Impulse Posted September 28, 2020 Posted September 28, 2020 Since I have my first, lightweight ghillie suit done, I'm going to visit that leaf suit I bought that has been in my wardrobe for about a year now, as well as making a proper rifle ghillie for my VSR. If I have anything left over, I'll use the OTHER webtex concealment vest I have (I bought one too many) and make a leafy cloak thing as a lightweight alternative to my already relatively lightweight ghillie.
Stevobeavo Posted September 28, 2020 Posted September 28, 2020 Nothing too exciting. But I bought myself a viper tactical plate carrier, lipo batter and charger and some better BBS. Supplied by Crawley surplus. Great bunch of guys and really helpful
Skara Posted September 28, 2020 Posted September 28, 2020 SHS set from Pete acquired, now I can turn my ARP-9 into a proper wanker gun ❤️ In addition, I just bought an Airtech Studios hair trigger thingamajig for the G&G ETU which shortens the wank pull from the current 65 light years to roughly 2mm. Next is a drop stock. Alimcd, ziCk_ and Pappa Large 2 1

I've got mine couple of days ago from BespokeAirsoft, just unpacked this bad boy and holy shit does it feel like a toy - literally no weight to it. Don't get me wrong though, it's GREAT!

Ta for mentioning this, I’ll go ahead and add that to the ‘impulse purchase’ list. I suspect I’ll be parting with some existing pistols before long. Picked up some of the Viper VX bits a few weeks back and have been sticking various bits of foliage to it since(once I’ve had the time to do the backpack I’ll likely give the shiny green fake leaves a dusting of brown paint). Using the quad SMG insert for the Mk23 mags works a treat, I’ve got a pair of the holster inserts arriving tomorrow which should serve as decent SRS mag pouches (currently using the single mag sleeves, they’re a little too tight). And treated the SRS to a new scope.

Fucking finally found a stubby M4 fixed stock with the fucking door! €24 posted from a San Marino retailer! Now, onto yet another handguard for the ARP-9... Congrats - I know you was after one, bit rare like hens teeth they are (especially the stubby ones) Not all of them come with the fixed stock ring... some do - quite a few don't, easy to grab a cheap plastic M4 stock ring and chop it up (can hack a metal stock ring up but a lot more work) but think you needed the back mostly for the opening door on ICS so no biggy, but you got the back you wanted and the option of stubby or full stock now (if I'm correct it was for the ICS M4 & don't need the fixed stock ring on ICS I think) Bolt lengths are a little different - shorter bolt on ICS coz of stock tube thingy than into spring guide so the full size fixed stock m5 bolt may be about 20mm to 1 inch or 25.4mm too long Guess you could shove the full stock with closed back on a M4/SR25 DMR setup if you wanted (or keep it as spare as it took so long to find something) But yeah fixed stocks, seemed to have fizzled out & a little tricky to source for a couple of years well done anyway
Nick G Posted October 1, 2020 Posted October 1, 2020 Double Bell KAR98 . I'll never skirmish it 'cos I'd spend more time looking for the brass than actually shooting it ? However for garden use it's very cool the whole shell loading and ejection thing is very satisfying and the real wood is pretty decent for the money. Airsoft_Mr B 1

Either way, what do you need a manual for!?
MiK Posted October 2, 2020 Posted October 2, 2020 @Cr0-Magnon it’s all black and I’m a little freaky/ocd over having manuals for stuff
Jaylordofwaargh Posted October 2, 2020 Posted October 2, 2020 I have bought <ginnie-aladdin-unlimited-cosmic-power.gif> a Titan brick and charger! Reports on how that goes next week at Ambush (near Southampton) New Kombat uk patrol boots and a vertical grip finish my splurge.
Smiling-Dutchman Posted October 2, 2020 Posted October 2, 2020 Just got my Tippman/Odin M4/M16 speedloader in the mail. quickly tested it out on some mags and it works so much better than the el-cheapo Nuprol one I had before. 2,5 times the price, but at least I can have faith this will keep working, and working well, for some time to come Barny 1
