Sounds like my memoir.... hahaha. Apart from the drink. I do like a drink, but at home as its cheaper. Plus im a boring bugger too haha.

It looks like the markings have "DP" meaning it was a drill purpose weapon nefore it was deactivated. So at the time would be missing the firing pin, but would still go through all the motions when training. So would cock, chamber rounds etc. Would have had a white line sprayed around the handguard with DP marked in black on it. Obviously removed all that when sent for deactivation.

Don't fancy my chances with this one.... looks well warn out already. Hahaha On the ops question. It would be great to keep the forums going. Easy to navigate, find the right sections etc etc. I actually prefer them. But unfortunately, newer generations just want to post and move on Like with other platforms. Plus I've actually found that some people don't like forums, because you can't delete/hide negative comments. So on fb, if you make a post. You have control over who can comment etc. And still come out smelling of roses. Here, they have to face the honest truth, and can't hide from it!... Plus they can't be arsed to do the research themselves, where they can just keep asking the same 5 questions over and over hahaha. But I'm game to keep the forum as much as possible. I'd be interested to know how much it costs to run a forum. I'm not tech minded, so is a genuine interest here?

Another small update. 2 more rifles and an adapted acog. First, is the L2A1 SACTARASS (semi-automatic counter terrorist assault rifle and sniper system). (HK 417) This has been seen used with uksf for many years now. With 3 different variants. 12", 16" & 20" versions. Mine is a vfc 12" version with a surefire suppressor and acog. It's current set up as seen in a few reference pics that have been floating about. The acog has also had to be adapted. So the uksf were known for sticking with the TA01, but with the RMR. Meaning it has an off set front sight and larue mount. For airsoft, they never done this. Meaning I've had to pretty much butcher 2 acogs to make one. A box standard TA01, then a TA31 rco for the RMR and off set front sight blade. Second weapon is the L80A1 (MP5K) This has been In Service for decades. So nothing special to really report here. There was another version of the MP5K, that had its sights removed!... This was known as the L90A1.

Just to let you guys know. Andy Stevens, who owns UCAP finally succumbed to his illness, and sadly passed today. R.I.P Andy.

Oh man... I'd be all over that bren (price depending) and me being me would have to pay with it, and convert to a L4...
-
Is it the steel slide or aluminium slide variant? Either way, good find. Very rare these days.
-
Cheers bud. Yeah, not sure why we didn't, specially as we had the 6x acog in use/stores. As for vfc kick. I wouldn't know, as this is the aeg version, not gbb.
-
Latest acquisitions... L2A1 sactarass (VFC HK 417) L90A1 (well gbb mp5k) Replica TA01, the n robbed thefront sight blade and rmr of a TA31 acog l, to match the correct acogs used by uksf.

So it appears zeroin forum is back up. But it's a complete restart. So all the old chats/threads are gone. Had to create a new account again etc. Lets see how long this lasts...
-
THIS ADVERT IS 'UNCOMPLETED' - THIS MEANS THE ADVERTISER HASN'T BUMPED THIS LISTING, BUT IT COULD STILL BE WORTH CONTACTING THEM.
- Wanted
- Used or as new
Looking for a G&G L85A1. This must be the A1 version, not the A2 or 3 Ideally looking for a boneyard, but happy to see what's about depending on price. So not fussed if the original or etu version. Also not too bothered on accessories, just as long as the rifle is complete and in a reasonable condition.NO VALUE SPECIFIED
-
Always liked the scar, specially the H version like yours. Trouble is I'd make mine heavy as.. As would add the ugl too hahaha. Looks good bud.

Update.... So, these next two have been on my search list for a very long time. So, first up L131A1.... (Glock 17 gen 4) So this pistol eventually replaced the ageing L9 browning, with the gen 3 being in service with the sas before that!. Mine, is the very early fully traded and hard to find Stark Arms/VFC gen 4 glock. What makes this stand out over other brand glocks, is the markings!. So the later umarex/vfc , tm/guarder and GHK glocks, all come with the U.S glock markings. The Stark Arms comes with the correct European markings and German proof marks as found on the real L131A1. The only other brand close to this is the early WE fully traded glocks. Only issue with the WE glocks are, that the lower and upper look and marked a gen 4. But the recoil spring is still the slim Gen 3 type. I have also fitted real sights and lanyard adaptor, along with a replica QR code as also seen ok British glocks. Only thing left to do on mine is get the L131 and NSN details engraved on the lower. Top 2 pics are from the real L131 Last pic is mine. 2nd one is L104A1 (HK69) This was brought in for use in Northern Ireland to fire smoke and baton rounds. Then was later used in Iraq. And believe it still in use at the moment, as one pic was posted of it in use last year with a red dot as a rear sight. Mine is the hard to find original CAW HK69 When I got this, was sprayed all green. Took it back to normal, then weathered it. Also fitted real sights. In the process of getting some parts 3d printed to get it running again. Then looking at getting correct markings added. Top pic is of it in use. Bottom is mine.

Top is VFC Bottom is the early fully traded WE Both have no mags, and have both sat for 2 years. Fps unknown.

Yeah it is a shame. I've seen lots of forums gonover the years. Some were still a hive of activity. UKAZ & zeroin were the other places to be. But UKAZ disappeared no warning. And zeroin how knows... Other than this forum, only leaves a few small ones. And the big American forum went last year too. For me it's a shame. As I always find the forums far easier to navigate and find threads. Without having to scroll past hundreds of posts. When fb started banning groups, I was really shocked that the forums didn't take off again.
-
So managed to obtain an old CAW HK69. Was all painted and original sights were floppy. So added real front and rear sight. Removed to paint and weathered the metal.
-
Thank you bud. Seems my rough price is near the money.. no pun intended haha. Will try and dig out a mount for it if I can find it.

Looking for a rough idea on price for a lct G3A4 This is the non blowback version. This is completely stock internal, with a few marks external where sight mounts etc had been present. The fps is 400. So either needs down grading or locking to semi for DMR role. This is because ordered from abroad, and has come "as is" from Asia. Comes with 1 mag. But does not have the original box. Now these were around £450/500 new. So would 300/280 be the ball park? Cheers.

Latest arrival. With a massive thanks to a very good member on this forum. The L100A1 (G3KA4) The real rifle was seen (and well pictured) in use with UKSF in Afghanistan. But was documented in use well before that. Mine is the LCT LC3K. It's set up in the configuration as seen in use in afghan. The flash hider had to be specially made by LCS Engineering. The grip pod has been stripped out, and turned into a battery box. This is due to the railed handguard leaving no room. It also features; real * handguard * scope mount * rear sight. At the moment the dbal is busted. But will be replacing that when I can. Heres a warning to those looking at doing similar!!!!!. The issue is that LCT isn't 1:1. So the real rail sits slightly too short. So trying to figure out how to get around that. Now just need to weather it a bit more. And may even add a very slight dusting of tan in the nooks and crannies. The other small thing is picked up a busted airsoft Claymore mine. The american designation is M18/M33. Still trying to find out the "L" designation is.
