The 'What have you just bought' Thread

Got a Romeo 2 off here and fitted it to the sand viper tonight along with a flamingo rubber. Decided to go with the full length shroud and waterproof extension now the weather's taking a turn for the worse.

Another SRC USP, this time the Tactical because I didn't learn from the one on top (broken slide stop and trigger)

Put a 1913 adaptor on the 74u to make the Moscow mac 10

All of the Airsoft under folders are terrible because of how little support the under folder actually has. Unlike the real thing which is a full on bar (I believe, been a while since I’ve had a real steel under folder in front of me) it gets really weak over time and will end up failing. The GHK is probably the only reliable under folder (but still suffers the same issues) but also the most unreliable internals unless you win the GHK lottery

 

TL;DR you got a much better deal lol

Wire stock goes so much harder anyway

[Johndaniel4863]

Definently 100% ordered my LAST two AKs, two AK47 with milled style lower receivers and not AKM hopefully they will be decent when they arrive! Then should have matching AKs from each generation with either full or folding stocks from AK47 to AK12

it's a slippery slope, before you know it you will be making 4 AK74's with wooden furniture with the 4 different wood types issued over the years or making sure the AIMS side folder has the correct lever or button to fold depending on which version you want to model.

I am already falling down that path which is why I am going to try and maintain self control.....

Funnily enough... I'm not an AK fanboi but I bought one so I had 'an' AK in my collection... I now have 9ish**

 

**if you count the dragunov, SVU & the AKM Masada. yeah kinda spurious but the point is it's more than 1

While we're on the subject of aks.

i recently picked up this £100 arcturus pp-19 from the classifieds which now bring my ruskie weapons count to 9 🤣

I've been tempted to put a Russian kit together myself, because EMR + smersh (also in EMR) is a vibe.

 

Don't have many Russian weapons though (I don't like AEGs or HPA that isn't fully self-contained, and I'm not shelling out on a WE SVD) so I would probably need to modernise my AKM, without totally changing the structure so I can return to old-fashioned if I need to. But I have to be really tight with money at the moment (want to buy a car ideally before Christmas and also max out my lifetime ISA limit for this financial year before April), but I've been browsing HK stores for TM AKM GBBR modernisation parts. I did resist the temptation to spend a couple hundred on a stock, picatinny handguard and a front grip.

 

I swear, browsing those shops is a dangerous thing...
