positive things happen to positive people, and these people are so positive

wow thank you so much Yawns, that means a lot to me and I will tell this to my god-children

haha you're correct there mate these kids are great (but as I'm their god-parent I might be biased hahaha)

thanks for your kind comments guys. Yes my friends are ok, their children were more concerned that they might not be able to attend school that day haha (kids ey!!!)

Hi guys, Before I commit to this and post in the for sale forum, I want to gauge the interest in lightweight fibreglass British mk7 helmets. These will only weight approx 400g and be made from fibreglass cloth and matting. Lightweight yet reasonably strong. I have the chance to borrow a mk7 for 24hrs from a friend in the stores at the local camp haha for my other work see this thread; (the mk7's will be better with a smooth resin finish though) http://www.airsoft-forums.co.uk/index.php/topic/21676-british-mk6-helmet-reproduction/ Let me know if there is a market and what people would be prepared to pay for a copy helmet cheers Jon

Hi just had to share this. My friends who live in Latakia, Syria have had damage done to their house by a recent rocket attack. Thought it would be interesting to others to see actual collateral damage in a real war zone. It sometimes adds a new perspective to what we do for fun. Not meant to be heavy but may be just interesting for some.

yer may be, lets talk

Welcome. I'm originally from Norwich, although now down in sunny Devon. Good luck at Uni.

So this is the look I'm trying for. I think I'm getting there I concerned me that I was wearing a desert Osprey with MTP but it looks as though it is or was common practice to mix Stock photo of Reg in Afghan My load out. When I got to wear my osprey for real we were still in desert cam, so the MTP mix has always bugged me

Full plates !!!!! omg you're crazy haha. You must post photos of this, I'd really like to see it

yes I know what you mean lol

Thank you for your kind comments. Its strong enough to be knocked around during Skirmish (but i doubt its ballistic proof hahahaha)

Cheers Airsoft-Ed here it is with my loadout. I've only really ever known this so I'm sticking with it

Well I've decided to go with what I know and stick to this

All done

I'm keeping my fingers crossed for this. The one thing I don't actually like about airsoft of the lack of noise. Its the noise during contact for me that gets the adrenaline pumping.

Padding added (with obligatory field dressing padding haha) and hopefully the mtp cover will arrive tomorrow.

I keeping missing that. note to self...........

Cost me about £8 in resin and fibreglass matting from halfords.

just done a weight comparison. My Kevlar mk6 weighs 1.5kg, my fibreglass copy only weighs 300g

Not sure if you're still looking for a replica but I made a fibreglass copy of my mk6. Only weights 300g see my thread http://www.airsoft-forums.co.uk/index.php/topic/21676-british-mk6-helmet-reproduction/

may be 4 hours

taa dah all done. Just waiting now for my MTP cover and then I can add a little scrim (proper current look)

Wow thank you so much

And a comparison between my service MK6 and the fibreglass copy. No chin strap attached yet but will do that this afternoon
