DIY

The lemon bottles are just about the right size, not so big that BBs spill all over, but not too small that the BBs jam and flow is restricted.

I reckon BB bottles are just a bit too big, and would spill more easily when loading up mags.

Next project, DPM radio pouch cover.

Don't usually run DPM and comms, but need it for a specific event next weekend.

Any bottle with a diameter of 2-2.5cm would probably do.  I orginally went with the lemon bottles for the insert, which I am no longer using.  The lemon bottles are 2.5, If I find a bottle that is slightly smaller may try that.

BB bottles and water bottles seem a bit too big, could still work , but would need to be more carefull when filling mags/speedloaders.

 
DIY extended hop window.  Bit rough, but hoping it will give me a more range.

Mainly done with a dremel-like tool and then hand file.

Will be just flat hopped for now, might try ER Hop later on.

Cheers

Necro-ing this as I have modded my S Thunder Launcher to auto open from pressing the chamber release... Drilled a small hole where I've put the arrow in the picture and installed a spring from a washing line peg which has enough push to open the chamber but not enough to miss-align the chamber from the firing pin.

That's a nice job.   I like the cord, but should note that I've never needed any extra retention on my Kydex holster for either a TRMR or a Dynatex.  Shaping them round the BFG, then removing it and reheating so that the holster contracts slightly seem to work for me.

Yours looks tacticooler though. ;)

That looks good bud! I like the retaining chord idea! Hard to do?

Not really it’s all in the preparation ! I made a couple of different shaped paper templates before I formed it so I had a pretty good idea where I was going before I made it .

@RogerborgThe ones I make for TRMR’s don’t need the shockcord they hold fine , this one (my first attempt at a Dynatec) I’ve put the bungee on as with out it could ‘jump out’ if I’m hurling myself about but I still want to be able to deploy it as quick as possible so it’s just under enough tension to hold it in but not enough that I can’t pull it off easily and just pop the nade out . ?

 
Hmm, thinking about it, mine may actually be too tight.  It takes a good hard tug to... urgh, filth.  I might slacken it off and try a bungie based solution - thanks for the idea.  Which I shall claim as my own if it works. :P

Funny you say that but i lost a grenade last year due to a pretty shitty kydex holder from a popular place as well!

About the camera mount, I have been thinking about making one of these for a while. Nice, I'll be interested to see footage from the finished piece. Also to see how you got on with it/forgetting to allow space for it

BB bottle seem to have smaller tops now so will be fine.

I put some knee pads in my tiger stripe trousers.  Stitching is a lot better than my previous attempts.

And after a few hrs with scissors and sewing machine I now have one of these a molle dump pouch  .

View attachment 42077

And with the use of these buckles I can turn it back in to a drop leg dump pouch .?
