The 'What have you just bought' Thread

@Adolf Hamster, that looks like it almost belongs on a small motorcycle! ?

people may say i'm dramatizing but it weighs about as much as a small motorcycle

i mean i never expected a steel pbs4 to be light but the walls of the can are 4mm thick in places.....

Just brought a new Airsoft Matserpiece pistol grip and trigger for my Limcat Hi-Capa so much better than the standard plastic TM one!

Oh and I went and brought a Tapp Airsoft drum mag for it!

B6AC clone for €15.

I could have spent more on the real deal, but not knowing how to tell it apart from clones I didn't want to risk being scammed to shit

This arrived today after a long wait. Almost zero parallax at 3m isn’t bad at all I don’t think

In my case it would see more use at the very least. Lovely looking bit of kit bud! That the one with the tracer unit in it?

Yep, lovely looking suppressor but man you do notice all that weight up there.....

Aye, those thicc boys really throw the balance off when you're adding a heap of weight that far from the natural 'pivot point' (there is probably an actual term for what I'm trying to say) when handling the RIF. I've found a noticeable difference in how unwieldly the DTSS suppressors feel when used with the G-Spec length barrel versus the 16" and 22" outer barrels. Pretty crazy how the same amount of weight can carry so differently depending on how far from your grip they are.

 

[Adolf Hamster]

Centre of gravity is the term you're after.

Problem is that can has about 4mm thick steel in places, so its super heavy.

Probably will run her as standard unless i'm for a night game with the tracer on, an e&l ak isnt exactly a featherweight before you start hanging heavy things on it

That's the one!

Seems entirely reasonable, I imagine it'd carry a bit nicer on an AK SU (apologies if this incurs the wrath of the AK Gods, I'm not really an 'AK guy') of some description but a glorious looking chunk of steel for sure.

Yeah it'd definately work better on an aksu but i'm kinda worried it'd bend the barrel on the jg

However this just means i have an excuse to get another e&l

Nice looking gat with a few extras. Cant wait to try it out at weekend ?

It's called momentum and it's mostly why engineers (and to a limited extent us surveyors) hate architects with a passion

I design board games for a living, so suffice to say the dictionary definitions of words often get muddled up with ones I’ve defined in rulebooks to mean something else from time to time! Momentum is very much one of the worst offenders in this case.

Load of Chinese surplus gear cos why not?  Meets the criteria of being cool and unusual.

surely if an architect's work involves momentum he's probably goofed somewhere

i think what you're meaning though is moment of inertia, which would be the technical term describing why sticking a really heavy weight on the end of a long gun is a great workout
