Bearpaw OTs-03 SVU steel version with realsteel 1P21:

 

 

 

That is aggressively good looking, didn't think I liked the Star Wars ideal of scope as long as shooter but works in my eyes

Retro ish build  

 

Seriously tempted to paint the handguard and stock on my two retro builds (TM M733 and neo-retro-ish MWS)

if you have a pair then surely there’s nothing more to think about 😛

CQB gun. Cyma m14, but with a TM m14 stock. Not 100% on the optic mount at the moment because I know the Laylax mount doesn't work well with the Cyma receiver (had to use it; outer barrel didn't work with the TM receiver) and ends up being off by a fraction of a degree, meaning you can never zero the scope properly. Currently using the G&P scope mount as I want a low profile mount, but if that doesn't work like the Laylax mount doesn't, I know my TM scope mount will work, it's just a bit higher up.

 

And no, I'm not joking. I will take this to CQB games

m14 and cqb in the same sentence is crazy 😂

I've taken a 1J VSR to CQB. I've also taken an SR-25 to CQB. Both with 3-9x50 scopes still on them.

 

This is an improvement!

Been posting these old photos (around 2010-12) on social media then remembered they've never been on here either, only Arnies back in the day.  The quality isn't a bug on the forum or anything, the images are just intrinsically that low resolution.

 

Couple of iterations of my 14.5" NGRS back when I had the King Arms CASV.  These days it has a carbon fibre handguard so it's just a tad lighter than the EGLM setup.

Brace yourselves for yet another generic M4 build. My first RIF, totally stock rifle covered in chinesium bits and bobs but I'm pretty happy with it to be honest! Just need to earn a bit of weathering on it now or maybe take a rattle can to it... if I dare

So I broke out the spray paint and started blasting…

 

TM M733 also painted but didn’t take a photo of that one.

[uncleanlatent]

Just picked up a Vortex strike eagle 1-6 LPVO for my HK416D NGRS. Zeroed for 30 meters and this thing makes me feel like I’m cheating! Would highly recommend.

What brand is this, or has this been custom built, as a few things look "off". 

[SeniorSpaz87]

Done a few projects in the meantime. First, I *finally* found a Kaiju; the gun that originally got me into new-gen KWAs before the seller backed out and I ended up buying my Black Cherry TK45 a few years back. Well, now I have the Kaiju as well after all these years. It was a store display model too so its like new, and the seller had a set of mags cerakoted to match, so I have the full set of 7. 

 

 

I have also worked out all the kinks on my converted APS CAM870 mk2. Mods include a bunch of dremelling to take a HPA tap, cutting through a QD sling point to route the line, two MatchSavers mounted to the side of the new Magpul handguard for quick topping off, some modifications to fit both a APS shell-catcher and top rail, a +1 printed mag tube extension, and some smaller bits and pieces scattered throughout. I also have been working with biodegradable filaments to print short-lifespan shotshells that can be fired and left behind; the bio PETG works decently but I want to try the algae-based PLA as well. Here it is in action:

 

 

 

And the tons of shells Ive been printing and testing:

My latest purchase to swap the MP5K with on my loadout. Plan on mounting a M600 scoutlight onto it as the G&P flashlight handguards are like hens teeth.

 

Just trying to decide whether to put optics on it, or leave it with the iron sights? Removed the flash hider and swapped out the M4 style buffer tube stock it came with which will end up for sale as it made it look too modern for me 

[Tooand]

My Specna Arms HK416

[Alimcd]

Picked up a WE Apache MP5k, I was not prepared for how tiny it is!

[alxndrhll]

Just had the PTW back from having a service and the finishing touches completed on a second upper. You might not like it, but this is what peak performance looks like.

So another British rifle added to the collection. 

To most its nothing special. 

"Just another M16vn"..... 

 

But here I have started to build a colt model 604. As issued to the British army in the late 60s, early 70s. 

Now the 604 is something of a Frankensteinian. It's neither a M16VN (XM16) or the later M16A1 (model 602).

 

Main differences are compared to either the xm16 (VN) or the 602 (M16A2). 

The 604 comprises of a xm16 stock with a pivoting sling mount. Not the static version fitted to the later model 602. 

It also sports a partial fence. 

The XM16 was known as a slab side, where the 602 was a Full Fence. 

It also comes with an A1 barrel but still uses the early 3 prong (duck bill) flash hider. 

The British version also came with just plain export markings, aswell as being painted black with a paint called Suncorite. 

 

Now mine is still a work in progress.

Ive had the markings filled. 

I'm still to source the correct rear sling mount, as well as the chromo smooth fake bolt. 

I then tried to replicate the suncurite paint best I could. As the real paint was just slapped on. I tried the same but in the pics looks smoother than it actually is. 

Only other thing is slings. 

Early version came with AR15 slings. But very quickly guys swapped these out for SLR slings. So will look at that in the future too. 

 

 

Next up. 

A British colt model 701. 

To most its just a M16A2.... 

It is, but not quite. 

Main difference being, the fire selection. 

The US issued A2 was colt model 702. 

Which externally are identical apart from the 702 was 3 round burst. Where the British issued 701 was full auto. 

 

Pictured here in use during OP barras in 2000. 

As far as I'm aware these where only purchased in small numbers, compared to the earlier colt model 715 (C7) which is still in wide use today.

 

With mine, I've replicated the correct export markings along with with the correct "auto" one. 

Upper is just a standard G&P upper with a real A2 handguard.

The rifle in the vid is the colt model 715. Later known as the C7. 

 

I built mine a few years ago with help from Jonathan ferguason. 

He's helped me out with my 604 too. 

Got another project he's helped with in the pipe line too haha. 

 

Just to bore you about hahaha. 

The 715 in the video is very unique. 

It has mainly A2 features. 

But the upper is odd. It has an A1 rear sight, but has a A2 brass deflector. 

Also another M16 A2 with the auto selection. 

Was originally bought by the sas, but is now in use with pathfinders, paras and royal marines. 

 

Here's the one I built while back.

Was more about the YT page content, he has several detailed video's regarding britains use & purchase of the AR15 series.

Yeah fair one.

Current pistol collection. A day off today so I though my I’d gather them all for posterity. I did manage to miss the Desert Eagle and Hi Capa 5.1, but you’ve all seen one of those…
