    Protecting Your Optics

    Evening all, Just wondering what the concensus was on protecting your optic lenses from being shot out, is there a purpose made item out there for sale (to fit a RIS rail, in this instance) or, and these are always my favourite, what crazy, custom goodness have you guys come up with to protect...

    Obvious questions; where did you get the foam from and what tools did you use to cut it? Because that's looks as quality a finish as any others I've seen!

    What Are the Do's and Don'ts of Uniform/Camos Etc?

    Ah I see that's where we see things slightly differently; walting and re-enacting through a faithful representation are different things in my view.  Now, walting, I absolutely couldn't stand for. But yes, in reality there's no need for it, but for some it's part of the immersive experience...

    What Are the Do's and Don'ts of Uniform/Camos Etc?

    I'll reword it slightly; I wouldn't be offended if you wore my Corps insignia if you were doing it with the knowledge of what you were representing. But, like I say, I may be in the minority being of that view.

    The 'What have you just bought' Thread

    I'd like to think if your buying this kind of item you've got some idea of what it is your putting on your head and where it originates. Don't get me wrong, the seller is 100% the issue here, but I'd hope that anyone worth their salt spending (I'd expect quite a considerable) amount on a helmet...

    What Are the Do's and Don'ts of Uniform/Camos Etc?

    Totally understand, but to have served in the Falklands you need to be getting on for 60 now; so assuming your a couple of decades younger than that, I'd be surprised if anyone called you out for walting by throwing on a maroon lid, but totally understand your reasons for not doing. A...

    What Are the Do's and Don'ts of Uniform/Camos Etc?

    Honestly, I wouldn't even mind if you did wear Regt Insignia or what have you if your just trying to be true to a specific era/Unit/Conflict. Start spinning dits about your heroics with the SLR on Mt Tumbledown and you'll likely upset a few folk, but I don't/wouldn't have any issue with anyone...

    The 'What have you just bought' Thread

    What's worse is it isn't a Mk7, it's a Virtus helmet and absolutely definitely shouldn't have been getting flogged on eBay. Even worse for buying it frankly...

    Gun Case Foam Inserts

    Hey all, So, I've a solid metal case which I acquired a few years back (see photo's) and I'm wanting to create some foam inserts so I've got a safe place to secure my modest selection (M4 GBBR and WE Glock 17) plus magazines (4 X 5.56 & 3 X G17). There is some foam already in there which I...

    Did I read that right, 11 Mags? Are you planning to invade anywhere nice?

    Gun picture thread

    Okay, so I can't pretend to understand the tech involved here but I can totally see why the guy in the video (@Skara) is claiming that is full auto. Because that is a fast RoF, arguably too fast really, for that environment.

    Load-Out / Loadout Picture topic

    Agree completely. Wouldn't even consider wearing a Plate Carrier for any activity without a Camelbak also, almost regardless of the weather conditions. It's amazing how quickly you can dehrydate on a day like today.

    And then go for the hero sleeves and you've pretty much got the whole look nailed down, right?

    Government Clarification on Airsoft/Paintball and Covid. Currently Not Allowed

    Just seen an announcement that Alton Towers is to reopen on July 4th from today's developments. Good news for us, perhaps?

    We G17 Gen 4 - Which Magazines?

    Guys, thanks for the all the responses. I'll stick with the WE ones then!  Next query, I've noticed a retailer selling both ABS and Metal Magazines; the ABS is £1 more expensive so barely any difference in cost, has anyone experience of both? I assume the valves and all that are the same so is...

    We G17 Gen 4 - Which Magazines?

    Hey all,  So I've come to the conclusion I need at least 1, perhaps 2, additional magazines for the G17.  As I understand it, the TM & WE Magazines are both compatible. I've only experience with the WE variant, so wondering what the opinions are on each, if there is a preference at all...

    R93 Blaser Parts - UK Retailers?

    Hey guys,  So a friend of mine has a KA R93 Blaser and it's been sat for years unused, because the trigger set was pretty much bust (amongst other common faults with it).  I've been having a scour online as he's keen to get it sorted (lockdown project) but can't seem to find a UK retailer that...

    Gun picture thread

    Again, apologies. Put it down to being isolated in the arse end of nowhere and spending to long working with the Arty.  They get all excited about the difference between Guns and Rifles... And it's unfortunately rubbed off on me a little.

    Gun picture thread

    Lost all credibility when you referred to the SA80 as a gun...  EDIT: My apologises, that was a really spikey response and totally not helpful.  Assuming your serving, as the the points you make are all totally valid, just got a nibble from me reference the obvious!
