I've bought Shed Loads recently: Viper VX Buckle Up Plate Carrier (Gen2) - Black Viper VX Utility Chest Rig (Black) Viper VX (See a theme here?) Pistol mag insert Viper VX Pistol holster insert Viper Scrote Dangler (Black) Surefire XC-1 Torch Clone Nuprol Black cap UKARA Police Patches Delta Mike Facepro Snood (Grey) All of which you can see here: I’ve been eyeing up one of ‘Utility Rigs’ for a while as a cheaper option to throw a bunch of fake leaves and other random assorted shite onto with Shoe Goo (loved the D3CRM and Flatpack combo, didn’t have the heart to deface it). Don’t suppose you know how well the SMG inserts would work for pistol mag retention? The only thing that’s been putting me off is how shallow the pistol mag inserts seem to be, it’s weird that they’ve stitched the bottom... though I guess picking that stitching is another option to have them sit a bit deeper.

For all intents and purposes they are the same width, with each "Compartment" being the same. But the SMG inserts being open at the bottom allow the smg mags to sit further down into the pouch. I've got two of the Pistol mag inserts and they're good - retention is tight on the mag without being annoying and you can sit the insert down into the pouch quite far so only the baseplate sits proud of the pouch itself. Wouldn't worry about them falling out. alxndrhll 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't worry about them falling out. Much appreciated, for something that seems fairly popular there isn’t a huge amount of information about in terms of how ‘universal’ the pouches are. I’m probably just too precious about it but I’ve struggled to find universal things that give a level of retention I’m comfortable with when it comes to MK23 mags, but being able to ditch velcro and zips sounds like a winner. Sidenote, that UKARA Police patch is so obnoxious in the best way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MILITATED Posted September 16, 2020 Share Posted September 16, 2020 I bought a 5KU 7" MWS outer barrel (right) just over a month ago & it arrived today, only for me to realise it was slightly too short for my plans! Chopped my Jager Cave barrel (left) down instead (they are 14.5" originally). If anyone is looking for a 7" MWS outer barrel... 🤣 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I blame the internet. Looks like a tidy job on the other though 👌 MILITATED 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HuttArmouries Posted September 16, 2020 Share Posted September 16, 2020 Finally got one. Bought in pieces and now back together and working perfectly. Little bit of an airseal issue but nothing major. Definately need to find a proper flash hider for it though. Not really liking the look of that scar one on it but thats what it came with.

Cromulon1994 Posted September 16, 2020 Share Posted September 16, 2020 Acquired a pair of pistols recently. The bisley is the one @HELIflipper03 sold recently, though I got it off the guy who bought it from him. It's like new. Other is a western arms longslide that I was selling for a friend and just ended up with myself. Both will be skirmished and both shoot very nicely. In fact I'd forgotten how nice Tanakas revolvers are. Pappa Large and GeorgePlaysAirsoft 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asomodai Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 A new Helmet mounted adapter for the action cam. This one mounts from the bottom rather then the top so the camera stays out of my face! Also got a head strap system so I don't have to take a helmet everytime.

FreeFrag.UK Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 Not the most exciting thing but Dump Pouch arrived today. It's a little larger than I expected but it feels very robust I'm considering either a WAS Universal Holster or a specific one for my CZ-75. I'm a little conflicted at the moment on which route to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With little or no adjustment it'll fit most pistols and it feels completely secure. I also haven't had any issues with scarves from it, though you'll still probably get wear on a metal pistol.

ziCk_ Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 Apparently COVID-19 or really bad case of manflu. And I didn’t pay for it either - what a treat! Sending my home testing kit in to lab in couple of hours. other than that, PDW9 S3 in black and M300 torch ripoff from AliExpress as well as Arisaka-style 45degree M-LOK mount for the torch.

Where I play is all outdoors so it would be extremely unlikely (or unlucky) for someone to end up seriously affected but indoor sites, where build materials generally have an extremely low absorption coefficient and players would be in closer proximity to the device would be a ideal scenario for hearing loss or damage.
