The 'What have you just bought' Thread

Bought (supposedly) 3 sets of Crye G3 combats, all 32R.  Package turned up with 2 sets on and another pair of UKSF custom Gen 2 combats in 30L.. oh well, luckily they happened to fit my brother and he fancied a pair, the others can go on the bay.  Tempting to keep a set because I'm a terrible hoarder but I really really don't need 2 pairs in normal MC.

5-mode strobe torch + rail mounts. Like this (not that actual one, but they all appear to be the same).

Wow, it's pretty bright.  And the strobe is decent.  So, it's a half press of the switch to change modes, neat.  Except... urrr.  Every time I turn it off and on again, it also changes modes.  So I set it to strobe, turn it off, turn it on... and get a slow SOS blink.  No, not user error, it does it every time no matter how much or how little I press the power button.   <_<    Back to Amazon with you.

Suggestios for a multi-hundred-lumen 1" body torch with high beam and strobe modes toggled separately from the on/off switch would be gratefully received.

Foregrip bipod.  Actually only bought as part of an Amazon order to get the total over £20 for free delivery, because I'm just that cheap - I didn't particularly want the bipod part.  Eh.  But it's not that ergonomic as a grip either.  And it's long, too long to leave on the gun while it's secured in my bag.  Well, back you go too.

Spent some time walking around DSEI this week.  Not as swag-heavy as SHOT because it's mostly procurement people in suits buying boats and guided missiles so the stalls give out a lot of pens, but I diligently hunted down what tacticool stuff was there.

Yes that is a spinner with the branding of an armoured glass company on it.

If anyone's not heard of the expo, my coverage is going up on FB/IG - www.facebook.com/RemfTacticool

Haha, saw those, don't play a lot of frisbee though.  After spending many, many days just walking up and down expo halls I've honed my instincts for sniffing out this stuff.  I also own gear from the vast majority of those brands, or if it's illegal to own here I work on it, so that's an easy talking point to start with and I will absolutely brown nose for free patches - no hesitation.

Finally bit the bullet and bought a Crye Precision JPC in multicam.

After my TMC on starting to feel it's age I decided to splash out. The TMC will be retired into an MP7 vest (no real SAPI plates now)

Also a Yeti Rambler.

 
So this past month has been trash (my cat needing a £705 operation, had to sell my gsx650f motorbike) I was feeling down 

popped into my mates shop, was not going to buy/order anything (went in for a chat ... honest).... then this just kinda got ordered/happened/alien abduction kinda thing  :lol:

You know when you order something from China and you don't have very high expectations because it was cheap, so it's a copy, so it'll be a bit meh....?

Added WE Glock 17 to my collection.

Was torn between a MP7, MP9 or Glock 17.. Went for the Glock as it was closer in price to the Rail System I bought for my Vz 58, which doesn't fit and had to be returned.. so the Mrs shouldn't mind.. too much, I hope... Although at the moment she doesn't know.. maybe its better that way.

@Jedi_Master I have mine at a slight angle on the main clip so the gun barrel (and suppressor) does not point straight downwards but rather slightly behind me, this means if I goto one knee the suppressor wont bang off the floor.
