Popular Post JinxDuh Posted September 24, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted September 24, 2023 After being too impatient to wait to find a specna, I opted for the S&T G36V with the grenade launcher (Because why not?). Changed out the launcher with the mg handguard, put a ZCI dual optic on (After a lot of sanding down, it doesn't fit directly onto the S&T) and can now call the MG36 done.

MrTea Posted September 26, 2023 Share Posted September 26, 2023 (edited) Nothing too exciting just some ludicrously expensive, and hard to find, bits of plastic. What with the shortage of "heavy" BBs? Edited September 26, 2023 by MrTea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chev Chelios Posted September 27, 2023 Share Posted September 27, 2023 Got me some stickers and some Plasti Dip for the tired pick and pluck foam in my gun case.

It's a bit tight on me (must have shrunk in the wash) but should be easy to get altered so I have room to breath or even move. Feel the need for either another water bottle pouch or 2, and possibly an e-tool pouch, there doesn't seem to be a huge selection of pouches available for this or info about them, a couple of yt vids is pretty much all I could find. If anyone has more info about this PLCE please let me know. I've had a set of this for years and years. I actually have two large packs for mine and thus equipped use it for hiking/camping etc. You need to get the inner, padded hip belt to make it comfy. The plastic tags inside will hurt like billy-o otherwise after a days game especially if it's a touch loose. I scavenged my extra pouches from a set in Hooper's Surplus in Norwich. They are very helpful, give them a call and see what they have left. Flecktarn UK also had a decent selection of bits, but these are no longer sold by the German govt. as they feared the diplomatic fallout from Kurdish militias buying them and issuing them as kit. A German filmsim team snap up what appears on E-Bay quite often, but dig and bits can be found. gavinkempsell 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gavinkempsell Posted September 28, 2023 Share Posted September 28, 2023 That would explain why there doesn't seem to much kit for sale, I'm prob more surprised with the lack of modularity... not a huge amount of info on it, whereas there's a ton of info about other nations kit.

Classic choice would be a slightly longer inner barrel, hadron designs TDC, I/H plate, and a chopped down suppressor. All somewhat unnecessary of course (especially as you've gone for the excellent TM original), but fun to tinker...! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My local RFD sells the upgraded mk23, which was in stock a short while back, but was still saving up and since sold out of both the upgraded model and the parts. I'm not sniping or running DMR, so will see how things go as I use my M4 as main weapon, but like to sit in ambush, so want something I can do sneaky shots with and hope they think it's a sniper further away, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gavinkempsell Posted October 2, 2023 Share Posted October 2, 2023 (edited) Yup, it's exactly what it looks like... Got an odd idea to mould it to the various DPM shapes (copying my windproof smock), rattlecan a black base, cover the black pattern, rattlecan brown, cover etc, etc, etc. Wish me luck. Gonna try it on a two tone M82, if it's a success a two tone G36C is next. Edited October 2, 2023 by gavinkempsell Tactical Pith Helmet 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Impulse Posted October 3, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted October 3, 2023 New pistol courtesy of @TheFull9 because 1911s are my kryptonite. Cycles beautifully and in my room easily gets through an entire mag on a single fill. I have swapped out the hop unit and barrel assembly for the setup that was in my other 1911 that hates cycling (ML hop unit with a nineball barrel and ML 50 degree autobot rubber and ML I-key) and will give it a run this weekend. If it runs well, I'll be running it more often because very few people run 1911s and they're incredibly beautiful pistols! Some things never change. My first loadout was an m14 and 1911 because I watched Black Hawk Down as a teenager and thought that one scene was amazing. Still running m14s (I own 2 and want to get a 3rd) and will still run 1911s TheFull9, JimFromHorsham, Convert and 4 others 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacob Wright Posted October 4, 2023 Share Posted October 4, 2023 New shadow foam so that I can fit both rifles into my Peli case, Maple Leaf hop rubber and nub to see how they run in the recoil MK18 .. and I think that’s it actually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
