The 'What have you just bought' Thread

Two pairs of cutters? Wouldn't that somewhat contradict the "dura" part of the name?

I only ordered one pair to make up CPC Farnells minimum order - two arrived in the box....so one's a freebie. Bonus.

Nice! I've just ordered two reels of EcoWire from them, didn't even realise they had a minimum order (or do you mean minimum for free shipping?)

 (or do you mean minimum for free shipping?)

Essentially yes - they have a 'handling fee' for small orders (£4.99) but they don't seem to apply any shipping charges to the basket even if the total of the order + handling fee is still below the free shipping threshold. As I was close the cutoff it was cheaper to add a couple of extra bits to not pay the fee.

I really like EcoWire - I find it nice to work with, good value when you buy it by the reel compared to 'Airsoft prices'.

Shame their PTFE stuff is so expensive these days, I used to love that stuff! But yeah, paying £30 for a reel or £4 for a metre it's a no brainer.

Just got the GBL MWS short bolt & Airsoft Artisan MCX style 1913 stock! Haven't installed a nozzle in the bolt yet to test it, but I love having a side folder. Also got another MCX mini style stock coming at some point

That’s sick. Does the lower receiver set have a pic’ rail where the buffer tube should be a la the MCX or is it an adaptor?

The GBL short bolt comes with a 1913 picatinny threaded adapter for the lower to fit any 1913 picatinny stock ?

Thanks, just checked it out, very cool concept.

Let me know how it performs, will be keeping an eye out for these coming back in stock as I’m looking to downsize from a rather large peli case to a backpack for game days.

So I ended up spending way more money than anticipated.

Started off with a nice order from Varuste.net where I bought a DD hammocks tarp, a DC4 sharpening stone and a Nalgene bottle (not properly airsoft related), then bought a M600P repro torch with a few accessories that I have yet to try because my rechargeable 123s are stuck somewhere, then saw a nice Source Convertube (turns a basic water bottle into a bladder) because reasons as I already have two Source bladders (one 3l, one 2l) and about 5 minutes ago I bought a Retro Arms V3 gearbox.

It's not over though, I have some other bits and bobs in my shopping cart on another website (namely Retro Arms AK selector and screw, 2x RA M4 magazine releases, a pressure pad for a friend and then some supplies like BBs and gas)

No court in the land would convict you.

 

[Mr. No_Face]

Finally decided to address my Mag pouch issues along with a few other purchases. Bought the following:

• Condor Gen 2, Triple Kangaroo pouch
  
• x2 ABS fast Mag pouch 
  
• Some relatively cheap Holographic 558 style optic. (Had good reviews even with real steel shooting so why not)
  
• x1 MWS GBBR mag
  
• Coyote-Tan light, Quick Dry, combat shirt. Something for this weather.
  

So maybe for once my teammates won't have to chase me down and return one of my fallen mags.?

Plenty on here, myself included.

Ended up buying another respirator case just for the molle mounted flap pouches on the side (2 flap pouches on their own were going to cost a £ more than a case with 2 pouches attached).

If you haven't seen these they're great little all-purpose pouches that fold flat when empty and expand up and out when full. Easy big enough to get two lonex mags in and still velcro shut.

Not sure what to do with the resulting spare satchel, it does fit nicely on the back panel of my chest rig but I don't think I need the storage.
