The_Lord_Poncho Posted June 4 Share Posted June 4 Just a rather nicely made chest rig off Aliexpress - in my favourite Tigerstripe! Good to see more things these days available in it. gavinkempsell, Enid_Puceflange and GothicGhost 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post RostokMcSpoons Posted June 4 Popular Post Share Posted June 4 (edited) Well, just cos I'm not supposed to do any exercise while my knee(s) get sorted, doesn't mean I can't exercise my digits and purchase some airsoft kit, does it? So I've snaffled a couple of good things from the Action Hobbies boneyard... a large hard case for the princely sum of £12 (it's a bit tired and shabby, but it'll still do the job), and something I've wanted for a while.... an SLR! Well, a FAL. Well, a FAL carbine. But it's still a thing of beauty all the same 😍 A JG 3000 SA/LK 58 with 4 (count 'em) hi-cap mags. And it's been upgraded... a high rate-of-fire compared to my other JG guns, even on a 7.4v. It's allegedly got a Gate Aster hidden inside. But.. yeah, it's a boneyard gun - so it's not perfect - 2 of the hi-cap mags seem a bit buggered so they'll be conjoined into a single working (hopefully), and more importantly the single shot mode is a bit iffy. It's usually fine, but every now and again it won't fully cycle. Still shoots on the next trigger pull. Maybe the Aster wasn't quite set up properly? I'll set up a new thread for tech advice on that. In the meantime I just love the heft of this (metal receiver), and the look of it of course Edited June 4 by RostokMcSpoons Algy, Nick G, gavinkempsell and 2 others 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry (Not sorry ;)) And just to taunt you a tiny bit further, it does look really cool with a barrel extension on it, to make it more SLR'y. I stuck my Acetech Blaster C tracer on the end of that, lobbed an 11.1v battery in, and even with non-tracer ammo it made a very pretty light show in the dark, with an insane rate of fire. I can see why AH said to use a 7.4v, the battery got warm after just a few bursts. I've no idea how long this thing will hold together, and whether it's actually any good past 15m, but so far it's been fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spartan09 Posted June 5 Share Posted June 5 (edited) Was out in Athens the past week with my father for a memorial service for my great grandfather and the crew of his submarine, but I had a few days spare either side so in addition to the usual touristy bits, and needing a bit of an airsoft fix, I went out to Greek Airsoft in Achilleos for a bit of a browse and a chat (curious how greek airsoft compared to UK) and then, because i love more unusual things in airsoft.... I decided to buy myself some new gear in Greek Lizard camo...

Popular Post gavinkempsell Posted June 5 Popular Post Share Posted June 5 (edited) Had a couple of deliveries today, type89 aeg from lymorejosh & a G36K from Daro198 , Royal Mail knocked it out the park as the type89 was only posted yesterday. The UGL I bought last month from JinxDuh but it bothered me that I only had a G36C to put it on so a G36K has been on the cards since the UGL arrived.

MrTea Posted June 6 Share Posted June 6 (edited) Nothing too exciting but I wanted to give a shout out to CMAirsoft. They have 20% off site-wide sale and I was due a restock anyway so I spent a bit of cash. A day or two later I get an email saying that they're sorry but one of the owners is away on holiday and they can't process the order until he's back. They couldn't apologise enough and were ready to refund the order. I wasn't that bothered about waiting so I told them to leave it and just dispatch it when they could. The package arrives today and I find that they've given me a bottle of 0.32g and 0.25g BBs, a rifle sock and two lollies for free The sale is still live at the time of writing so go snag yourself some consumables with a decent chunk of change off.

DyLaNOfKippax Posted June 6 Share Posted June 6 Silverback Tac-41 lite Complete impulse buy. I am tempted to make it in to a pirate hand cannon since it weighs nothing and I can remove the barrel and stock 😅 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gavinkempsell Posted June 10 Share Posted June 10 (edited) Ordered a UCP/ACU Rifleman set from the US on the 30th & it arrived today, bought the Large rucksack at the same time from Germany & it arrived a couple of days ago, still waiting on the TAP setup from the same supplier in Germany with a selection of pouches to go with it. Postage was a bummer but after doing my sums it was a bit cheaper buying from the US, mainly because the assault pack seems a bit expensive in Germany. It's ridiculous how satisfying I find sorting out molle. FYI, for my fellow big chaps & chappettes... IT FITS my fat gut & I can wear it in game.

Skara Posted June 11 Share Posted June 11 Just picked up two Helikon Tex GPS pouches, one in Ral 7013 and one in DNC. Then realized Skirmshop had some of the newer TTI parts in stock so I bought: 2x TTI Npas valves for the AAP-01; 2x TTI AAP-01 piston heads; 2x CowCow firing pin lock thingies; 1x TTI fixed Glock outer barrel (14mm CCW thread).

Egon_247 Posted June 12 Share Posted June 12 I just bought @HuttArmouries cyma cm356 springer shotty. (That was close, autocorrect had fun there!!) I've not had a tri shot before and I have to say, it's really silly. 🤣🤣 Love it. Can't wait to use it on some unsuspecting 'softer. 😁 gavinkempsell and HuttArmouries 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spartan09 Posted June 13 Share Posted June 13 Bought a few things the past couple of weeks... Firstly, a new gun.... TTI TP22 pistol.. Also bought a maple leaf hop unit and modify inner barrel to give my EMG John Wick hicapa a well deserved overhaul and upgrade after several years of quite heavy use Next, I bought a double ammo pouch and "field pack" from my local army surplus shop. The double pouch just holds the cassette mags for my VFC M249, and the field pack will be used to replace the ammo grab bag I currently use to take gas and bb bottles to a respawn point, as the grab bag is a little too small for my needs Finally, i jave some bits on order from WGC shop, so no pics yet.... bought a para stock, pack of mags and a CO2 power source box mag for my VFC M249... pics will follow when the parcel arrives (assuming the customs monkeys don't fuck things up again) pyromancer6 and gavinkempsell 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fatboy40 Posted June 15 Share Posted June 15 I got distracted buying a pistol speed loader and bought two CTM TAC Magazine Extension Plate's for my AAP-01... https://i.imgur.com/ESj7Kpy.jpg ... as I liked the thought of more gas in the mag and a few more BB's. Pretty simple to install... https://i.imgur.com/p712x6p.jpg ... and look good... https://i.imgur.com/DLW0z7y.jpg ... but don't work with the Action Army flared magwell which I had to remove As expected the extra gas made the pistol too hot and added around 0.17J over my usual power using Nuprol 3.0, all good though on Nuprol 2.0. gavinkempsell and Egon_247 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
