The 'What have you just bought' Thread

[Crazy_Crystal]

Just a few bits for me as I'm hoping to get out a bit more this year having been doing life stuff most of last year, a Crye SPS frag pouch (the inserts mean it can carry everything from pistol mags to 12g shells) and a replica scalar leap aimpoint mount for my MCX(the holy warrior version) and the build quality on that is amazing ?

Finally got a pair of Lundhags - been wanting a pair since the late 80s and the SASS catalogue. They don’t feel as heavy as they look, I can run and the membrane will never fail! Really wish I’d got them a long time ago.View attachment 123446

As a young squaddie in the early/mid eighties I dreamt about owning a pair of these, but could never justify them as they would have cost me about 3 weeks wages, or beer tokens as they were better known?

(no such thing as dry January back then, or any other month lol?)

I’m sure the boots, DMS were more than adequate so the young you made the sensible choice. Can’t scrimp on hydration.

Can't argue on the Hydration bit, but the dms were terrible, low cut & fit like wellies, made worse by the fact we had to wear putties with them. 

Got my mitts on some urban patrol boots, they were like comfy slippers in comparison.

Back when I was in, you had to take your boots off before you even put them on in the morning.

@Tackle just doing a 4-yorkshiremen bit, please excuse my low grade sarcasm.

So I did a thing and raided ak2m4 again for a couple of nozzles hope that would fix my feeding issues...jury still out

I also got caught on a discord server for a TM MC51....and it's in the post! So excited 

I always preferred Glocks and  Desert Eagles.... but lately the Sig has been making a small itch in certain pew related places. 

Goddammit 

I have a 226, and although it is (currently) my only pistol, it's going to take a lot for me to put it down

 

[gavinkempsell]

My first Mk18 mod1

It'll be tricked out as almost every other Mk18 once some parts arrive from China... added some bits & pieces I had on other builds for the second pic.

I'm 50/50

They're both cool

As long as you don't have to make any permanent changes you get the best of both ?

Has anyone encountered this before? I now have a UKARA, but at the time of purchase (last boxing day), I ordered the RIF in two-tone, and the retailer - Extreme Airsoft, sent it without any paint work lol (?). Not that I'm complaining of this "error", but rather find it amusing.

I've had that happen before too. I rang the shop to let them know but tbh I got the impression that they didn't really care

 

[The_Roach]

Used the 416 for three games now. First time with GBBR, gas got colder as I played outside, muzzle velocity went from 349 fps to 140... Second time, warmed my mags against my body with a complex rotation system and used red gas, still quite underwhelming. Third time, used green gas but hand warmers in mag pouches, gleaming range but couldn't see fall of shot.

Now I have a scope. Will do a bit of zeroing and hop-up fine tuning next game.

VFC’s are great but getting them to work reliably and consistently is a bit of a chore.

They do look pretty though!

 

[gavinkempsell]

As above, got a few pews before my ukara, meant to be two toned but it never happened.

 

[Spartan09]

well,  haven't been keeping up here the past few months, so now time for a shotgun blast..

In November i purchased a Fobus holster for my Cybergun FN Five-seveN along with matching adapters so i can have it as a drop leg fitting or mount it to the MOLLE of my plate carrier, as i intend to start running it more regularly as my john wick hi-cappa is getting a bit war-weary.

i also bought a new sling and red dot sight, nothing special.

no purchases in December

January was just restocking consumables and bought some fill valve pins to replace leaking ones on my APS CAM shotgun shells

and finally February has seen me buy a G&G gas Lee Enfield No.4 from OnlyAirsoft, which i have only briefly fielded at the Gaol last weekend to get a feel for it around the outside of the buildings

lastly, a Krytac Kriss Vector arrived the other day from land warrior airsoft that i had pre-ordered back in November.  annoyingly though, Krytac haven't sent out the spare mags for them yet, so i am waiting for them to arrive before i can use it in anger... though i was shocked at how light the mag that came with the gun is considering its a 60 round gas mag.
