Lol, my "smiley" was meant to indicate my sarcasm, like bullpups but not a great fan of the p90, prob due to the standard style mags.

thinking about it though, magpul pdr-c with electric m4 box mag, I've got one & it's pocket size literally, & very well balanced for one handed use, can't believe that I'd forgotten about this one.

And was duly noted ! Even in jest those M4 abominations on P90’s give me an attack of the vapors ! :o     :D

Interesting.... Have you any pics by any chance?

Gears all packed away at the mo, but plenty of pics of pdr-c's out there.

but rocketdogberts set up could be made to work with anything, set up any aeg/aep mag to feed from a remote mag & your sorted, just comes down to what's comfortable to aim.

you could do it to work with an assortment of mags by utilising a quick change connection, would give you loads of choice & you'd only have to own/butcher 1 lo cap of any of the gun series .

Yep, got a q/r on the Bowden tube as well as the normal one on the HPA line

That looks awesome!

But how does it actually work?

And what's a Bowden tube? I thought they were for 3d printing?

HPA as normal, Bowden tube/cable is basically a very long spring, in this case internal diameter 6mm. I put heat shrink around it to keep it stable, looks like this bare

Looks very impressive! How do you carry it all?

And how much does it weigh?

HPA has a molle pouch, CA remote mag has a molle pouch, both are on a molle cummerbund at present, but will just as easily fit on anything else tbh.

You can see them both in the first pic I posted.

I haven’t weighed it, HPA kit is maybe 2-3kgs, CA mag is negligible. 

I only target shoot or practical pistol so never going to be an issue for me.

I popped in to Urban airsoft, cos it's my local.
I got to shoulder:
Aug Steyr commando / 1 / 2 / 3
Firehawk
Krytac Vector

Evo

G&G Mp5 a3 ( I think)
Out of all of them, the Evo felt the best. But at £400 for the gun, hicap, batteries and charger, I balked.

And tis just as well, cos my left arm is very fatigued - just with playing around holding em for an hour.
I think I'm going to have to wait and see what the doc says before I go spending any dosh.

Except for maybe a carbine kit for the MK23.

Now on to load out advice.
I think I'm going to run with - 
Mk23 carbine conversion w 3+1 mags
G18C side arm w 2+ 1 mags
TM XXL Speedloader
Gas bottle (not sure how to carry this).

Normally I have a viper spec ops chest rig ( http://www.military1st.co.uk/bvchrigsopsblk-viper-special-ops-chest-rig-black.html ) and belt holster - but I don't think this will work very well - especially with taking the rucksack on and off.
I'm thinking some kind of belt, but not sure how it would all fit.

What's the best way to carry that lot?
