The 'What have you just bought' Thread

It's not a 'field bag' it's a respirator haversack, hence the training combopen, CBRN inner gloves and resi cleaning cloth.
See I thought it was a respirator case when I saw it because I have a few of the older models, but it was sold as a 'field bag'.

'resi cleaning cloth' for what, cleaning the lenses on the gas mask?

Tempting now to go for the full 'noddy suit' loadout...

 
Had a chance to mess around with it yet? Whaddaya think?


Made a mini-review here - things didn't start well:





I love nearly all the ergonomics (not a huge fan of the stock) - it's lovely to hold and the external build quality is amongst the best I have ever seen. But I do have some quibbles over the stock motor, the PDW stock and the mock bolt release.

BUT - it's a keeper. I test fitted a Buffer tube/PTS EPS stock last night and that's the way to go for me - just need to extend the wiring.

I also have to remember that G&G Raiders are now very close in price (£210-220) to these guns since the price hike. Frankly this shits all over G&G plastic bodied range of guns and makes them feel very cheap to hold.

The PTS iron sights alone that ship with the EVE-4 cost £40-50 to buy separately, PTS Rail sections £8 a pop (of which you get 2), the vertical grip is damned near perfect for my tastes and would benefit from having 'PTS' stamped on it rather than 'KWA'. Overall it's very good value for money for what you get in the box.

Yikes, lousy introduction to the platform but here's to hoping it's all uphill from here. The buffer tube looks to be the same one used in the Ronin series so you should've been able to fit these Nuprol 11.1v 30c 1450 mAh Lipo Batteries in securely. It's what I used for years with no problem at all.

I'm interested to see how it looks with your new stock though.

 
I bought a Tag Evo Shell launcher from Evike. $119.00, including shipping. Been stuck at customs last couple of days, and today I get this email. UPS can keep it ? I already got one in the UK anyway.

Remember this?
After weeks of harassing my by email I sent UPS a shitty email on Friday, informing them I had already sent them my UKARA, twice, and no way I was paying that import tax, so they may as well keep the launcher shell, have fun with it.
I bought one I found on a UK site last week anyway...
UPS delivered my shell launcher today, and I've not paid a penny in tax ?

 
Apparently not... parcel? I haven't received no parcel! After all this messing around, you have now lost my parcel! Hand me a claims form please... ?
Sadly that would require evike to send another shell launcher. If only.

Oh wait, no. I get you.

Sorry, long day, really tired.
