The 'What have you just bought' Thread

[MILITATED]

Got my hands on a Desert Eagle L6, absolute monstrosity 🤣 I'd like to get some Hogue grips for it 

 

Also finally got my genuine Strike Industries Gridlok after all these months!

A GSR replica from airsoft world. All I can think say is that if you're thinking of getting one don't bother, they're shit. When trying to change the mesh for the clear lenses one of the screws holding the mesh mask in place refused to budge and rounded off the supplied hex key. Next one of the rubber bits connected to the straps tore off whilst I was wearing it. All in all it's a piece of crap and will be going back

I’ve started something loud and obnoxious

A "Rossi" VSR type sniper rifle bought from the classifieds, my first dip of a toe into the bolt-action waters... good fun plinking in the garden at least!
And I enjoyed doing the faux multicam rattle-can job on the stock, I think it came out reasonably well.  I used a bit of camo net as the stencil.

And I just picked up a set of Viper multicam trousers, t-shirt and hoodie for a very low price from Action Hobbies - supporting my local retailer, one bargain at a time!

 

Apart from exotic stuff like Lee Enfields, SLRs,  and maybe another HPA gun,  my main hankering now is for a cheap H&K MP5, or a G36K.    But perhaps I ought to actually go skirmishing...?

Not the most thrilling of purchases, but you can't play without them; some Geoff's Super Naturals in .25 and .3, and a new set of Bloc eyepro to see if they really are a fog-free solution for sweat monsters.

New gun needs a new holster

Also a sweat monster, let us know how they hold up, most reviews I've seen are affiliated.

Exactly why I'm sceptical, but we'll see. I'll let you know after the weekend pal.

Deserves a build thread 👌

[Dentonboy]

Finally bought myself a TM Desert Eagle HK GBB.

 

Was on Action Hobbies, in unused condition with a spare magazine for £80 so thought it rude not to. 

[alxndrhll]

A few bits ready for GC, y’know that moment you buy something knowing you’ll never use again. Yeah, that. 😂

 

 

[Cocha]

Today I (almost) finished building this ❤️ 

 

 

 

Just missing the angled grip and I call done for now.

Baja hoodie are great for playing in.

Ordered a bunch of parts for my tac 41. Should have had them two days ago but instead of actually delivering it the DPD driver instead just put a blank "you weren't in" card through the door so now I need to go back to the shop to get the tracking number so that I can contact DPD and get it redelivered. Honestly ridiculous

[Speedbird_666]

So I picked up a very cheap brand new ICS MP5 off these here forums - just because I've never owned an MP5 in the last 16 or so years I've been playing:

(Needed a 2 minute solder job on the torch wiring and is now working lovely)

 

Been buying bits of kit off AliExpress lately - namely a Spiritus 'Thing 2' clone for my cheapo Viper VX chest rig which arrived a couple of weeks ago, and yesterday a zipper top for the front rig pouch, a velcro admin pouch and a velcro vented pad.

 

 

Gotta say, everything I've been ordering from AliExpress lately has been arriving in about 10 days, and the quality of the kit is more than good enough for LARPsoft or BBWarz.

So,

Ive been searching for a decent kit bag after lusting after the 5.11 CAMS , but no danger can I justify the price for the real thing

So a few days after searching, a faceache advert popped up for a Chinese seller “Ali Express” style

bit the bullet and ordered one of these

Looks like they are using genuine 5.11 catalog pics for their advert

will be interesting to see what turns up 😂

As an absolute kit whore, I'm really interested in what you're going to get 🤷‍♂️

Will do….

it’s taken a week to leave China, having now just departed and is traceable on Royal Mails system

I’m guessing a week or so to arrive

I hope it’s full size and not a miniature that’d do for my old Action Man stashed in the attic

But for £25, who knows .

We have traveled over that way a good few times and bought several “looky-looky” items

New sellers seem to start off with sensible local pricing until they realise just how much the tourists are willing to pay, then prices get ramped up!! 
Only time will tell 😁

Picked up an auction lot of airsoft guns from what seems to have been a collector. Not a mark on any of them. All pristine condition and i am so damn excited for some of these.
