Couldn't be any more pleased with this order from Patrol Base, despite it being two tone green I love the look of the gun, my road to UKARA will soon begin, couldn't say anything bad about Patrol Base great gun, great service, hope you all had a good weekend and have a good day

To be fair, PatrolBase two toned an SLR.

 

However, commissioning a crime should have the same sentence as carrying it out.

Glad you're happy but... I just can't understand spending so much money on a two tone rather than waiting a bit to get UKARA registered?!?!?!?!

A good point mate, the only reason being have played many airsoft games on and off but life was too busy to play so many games in a length of time, now with life so busy and knowing the Ares l1a1 was avalible on Patrol Base, I just went for it, as won't stay too toned for long once I get my UKARA

If you have proof of you playing multiple games at different sites that is a defence you don't have to have ukara.its just very useful to have.

I bought one myself a while back and just like Inked Airsofter i don't hold a UKARA so I bought the wood kit as I used both back in the day.

 

But what do you know when the SLR arrived it was all black!! ? Turned out they'd (who will be unnamed ) had forgotten to paint it. Even though they had taken the payment. So I'm not complaining.

 

I've not fired it in anger as it's on display at the moment. May fit the wood kit at some point. Beautiful bit of kit. I'm now on the lookout for a SUIT Sight but they are impossible to find ?

You lucky man ?? I wish they would have done that with me, but yeah they are very hard to come buy indeed, I'm trying to find a muzzle break (a specific type of looking one ?) for my Ares and it is coming to the point where I should maybe make one ? if I see a suit sight about I'll be sure to contact you, I'll keep my eye out ?

Thought I'd put up a picture of SLR. Not sure about the wood furniture so i replaced the polymer. I think the wood needs to be slightly darker and maybe a slight varnish.

I'd oil it rather than varnish it.

Oil has some advantages in a working gun. The finish doesn't chip, It can be restored with a quick rub down. It gives a decent water protection. A layer of wax over an oiled finish can make it a gloss finish if you want.
