The 'What have you just bought' Thread

Been on the lookout for a gun to DMR and I came across this LCT G3. It’s a full size, mostly metal, big mag, big gun.  1.1m long and 5kg with an empty mag she’s a beast. 
 

Plan to get it looking right, bit of patina to make it feel its age, might see if I can find a set of the wooden stock/hand guard I've seen on my travels. Era correct 2 point sling and optic, maybe a big fat mock suppressor to add to the bigness? Need a couple of extra mags as well. 
 

When it’s looking right it’s going to a tech for a good service, not sure on the condition of the internals? Sounds a bit whiney, but does shoot straight, not sure if that’s a characteristic of this motor/gearbox combo? Will be rebuilt to be a semi only DMR, optical mosfet for trigger response, big spring for power and a good shim to get it running smooth.

Another very pretty gun to add to the collection.

LCT G3s are pretty notorious for a few things (the midcaps being one of them) but they make awesome pieces once sorted. Have fun lugging that sledgehammer around all day though!

Have had to resort to Brownells as no one in the UK has them in stock, so bought another pack of Magpul Gen M3 AR/M4 Ranger plates.

Also bought 2 packs of Federal Concepts mag locks, so I can install the ranger plates on the GM PMags without the shell yeeting the internals.

 
Visited Airsoftworld in Fife today...

TM UGR-I aeg

NE Uzi

The Uzi is a bucket list item & always wanted it with a wooden stock, the UGR-I was a 'tism' thing, with AR15/M16 collection with gaps it became a want/need to have one, I was going to get the GBBR as TM seems to be a must for a GBBR but I preferred the longer barrel & gas mags are expensive & heavy.

Now I need to buy a battery for it...

If you read or remember my post about haggling, the plan was to ask for a deal on a gas URG-I, M16A2 & the Uzi but what I was willing to pay would certainly be too low & a bit cheeky so I opted for these two today & maybe the M16A2 next month.

Besides, I have an S&T BAR on it's way soon from Austeyr

& I couldn't post any pics without the typical above the radiator pic too.

I was there on Sat, put my hand on the VFC OSW (very nice) and the NE Uzi

The lad in on Sat afternoon was exceptionally chatty and friendly!

Funnily enough I was fondling it too, was very tempting.

It was my first visit to a bricks & mortar airsoft shop and it was a very possitive experience, both the guys were great, chatted to the owner for ages (sorry I'm terrible with names), I've bought online from them before but don't think I realised they were so close (ish) to me, I'll deffo be back next month as I have my eye on the M16A2, and possibly something else a bit cheaper.

Oh right. Getting my days muddled up. Different time zones and all that.. ?

A few bits. Recently went down the plate carrier route, after borrowing one for a day. Picked up a Warrior DCS, which is good, but doesn't cope with placards. 

So I bought an AXL adapter panel, which is very thin/low profile and threads into the molle to give you an option to mount placards.

This then gave me some options for an MP5 placard, in this case the unobtanium sled.

Swapped out the buckles for G hooks for a lower profile, and...

Eotech lens protector as the glass already has a crack in the corner (fortunately it doesn't affect the reticule) but I don't want it to get worse and a threaded MP7 muzzle. When the vast majority of surpressors are 14mm whoever a TM decided a 12mm thread was a good idea needs a slap.

 
Popped into LandWarrior Airsoft on the way home from work (just for a nosey really).

I hoped I might get a gas tube for my M16A3 but no luck so I bought an M-lok fore grip, seeing as I'd ordered a keymod one by mistake.

This longboi arrived today as I was fitting the aforementioned fore grip, courtesy of Austeyr, the bugger tempted me with sweeties & once I climbed into his van he sold me this S&T BAR.
