yes

 

[Sniper780]

yes

Was it a pain to fit and have you done the stock as well?

 

[Anonymoose]

Another tracer arrived, but one that looks like a silencer and not a flash hider. £63 from Amazon, it's very nicely made.

I really didn’t need a Umarex H8R, a job lot of Vorsk extended CO2 and 10 M4 mags but a deal’s a deal isn’t it ?

Gunday Acro mount base for GEN3/4 WE/TM Glock

Airtac x T1P G17/AAP Shotshell HPA Adapter

Happy new hat day to me ?

.....thought I'd try my luck with a helmet! Sick of getting hit in the head tbh....stingy lol, baseball cap is ok but you still feel it. Plus I'm sure it'll keep my nogin toastie and warm this winter.

Metal Cyma Trishot that came with 

×18 shells

×3 elastic shell carriers for the velcro panel on the receiver

M4 mag adapter + High cap mag

Pretty nice at £75, a very fun gun and now a donor piece.

Designing a triple TDC hopup that uses AEG barrels for the funny, might be able to get a comically accurate shotgun... Mmm triple barrel sniper...

LCT midcaps arrived today for my latest rifle ready to go for the weekend as I cannot stand running round shaking like a set of maracas with hicaps!

Just gutted I couldn't find the smaller midcaps and ended up with the longer 40 round versions

I bought a Vector Frenzy 1x20x28 the other day. Surprised at how nicely made and finished it is.

I liked it so much i bought a Frenzy X 1x22x26 for an upcoming gun build..

My recent purchases: 

TM Desert Warrior from the Classifieds

x3 TM M45A1 Magazines

Xc1 Clone - Aliexpress purchase but is very nice and surprisingly bright for its size.

Vorsk VX-9 Grips - The standard grips look a bit shit IMHO and these look quite smart. Should give the pistol a bit of a visual lift and make it more individual.

Would like to change the sights....anyone have any recommendations?

I like the Vorsk grips too.

And you can also get THESE grip enhancers that fit under existing grips.

I saw the grip enhancer .... didn't look fancy enough for what I wanted.

I contemplated importing a set of RS custom grips from the US but that quickly became financially unviable considering how much they cost to buy, plus shipping and potential import fees. 

The Vorsk grips seemed to tick all the boxes.

Was pretty hesitant on using AliEx for a while, but the one thing I've been needing to add to my whole gun collection is more/better optics as I'd had the same couple of red dots/scopes for years and would swap them between guns, but that was getting tiresome and they were all pretty long in the tooth anyway.  After spending a while learning to navigate the weird way that shops on said site are laid out and (mostly) getting to grips with what product is actually what (because there's loads of store fronts all advertising the same physical products but at slightly different prices), I placed a few orders while on a nice little 4-month excursion work sent me on.

Picked up clones of the Leupold HAMR and LCO (D-EVO still incoming), latest Spuhr mount, Elcan Spectre 1x/4x, Vortex Razor 1-6 w/Geissele mount, ACOG TA-02 and an Aimpoint 3x magnifier.  Plus the below EoTech and other Vortex bits.

Also swung by Negative Airsoft today, he'd done some work on my Scorpion Evo, my old CA M15 and I'd commissioned a borderline scratch-build M4A1 AEG.  Technically it started as a CYMA Daniel Defense Mk18, but I think the GB casing, buffer tube and a few other small gearbox internals and tiny screws are all that's left of the original gun.  Long story as to why, but there were many reasons rest assured.  I still 'need' to change the OB, handguard, pistol grip and stock (and maybe other little things down the line) to my own parts to make this my ideal early-2000s America's Army M4A1 but that stuff I can easily do myself.  Whereas I don't have the skill, desire or parts inventory to work on AEG guts and the gun is already sounding/shooting absolutely tip-top.
