Nice one mate. How does it shoot?
I'm tempted to get one to finish off my czech loadouts but I can't justify the price since Ares made it and they have a bit of hit or miss record with their guns.

Shoots well, nice trigger response - Not used full auto as I only play at a SS site. However, not used it in game yet. It's very solid and well built. Quite heavy for such a small rifle

Yeah, I hear you about hit and miss, however, my M60 has never missed a beat and I managed to get the rifle + mag adapter inc shipping for £190 so was happy with it.

 
Your KAC triple tap brake is off, the centre most cut of those grooves that run in line with the axis of the bore should be at 12 o/clock ideally. If you're not bothered then hey no matter, just FYI.

Not many AR-10s around so I always like to see them, the rifle itself looks good. Any reason for only the front iron sight out of interest?

 
That's what I've done with my scope, I made the perspex fit inside the flip ring & took the flap off

I bought an A4 piece of perspex from my local rc shop & made 4 of them

 
Yup. I got my laser cut on eBay and then just threw an o-ring in to offset it from the objective a little. I managed to unscrew the retention ring inside too so it doesn't interfere with the scope covers at all - works an absolute charm.

 
I'm one of those people who try to make it rather than buy it & it certainly does the job :)

Battered paint looks brilliant on that imo. Just needs a really screwed up POSP.

Yeah I just have to find one for the right price. The scope on it at the minute is practical enough for the time being till I next get paid.
 
Well i suppose i should bust out the guns from the Armoury then:

WE M9 Beretta in Resident Evil STARS logos etc, have about 3 Gas and 4 CO2 Mags for this thing

KSC M93R in all metal construction, have about 4 x 39rds mags for this, looking to get the stock sometime later

G&G G733 Revolver, got about 18 shells for this and one speed loader, got for the s**ts and giggles and is only used for back yard plinking as reloading this in a skirmish would be annoying as hell

Krytac Trident CRB, just an M4, used mostly as a loan gun to friends and family when they come Airsofting, some cheapo KAC QD Silencer, Clone MAGPUL MBUS Sights and Clone MAGPUL Angled foregrip

View attachment 16478

G&G MP5 A5 modified to have a different RAS Rail at the front with a PEQ box attached, got about 4 mags for this and a clone EoTech 551 holo sight, again another loan gun for friends and family

View attachment 16480

KWA Kriss Vector, a heavily modified Vector, custom spray paint job done by me (and properly too disassembly, primer, paint, lacquer etc etc), got about 7 mags, ModelWorks RAS hand guard, clone SureFire Scout light, 300mm TBB inner barrel with external barrel to go with too, NPAS, Right hand Mag release set

View attachment 16481

G&G TR4-18 (HK 416) This is my gun, the one that will always go with me to games, this nobody borrows, has a Gleissel Rail at the front end, KAC QD Silencer by G&P, front Vertical grip, (not shown) Real steel SureFire Scout Light, Contour ActionCam mount, Real Steel EoTech 552 Holo Sight

The future, plan on getting a longer barrelled M4 like weapon using M4 Mags (so that mags can be interchangeable), Polarizing it and using it as a DMR with maybe a real steel Leupold Sights.

Not totally fussed about it, but I've changed it to 12 o/clock. Cheers CKinnerly :)

The front site is there because I was hoping to have the iron sights on reserves, but I had to remove the rear sight so I could place that flip up protective lens and the front sight was more flush, so I left that one on instead.

Looks nice. Maybe a perspex sacrificial insert for the scope and remove that flip up one? They can be had for about two for £3 from eBay in whatever size you desire.

I like that idea, I'll have a look and see what I can find. Then I can free up room on the top and put my flip up iron sights back on

Thank you :D

That Vector has been the main gun of this year TBH in terms or time taken to restore it and money poured into it. I got it second hand from ZeroIn Forums and it was a former two tone (in orange) whereby the previous owner just sprayed it black improperly, by the time i got it the paint was flaking off, FPS was very in consistent and hop felt like it did nothing, that said Magazines were in good nick, it came with the heavy recoil set and FPS increasing silencer.

Had to strip it down to bits and bolts, clean everything of grease and chipping, flaking paint, bought replacement, spares and upgrade parts from it mostly from Hong Kong since barely any UK stockists for this gun, a load of Grey Primer, Metallic Bronze and Iridescent Black spray paints, spent probably the best part of a week prepping the surfaces, 3 coats of priming followed by 5 coats of paint with up to 24 hours in between each coat to allow drying time (not to mention sanding in between) then 3 coats of lacquer to protect the whole thing.

Overall i must say i was very impressed with the final product, that said personally i think it weighs a ton now and looks more like a show gun than something i would skirmish with TBH but i do plan on taking it out to Dragons Lair at some point.
