using an X-ray pack (I wasn't) on a factions server when I dug up someone's hidden trap and booby trapped it then re-disguised it all. He was not a happy bunny when I next came online at the same time as him ^_^

     

    A friend and I got permabanned from a factions server because the admins failed to siege our fortress. 3km out in the ocean, 50 blocks up from the sea, 5 block thick walls of cobblestone. We ended up using ender pearls to jump onto their cannons and killing them, then they got all butthurt and banned us for 'teleporting'. Fun times, though.

  6. CS:GO, Minecraft, Total War Rome 2 and Shogun 2, Age of Empires 2 HD, Unturned (great game, free to play at the moment aswell, it's similar to DayZ except with very simple graphics and skill and crafting systems, low system requirements aswell), and Sniper Elite V2 are the multiplayer games I have installed at the moment. I can play any of them with you guys. We should all hop onto a Minecraft factions server some time, I always used to go on them, pretty damn fun.
