The 'What have you just bought' Thread

Marui care package ?


Ooh I'm jelly right now, saw some M9A1s come in but I'd wanted something else even longer and getting both was being rather OTT.  But whatever you have, you always want 'the other thing' or the same thing in the other colour ha.

I'm well behind on posting stuff I 'just bought', this is the early-mid '22 stuff.

Armourer Works Drum Mag paired with the EDG AK Drum Mag adaptor for the RPK.  Hopefully, one day to shoehorn it into an RPK drum mag.  Video taken in my back garden at around 7 deg C just testing the gas efficiency, not too bad considering how cold it was

I normally use XT/Rocket/SHS and the like for internals bought saw these were a decent price so thought I would give them a go. Arrived next day from Bullseye Country Sport.

Not used anything from FPS-Softair before, but the parts are apparently 'made in Italy'. I'm pleasantly surprised by the quality, but who knows about their longevity.

 
Today was like a second Christmas.

Salomon x ultra 4 GTX - literally baby shit colour.

Now discontinued Montane tactical terra pants.

Unobtanium gear custom SLEDs placard with spiritus back straps. This thing is awesome, best placard I’ve used for MWS mags.

Must admit, tried on my full Multicam kit…felt like a right nobber, might go back to a more casual look. ?

 
Bought me some lovely Polish Maskpol MAPA whilst I was in Gdansk. 

Good quality kit, though the boonie hat is too small, need to source a large one!

Belated birthday present from my wife arrived earlier this week; another set of Platatac Dax 4, this time in Rhodesian Brushstroke, and a tigerstripe boonie. As usual, the quality from Platatac is outstanding. Looking forward to giving both a run out soon. Not quite sure what to match with the Rhodey trousers, but MCB is probably favourite.

Service from Plat over Christmas was great again, but the £40+ Custom's charge was unexpected. Maybe I just got lucky on my other orders, as I've never had to pay one before. Hey ho, still well happy.

100% did, gotta assume you'll get that then take it as a bonus when you don't, the vice versa is obviously a not-great place to be.

Personally I have noticed a drop in the likelihood of my imports getting stung over the past few years.  5-6 years back it was every single thing over the limit of £18 or whatever it is. I think I remember them requiring a few VAT charges less than the couriers' ~£12 bs handling ransom.  For me (sample of 1 person, but I do import most stuff) I can't remember having to pay a charge for a year or two now *touches all of the wood*.  But, circling back and addressing the lurkers, I work on the premise those dreaded bills will still come in.

I think I'd just got lured into a false sense of security with the Platatac orders, as it's the first time one of their orders has been stopped. I've had some customs charges for larger items (RIFs etc) from Taiwan and Europe, but been lucky with parts and clothing. 

I'm not overly fussed about the charge to be honest. I'm just grateful that the package appeared unopened and undamaged, unlike the brain donors who opened a package from Powair 6 last year and seemed to have used it as a football or marital aid, going off the state of it when I received it. 

 
Another mag, to replace the lost one and some actual silicone grease for a leaky mag that has taken new o'rings and new valve and still hissing...FML....

 
A new Rusfor digi emr SVD chest rig....now if only the SVD would arrive from Patrolbases european warehouse as its frustrating having the PSO1, mags and vest ready to skirmish but no rifle!!!!!
