The 'What have you just bought' Thread

Decided my VFC AK74M really needed an optic with the same Rusky vibe. (Ignore that it's a Belarusian copy).

Less of the peer pressure lol.

A gnatty little RS Arisaka hand stop for my OSW

I'd like to make a formal-ish complaint... Austeyr has been tempting me with wooden things, I wouldn't usually mind but I've NO will power.

 

There's a reason I'm FAT.

I got a lightweight MWS bolt/carrier group for my Noveske N4 in anticipation of the winter, before the rat race starts with people doing the same.

[Lyndication]

Got one of these to saw up for an AK74M handguard and the butt of a post apoc double barrel shotgun. 

 

A wee choccy biccie for anyone who can guess the video game the build is based on.

Been in a bit of a shotgun phase of late, so treated myself to an CAM870 off this very forum then swapped out the furniture. Complete faff to load and use but god is it cool.

Give explosive enterprises you tube video on the CAM 870 a watch. Very useful.

That's the one! Basing it on the AK from Last Light.

 

Friend is refinishing it right now to make it look more weathered.

 

One day I wanna build the Duplet from the games but that requires tools I don't have yet.

Went a bit mad this week. 

Started with a used from the classifieds here WE Apache MP5 with the fixed/sliding stock and the A2/flash light hand guard and 3x 45 rd mags. When I picked it up I was offered a WE Sig 226 for a great price so picked that up as well.
 

Later in the week I passed Patrol Base to pick up a battery and BB’s and while wondering around the shop decided the MP5 needed a suppressor, modern hand guard, foregrip and another suppressor. 
 

Looking forward to using it on Sunday, just need to have a play around and set it up.  
 

Very happy I now have the MP5 look from Die Hard and all the other 80’s action films but I’m not looking at the classifieds for a couple of months.!!!!!

 

Nice buy. I came on to find this to buy as I see it didn't sell. :)

Sounds like a perfect excuse to buy more tools. 👌🏻

Haven't got the space for a lathe sadly, as much as I'd like one.

Cheeky little myford super 7 is about the size of a computer desk and perfect for small finicky airsoft bits...

Treated myself to some EGs. 

Also treated myself to some other EGs.

That's grand, I don't have space for a computer desk in my wee flat.

I'm looking at lathing barrels and such anyhow 

[mightyjebus]

Cheeky little PMAG which is actually a USB battery pack. Takes up to 3 18650 batteries and powers my fan glasses easily. You can fit a couple of 5.56 rounds in the top as well if you want it to look more legit.

Time to upgrade the flat or get a sofa bed...

 

Long bed version can work material up to 779mm long, plenty big enough for any airsoft barrel 😉

Once you buy a lathe you'll find space. 😛

 

 

Both need to be sold some time as i need bigger machines.

[ButcherBill]

Not as fancy as a lathe but this arrived in the post today.

An S&T 1903A3 listed as a wall hanger as it slamfires, as wallhanger is fine by me it'll be hanging on my wall.

 

p.s. the grib wall is new too but I meant to order the chrome instead, hey... ho!
