The 'What have you just bought' Thread

Took advantage of the rare opportunity of discounts on TK and picked up some bits for the second PTW upper. Purely copy paste parts from my other builds, if it ain’t broke…

So loaded up with COVID to the gills (Actually it's my first time and it's not bad, though I hate not being able to taste or smell anything). I decided to do some BF Shopping. To complete a loadout I have been long waiting to finish. 

My Grey/Blue Tartan Contractor loadout.

I already bought this a couple of years ago and LOVE it. 

I needed to get a Black Tactical vest to go with it as I only have a Tan Urtactical Chest Rig at the moment outside my French Surplus stuff.

Pentagon Apsis Vest in Black. 

Helikon 1 Hole Balaclava in Shadow Grey

Viper Bob Hat in Titanium

Viper Folding Dump Back in Black

All from Military1st with 15% BF discount (I have surprisingly never bought from them before)

Invader Gear Revenger in Wolf Grey from Patrol Base. 

Should all go together quite nicely!

Just been to collect my new toy from parcelfarce...

FCW Striker 12 and 12xPPS shells.

Quick fiddling around with it all has revealed 3 duff shells...  2 with loose fitting base plates allowing the shell to fall forward and jam the drum,  and one needing the BB retaining cap and new o ring glueing onto the body...

Also eyeing up a replacement barrel (without inner barrel) so I can use APS shells

Ps. Excuse the DVD player remote in second pic..  needed something to stop the gun rolling over on its drum so I could take a half decent pic

Spot the guy who just got his UKARA ? - Finally got something to attach all the accessories I've been accumulating to! - G&G TR16 308 SBR & TM FNX45.

The 308's feeling very nice indeed, there's not much room in that stock for a battery as the stock mosfet, fuse and wiring take up a ton of space, I'm glad I picked up a Perun ETU++ as I'd have been scratching my head getting the battery in there otherwise - of course that's not why I got the Perun but I'm glad I did. Was an easy job to do, just need to put on a couple of cable ties to tidy things up in the stock tube. I mainly play CQB hence the tracer and light, looks great with the inner barrel ending just inside the outer. Just need to find a foregrip and then I'll work out where the pressure switch will go. Dust cover shuts but opens at every possible opportunity, the catch doesn't look likes it's up to much so I guess it'll just stay open.

Had a play with it earlier, needless to say I was like 'why's it stopped??' when the mag ran out ? gotta get used to that with mid-caps.

Not got any gas into the FNX mags yet (base plate is super deep - gas bottle nozzle extension on the way) but it feels good in the hand. The not particularly standard barrel size means I need to run an adapter for the tracer. Holding fire on if I want a red dot for it or not, partly because the holster's not arrived yet and I've no idea if it'll fit with it on.

 
I recommend asg ultra air or vorsk v6 for the fnx, the nozzles on the cans are long enough to get past the base plates ?

 
Awwww fcuk it

I bit the bullet (well Mrs P said Santa could get me it)

Got a SpectreDr on the way

Should arrive From Ali Exp, just in time for Xmas  ?

I use Nuprol 1.0 duster gas, it is the same power as the recommended abbey 144a gas but it has a longer nozzle that fits the FNX without an adapter. Lots of people use green gas with no issues in the FNX too and the majority of those nozzles reach the valve too (ASG ultra air and WE Green Gas too).

 
Well, I am well and truly hooked now. My Cyma m4 has been stood down and a shiny new m4 is here…

and yesterday I sold one of my guitars to reinvest in another new toy.. A JG RPK replica. It doesn’t say so on the advert on PB but it looks like it is EBB. I will post a pic when it arrives. Substantially cheaper than most other shops where it was £280…

Went to onlyairsoft in Stevenage yesterday to get a few items...


Nearly bumped into you then.  Looks like they had a successful day all in all because I went in to pick up the boy's M16 after they fixed its mashed gearbox, and see what they could do with my SVU.  Bumped into the person that domed me at AWA last week. 

Anyway, as per my other thread.  The sadness felt at the demise of the SVU resulted in the purchase of this:

Which rather annoyingly, the grip has just separated itself from the fecking reciever.   ?

 
That's making me a sad Panda ?.    

Looks like some of the screws holding the grip to the gearbox have been stripped during assembly.  Would think an easy fix.

If the screws are stripped, yes

If it’s the holes threaded on the gearbox/receiver, not as

Looks like they are either screws in the gearbox with threaded heads, or captive nuts (I didn't look too closely).  I'll get a gameday out of it then take it back to the shop for a proper fix. 

The actual screws that hold the grip to those have the last 5 threads eaten away, but at least not crossed. 

Bit crazy for a £500+ gun/toy ?

Powair6 service is insane, ordered and received goods inside 24hr from France!

Seriously makes you realise this country is slow on delivering.

I'm pleased to see your "break" from Airsoft didn't last long Dave, I knew you'd be back, but even I'm surprised how quickly lol. ?
