Floperator Posted June 18, 2022 Share Posted June 18, 2022 Ended up buying another respirator case just for the molle mounted flap pouches on the side (2 flap pouches on their own were going to cost a £ more than a case with 2 pouches attached). If you haven't seen these they're great little all-purpose pouches that fold flat when empty and expand up and out when full. Easy big enough to get two lonex mags in and still velcro shut. Not sure what to do with the resulting spare satchel, it does fit nicely on the back panel of my chest rig but I don't think I need the storage.

bitofanidiot42 Posted June 20, 2022 Share Posted June 20, 2022 On my limited budget, I have bought a second hand Army R28 in two tone blue, hoping the cheap price won’t mean cheap QC. Only sign of wear is a tiny chip on the plastic grip. I could always upgrade it when I raise my budget, it’s TM compatible.

Supporters TheFull9 Posted June 20, 2022 Supporters Share Posted June 20, 2022 Given the price of parts individually vs in a whole gun I'd consider saving up enough to eventually buy a whole TM pistol; that's not even factoring in the propensity for various different brand bits to often not get along vs the high reliability probability of a simple factory build.

Dan Robinson Posted June 21, 2022 Share Posted June 21, 2022 (edited) Well after the fluid loss I suffered last weekend, i purchased myself a camelbak.... Going to take a fair bit of washing and disinfecting before I drink anything from it.

Dan Robinson Posted June 21, 2022 Share Posted June 21, 2022 I put a load of 1 litre bottles in the freezer to take with me last time, but the panic and rush of getting the lad sorted for his D of E expedition meant I forgot to take them. Ironically I was at Sentinel in Dunstable and his expedition site was less than 2 miles away, so there was no need to panic, nor get his mate's mum to take him.

I let it soak with a tablespoon of bleach filled with lukewarm water a good dozen rinses out after an overnight soak, likewise with the hose and bite valve and it’s good as new 😉 Dan Robinson 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stratton Oakmont Posted June 27, 2022 Share Posted June 27, 2022 Will do later, the cmore comes in a crappy cardboard box. The knockoff came in a half decent plastic case. For the price it seems to be the wrong way round Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stratton Oakmont Posted June 27, 2022 Share Posted June 27, 2022 (edited) Just zeroed both this evening. red dot, actually responds to turns of the screws with less sensitivity. The knock off moved with the slightest touch of the adjustment screw which meant you would get it zeroed and then when the lock screws were tightened it moved much brighter with a new battery, I’d guess almost twice as bright to my eyes than the knock off my red dot is the click adjust and I prefer it to the rheostat type on the knock off and my cheap version doesn’t actually fully turn off the glass is better/ clearer the scope is much clearer glass than the 1-8 vortex it replaced which is a bonus as I actually changed it because of the reticle plus the quick adjust locking caps are handy. better light gathering plus it’s a true 1x Edited June 27, 2022 by Stratton Oakmont JimFromHorsham 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alxndrhll Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 Arisaka indexer for the shorter upper, the BCM KAG never felt like it was quite in the right place on it. Early impressions are that this is exactly the right fit for that length of rail (for me at least). As to be expected the quality is superb, toying with trying the handstop on the long upper but ultimately there isn’t a huge amount wrong with what’s on there… I just like new things.
