The 'What have you just bought' Thread

[Alex The Destroyer]

Let me know how you get on with this please!!

At the start it is going around 100ish feet without the hop beded which is pretty good! I will be skirmishing it on the 7th so i will let you know how i get on.

TM M870... not sure why I want one, but I do. So I bought one.

Hopefully all the stuff I just put up for sale goes quick or I'm gonna be in the doghouse with the Mrs!

I would be wary about it,there was a recall in Japan for one issue related to the 6 shot mode jamming the cocking mech on some models.

 

[jcheeseright]

yeah I saw that, if all else fails it comes with a warranty from the retailer.

Who are you getting your lenses from, Suz?

I'm getting them from www.ciliaryblue.com

It's costing me £50. The lenses would normally be £40 but my eyes are pretty bad and need strong lenses. I got a pair of Viper tactical glasses and i'm going to see how it goes but I think in the long run i'll get the Revision Sawfly and get prescription lenses for those as they fog less. Ciliary Blue can also add anti fog coating to the lenses they make for you!

EDIT: Those are thin lenses too!

Tan Grip-Pod for a tenner and a lightstick at 50p from Patrol Base.

TMC 4x Pistol Mag / Utility Pouch, a fiver.

5.56 Magpul - one quid.

Both from the Bring 'N' Buy sale at Halo Mill

Thanks mate. Unfortunately they only do varifocals, which i need, if you've had them before and can send your old pair. I need varifocals but i haven't bothered to get any yet!

TM VSR 10 Mag from AirsoftEire,17€.

Much better than those shitty ACM mags I had.

 

[Bottledtorment]

A OD Tac vest £39.99 (JD airsoft)

And a Umarex G36 Kv from stealthyairsoft £185

all in all

 

[Detox]

I bought this, inert schermuly flare tube (I have a strange thing for flares & Illumination gear). Quite useful as I can put things in there too, BB storage and the like.

 

[Hubert]

£5 for a second-hand (but near mint condition) PEQ-styled battery box. Looks awesome on the L85.

£5 for NIB goggles. They fit right over my glasses, and work better than my shooting glasses.

Bit peeved I couldn't shift my G36 at Halo Mill's bring and buy though...

 

[Ian_Gere]

Shouldn't have spent this money but I couldn't resist:

Vintage Soviet Flashlight

Vintage Soviet Pistol Lanyard

£12.60 for both delivered - from someone on Etsy​

 

[PT247]

Am just piecing together a winter load out (yes I realise it is summer still), going Luke Skywalker Hoth stylee, have ordered pretty much everything I need for it, will probs have to make some minor changes to get the look right. Think I'll leave the Tauntaun in the stable tho!

 

[Sam_G]

That could be EPIC!!

anything star wars is a win for me!!

 

[Mike1971]

recentley bought

1. Disciple base ball cap in multicam, as my issue bush hat need tailoring and i can't be bothered.
2. crusader cooker that fits around my '58 water bottle £19 was a good investment
3. Green fuel sachets 12 for £6 burns with a near invisible flame and non-toxic unlike hexi.
4. £50 to have my old shortback begen tailored with MOLLE straps, sternum strap, better back padding and a extra pouch on the lid.
5. 2 inova LED lights £9 each one red one blue.
6. Disciple multicam leg panel and a blackhawk pistol holster £25 ebay
7. 2 pistol mag pouches free from the CQMS
8. 3 osprey MKiv UGL pouches free from the CQMS( these are bigger than the issue utility pouch and have a velcro divider so more places to stash kit).
9. Camtech camcream £6 better than the issue stuff which gives you zits!
10. 6 tubes of ultrathon insect repelant Free from the CQMS.

Ok the stuff from the CQMS cost me 6 Cans of beer but it was a fair exchange.

 

[WorcesterAirsoftRegiment1]

Just acquired an S-10 Respirator (needs the lenses converting to airsoft friendly lenses), but my SAS-style loadout is coming along now! ^_^

 

[PT247]

you'll want to put some venting in it, S10s are horrid sweaty things even stationary, let alone running about!

 

[jcheeseright]

Indeed, rip the insides out of the canister and take out the non return valve from the other side too, they're horrid bits of kit and I'm glad they're being replaced (even if I did have to shave off my beard to get fitted for the GSR).

 

[Ian_Gere]

Weeeeeellllllllll... S10's are sweaty bastards certainly, but let's have it right, the way that the air circulates inside them with each breath, as it is designed to, stops the lenses from fogging much / at all. Who knows if that will still work properly if you mess with it?

I haven't got around to it yet, but I definitely intend to take the innards out of a filter for mine sometime. Breathing through a proper filter takes some practice when you're running about - deep and steady gets you more oxygen than trying to gasp.

I had a look for my receipt for ballistic replacement lenses, so i could pass on the seller to you, but unfortunately it's another victim of early onset dementia, otherwise known as i couldn't fcuking remember where i've left my arse if i didn't have to wipe it periodically...

 

[PT247]

what is wrong with the std lenses on the S10? We wear them firing real guns so surely they are decent protection still?
