AK47frizzle Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 PTS Rainier Arms mini comp for my SR-3M: Imo, looks cooler plus -100 grams off the weight of the gun (138g vs 38g woweeee). Already jagged myself a couple times. TheFull9 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muzzle velocity on 556 is a whole different league as you know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Lol, obviously I didn't mean it genuinely was a match for a 249, I meant it was a bit of a revelation in the "gangsta armoury", with its high ammo capacity & rate of fire.

hitmanNo2 Posted October 13, 2019 Share Posted October 13, 2019 Pretty sure no "gangsta" would have gotten a full auto Calico M960A due to NFA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been searching for the calico m1000 for a few years but only recently set up a contact in Japan who's willing to ship juicy things out. The calico is sat in customs while they figure how much lube they're going to use, and I found a goblin deuce as a bit of an impulse buy. The photos are from the guy that's sent it over from Osaka. I can't wait to actually have it. And it will be skirmished. Expand Can your man in Japan source any Western Arms Beretta 1934's?! Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EvilMonkee Posted October 14, 2019 Share Posted October 14, 2019 Been on a wee bit of a splurge. Tokyo Marui MWS and 3 extra mags Complete set of Irish Army camo - which is really expensive and rare as its illegal for anyone in Ireland to sell it or wear it unless in the Irish military. The Irish Government also holds the licence so only Arktis do any copies as they supply the Army Ranger Wg and its really expensive from them. £85 for a pair of trousers!! The smock I picked up is much much better than our issued British kit, waterproof lined from the get go. Wo1f 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skara Posted October 16, 2019 Share Posted October 16, 2019 Cytac molle adapter for my dtd. But guess what, it doesn't fit my Emerson belt because its molle is off spec on the sides (has small panels instead of a uninterrupted strip of nylon).. So I guess I'm going to sell the belt and look for another one -.- Or I could mod the adapter, cheaper and easier option really.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is kinda why I vowed to stay away from replica gear for the most part. You spend your money, and you get something that's either out of spec from the word go, or lasts about a month, and then you buy another. Cheaper genuine gear will usually trump cheaper replicas trying to be gucci bits of kit. You might spend a little more, say £45 vs £20, but if you're only buying it once, it's worth it.

Expand Everything I have on that belt (apart from 2 pouches) is RS btw xD Since I'm ignorant and uneducated, I just zip tied the adapter onto the belt problem solved, and when I finally find a decent real steel belt that fits my needs, I will still have an unmodded adapter to use Sawyer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
