Pretty realistic, breaking down when it's most needed 👀

I thought it was the mag I'd bought used, wasn't until I got home and tested it plinking in the garden I realised what was wrong. I ended up using my L85A1 aeg instead, took my Scar-H too but couldn't be arsed lugging 7 gas mags around.

Just a 75mm barrel exension a guy can be proud of, I now have a wee pokey out thing where there used to be a chasm.

I have been eyeing to get a PKM for a while now. I saw they were discontinued for some time. SO I am very pleased I snatched this for new at an arguably low retail cost : )

My AK family got a little bigger this week thanks to ARC Fives

 

reposted as I'm a douche & put it in the wrong thread.

I’d be interested to hear about this, especially if it holds zero. Seen these myself and it always seems like a gamble.

All the ones I've tried have had really bad eye relief and piss poor shadowing from the tube on 4x. Personally I don't think that any of them are worth the weight.

Seems good so far, comparing it to a 5x magnifier I got off amazon its clearer and easier to see through, field test this weekend so hopefullly it does its job, optics are definatly hit and miss mind and the hits are normally 10x more expensive than the misses, not sure I can fork out over £1,000 for a proper one.

You always have to take into account an element of get what you pay for, I'm not expecting it to be the dogs bolex for the cost of it as long as it does a better job than the previous sight I'm happy, I've not got 20/20 vision anyway so some of the nuonces that other people pick up I miss.

I did wonder why you would paint a rs kac ras and noticed the clamp and screw was missing but for the price I had to have it. 

Not fully cleaned up yet but it's not looking to bad , need to find some ali black for the damage ( mind is boggled at how this happened)

I saw that advertised and was tempted to pop it on my ghk

A bit of unleaded will see that green paint off it no problem 👌

Following up on my PCC/PDW thread, the replacement gun arrived.

Which I promptly emptied and transferred the KA PDW parts into.

 

Now it looks something like this:

I bet at some point someone didn't have a tool to take off the barrel nut, so they just whacked the RAS with a hammer until it came loose.

Finally managed to get a retro MP5 PDW stock to swap out all the modern hideousness on my Cyma CM041L so it's gone from this monstrosity to this classic but with the amazing range and rate of fire 😁IMG_20240724_204634.jpg.1a633a7c8aff8f7cdb895a4769023e56.jpg

Please do tell where you found a classic style cocking lever - I've tried the guarder steel one [didn't fit] and the VFC one [was too big] and I'm completely at my wits end looking for one. It's to the point where I might even order the gopping modern styled one just to have one again (or, if you've still got it around, I'd be happy to take it off your hands for a few quid)

I'm begging at this point. Looks awesome, by the way.
