The "Share A Bargain" Thread

having lived on the destroyers they'd be selling I can confirm with absolute certainty.... you don't want one.

Everything on this site seems cheaper than anywhere else, presumably because this is where army surplus stores get their stuff from? Don't follow the links too far or you'll end up tendering to buy a destroyer, something like that can be hard to explain to your family :D

There's some good stuff on there, Russ. I did also find this:

I went into jd today to pick up a suppressor and left with.......

CA MP5K £85 bargain

CA MP5K PDW £85 bargain

An unboxed but unused CA MP5A3 £50!!!! Utter bargain

5.11 tactical trousers in tan £10!!!!! Uber bargain

Oh and some frog lube, the suppressor

They have a few of the mp5's left now but they are selling them fast as you can imagine

 
really considering one of those mp5s, what batteries do they take(size wise etc?)

 
Unfortunately not, nearly purchased it myself but as I've only just gone and got the WE Gen4 Glock 17 I thought it might have been a bit to early to get a 2nd pistol!

 
Third time re-writing this whole thing as whenever I go to a different tab to get links it's re-directing me to AF-UK home when I return and thus I lose my progress on this comment.

Anyway about a week ago I picked up a 32L backpack for £12.99!

I know what you're thinking.

You know what, it actually doesn't seem too bad for the price.

I wouldn't recommend it for use in a skirmish (if I did, I wouldn't expect it to hold up) but it's perfect as a gear / kit back, bringing your consumables (gas, ammo, the tactical sandwiches / Mars Bars etc)

It was actually the least expensive one I found on eBay. Buy it Now and free postage.

Plus it was shipped from down south (of England) Needless to say this reduced the waiting time significantly and if arrived within the week as opposed to a month and a half. However, I do know that it is the same a Chinese product.

I've done a YouTube video on it if you're interested.

This is my rig. Although the next one I get will be a genuine Condor Tactical Operators PC this Bulle Olive Chest Harness is a very nice piece of kit, especially if you either play a lot of CQC or you're a sniper who wants a lightweight platform for carrying a few mags. Great for the airsofter on a budget too. The MOLLE section where you can attach an admin pouch for example can be folded inside the vest to further increase mobility and restrict movement less. My vest does feel quite big and bulky with my pouches on however but use whatever pouches and configurations work well for you.

Also comes in Tan.

Alternatively I would probably say this is even better. It's a very similar design, by the same company. Except if comes with the pouches! This is a brilliant package for anyone getting into airsoft.

If you get the tan version it's the same price as the other rig I just mentioned but the olive version is out or stock and another £10. It's also available in MultiCam.

I was considering getting one of these

They also have the DPM version. Sounds like the pouches you get with it will be fairly random though.

The DPM one is a different beast - a plain Assault Vest. The DDPM one is a molle vest which actually provides more flexibility than subsequent issue rigs which replaced it. If you get the pouches pictured it's a fair deal, depending on P&P, but I'd nail 'em down over exactly what pouches they have, because simply 6 ammo pouches would be a PITA - in the fullness of time you'll want the molle space for pouches to fit things like:

radio &/or phone, pyros &/or BFG/s, pistol mags, serpa holster, 40mm moscart/s, shotgun shells, admin panel w/ paperwork pouch &/or a map/notebook pouch, loose BB's (can go in pretty much any good sized pouch, but you're better off using a good sized utility pouch {8"x6" min} so that you're not struggling to get them out or away again and also so that it catches any spilled BB's + you can use it for all kinds of stuff for longer games like tactical sarnies) + don't forget things which may go in pockets, but pockets can get obstructed by webbing/gear like: pocket knife / multi-tool / speedloader/s / insulation tape / cable ties / paracord / chewing gum / boiled sweets / chocolate / fags / lighter / wallet / change for brews / GPS / lens caps off sights / spare gas / camo cream / pen / sneaky beaky devices / and whatever else you might have a play with. Water is best in a back carried hydration bladder.

I'm not suggesting that you will end up wanting all of the above or that, even if you do, you'll want to carry all of it at once, just that, out of 6, 2 ammo pouches will very quickly be redundant - resale value of DDPM ammo pouches = £1 + P&P.

Anyhoo, the reason I came back to this thread: we've been chatting radios recently - this bloke has one each new pairs of TLKR T5's and TLKR T7's at good-to-fair prices. Auctions end Wednesday am.

EDIT: this person has one of those molle DDPM vests for half the price with 4 pouches. Auction ends 22/12 11:26 am.

Free to a good home: 1 x British Army DPM S95 Jacket 180/104 - a bit knackered but well usable / 1st come 1st served - you just need to pay the postage which will i think be £6.70 for 2nd Class Recorded, but if I can't get it folded into "Medium Parcel" size, or it's over 2Kg, it will be more.
