yep but seriously after other forums I've been one, this one is like a breath of fresh air

The Mods on this forum are great. Well done guys and keep up the great job you are doing

Yes it is and GPMG in the middle obviously haha

Another really cool loadout is the current British loadout. This is a good mate of mine who's just back from his 3rd tour in Afghan (on the left), so major credits to him for letting me use his photo. Image deleted (sorry)

Why don't you just join a local club if you already have not done so, and then I am sure you can buy a second hand one from a local member once you get your face known. I know people will jump all over this regarding UKARA but just putting a suggestion forward.

One of my favourite loadouts is my 1968 period Vietnam loadout Although my favourite at the moment is my ghillie, with my A&K SVD Dragunov

Ive heard they make so much difference

Hi all, I am about to order some silicone rubber tubing in an attempt to make my own version of the 'r-hop'. Does anyone know the ID and OD of the standard A&K SVD inner barrel? (beofre I order yself a micrometer) thanks

Cheers buddy

I have decided to go with a Motorola TLKR. I'll order it this weekend. Just to make sure I don't order the wrong PTT, could someone please send me a link to the correct item. Sorry for being a numb wit on this hahaha

Will this PTT fit this Binatone radio from this website? http://www.airsoftworld.net/z-tactical-u94-ptt-kenwood.html

Thanks for all the advice I am going to stay clear of the Baofen. Just a side note, I have just found a couple of Binatone MR300's in my garage. The range on them seems half decent and so I'm wondering what PTT's will fit those

haha I was thinking the same thing. Dry weather soldiers lol Getting wet is all part of the fun. Once you're home afterwards, in dry clothes, the feeling of achievement is great. Its when you're stuck out in the field on an exercise in the regs, with no chance of even dry clothes, thats when it becomes character building

SVD's things of beauty

this one? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BaoFeng-BF-888S-UHF-400-470-MHz-Walkie-Talkie-2-Way-Radio-Earpiece-USB-Cable-/181156424111?pt=UK_Mobile_Phones_Communication_Ham_Radio_Receivers_Transceivers&hash=item2a2dc3a9af and then all i need is a kenwood PTT yes?

Thats really positive mate I think you would be great as a Mod, especially with your wealth of experience

Are Motorola any better? I have a couple of old handsets Or can anyone recommend a half decent but not too expensive handset for use with a Bowman? I take it when I buy a PTT , I have to just buy one thats compatible with my handset, will they all fit the bowman?

That is not surprising. What are your future plans? Do you have anything in mind or is it all still numb at the moment?

I am really sorry to hear your news and can only imagine your feelings regarding this condition. If you ever what to talk about your feelings please give me a shout. I am a trained counsellor and I will listen without judgement Stay positive buddy

Hi Guys I have absolutely no idea how set up a 'press & talk' system for my comms. I have a Cobra MT975 radio which I am very comfortable with and I want to buy a Bowman Headset similar to the one shown. What do I need to buy extra and how do I then connect it all up to get a 'press & talk' system? thanks

Hi guys I have recently purchased a PSO 1 scope for my A&K SVD. It is missing however the cap on the battery compartment. Does anyone know who actually manufactures these? I am if I can find this out I can buy spares from them. I have tried looking but have drawn blanks thanks

I am tempted to try a R-hop also, just to see what happens

This is the hop up in question. It cheap and damn efficient. Seriously easy to install and all the guidance is on the web site Very Impressed http://airsoftpro.cz/eshop/product_info.php?cPath=93_204&products_id=1814&language=en

haha I just got my scope today and this SVD even scares me how accurate it is

It more earthy in reality, the photo's make it look like straw haha But saying that I am buying a few cans of dark green, brown and black this weekend
