The 'What have you just bought' Thread

Cheap ex demo Cyma Platinum MP5 CM0.41K, longer hand guard of the one I already have, if it works I plan to either go full Die Hard replica or upgrade it similar to my MP5K PDW and add a longer internal barrel with suppressor outer so I can have a bit more range and accuracy. 

 

Theta Optics TO551 Red Dot to go on top of it.

 

Roll of camo wrap, 11.1v lipo and a bag of 0.28 BB's

 

Black t shirt, black thin tacticool long sleeve top and black jumper and an extra 2 x 130rd mid caps for evening indoor CQB

The stuff on it isn't new, but I figured I'd try one of these belt setups that velcro attaches onto a regular belt underneath. £20 on Aliexpress and so far I'm liking it. If I really like it, I may invest in a proper one, but for now this is fine and I will test it next weekend by using just it as a super lightweight setup. I should be able to carry everything I need for a game, but if not I can carry a small backpack with gas and BBs if needed. If anything I might remove the dump pouch if I don't end up using it.

 

It isn't as scrunched together when it's actually on me, due to angles.

Can you tell what I'm going for with this...?

 

I'll eventually get another XM177 to use as a DoE Colt SMG, need to source a deflector (that won't cost the earth in postage) & a straight MP5 mag.

 

Was impressed by the seller in HK making my UKARA very obvious & they listed the adaptor as a $10 toy.

No further questions.

 

Since Bill's letting the side down by selling guns, i had to pick up the slack and buy a (very nice) NGRS HK417 from the classifieds.

This was my first google find but I'm not keen on the design, I've ordered one from Bullseye Sports now.

I bought this at AP on Sunday, having admired it in the site shop for a while.  It is currently in bits on the work table and will soon have a new hop rubber and nub, a Perun Hybrid and 13:1 gears so that I can run it on a 2000mAh 7.4v battery that just about fits in the handguard.

The only good AR is a weird AR.

Could you not rear wire it into the buffer tube at all?

A Knock off B.A.D. Lever from Empire Airsoft. An original one will set you back about 40 notes but this little beauty was a penny shy of sixteen nicker. Postage bumped that up to 22 finest British pounds.

I had to shim it, with a bit of Monster can, and it works lovely.

Unfortunately not, because the buffer tube has a stonking great spring in it that extends the stock.  Most of the rest of the stock is taken up by various other gubbins as well.

So after deciding not to spend too much on the new 417 right away.. i bought a new inner barrel, a new M100 Spring, a scope, a bipod, and two 500mm pieces of raw ally bar/tube to make a silencer for it.

 

I can't be trusted with money.
