The 'What have you just bought' Thread

[C-Diddy]

Finally got round to picking up a Chicom chest rig for a merc/generic bad guy loadout I'm slowly putting together. £13 well spent and from order to delivery in under 24 hours. Fair play flecktarn.co.uk

Got the same one from Flecktarn last month. It's really not that bad at all! Need to get it washed out a bit.

Mechanix Mpact Gloves. Needed something with protection and light (Thin) to replace my Under Armor tactical duties.

For £13 it's great! Few spins through the washing machine and being left in sunlight will do wonders I imagine. And there's always actually using stuff to give it that worn-in look too ?

I pretty much bankrupted myself yesterday....

 

Went to Onlyairsoft in stevenage and bought the following;

 

- S&T Lee-Enfield

- box of TAG smoke grenades

- several bottles of Valkyrie BBs.  .32, .28, and some. 25 tracers

 

I also bought a spare mag for the Lee enfield from wolf armouries

Come from half way around the world. And although that in itself is amazing this is the most underwhelming airsoft related parcel I think I’ve ever ordered.

Can I up the ante a bit?

 

Because I have the impulse control of a 7 year old, I’ve got one of these on the way

It’s called the B-team and I couldn’t resist it. Mine will look a bit like this

Have a look on YouTube at how sweet that stock’s action is tho. The thing that pushed me over the edge was the name, I’m going to be a low cost cosplay version of Hannibal.

 

Keeping my little fingers crossed that most sights are fine with me running DMR limits even though the real steel gun is 22lr

I take your bit of cable, and raise you with... 

some O-rings!

 

 

 

Ahem. 

Yeah well they came as a freebie from Ant Supplies...  Here's my actual haul...
A Bulldog MOLLE Mk4 tactical belt, with Karrimor SF Predator Under Armour Yoke.   Still have holster and more mag pouches etc to fit...
This replaces my Viper tac belt where the MOLLE section of the belt didn't get far enough around my expanded waistline  

 

 

Red dot lens protector (as seen earlier in this thread)
RIS Riser rail (quick release, adjustable height)
RIS rail (for my F2000 BF4 build)

2x Stubby grips

 

New toy on the way tomorrow...!

I'll raise you a metre of bungee cord

You've actually used your bungee cord though, whereas my o-rings are destined to knock about waiting for a "maybe I can use an o-ring" moment which will probably never come
(I did ask for them on purpose because those moments did occur in the past, when I didn't have any)

In my experience that moment usually arrives about a week after having a clear out, or when I've forgotten where I put them. As for the bungee cord, it's turned out to be the best sling I've used. Every other way of carrying it has resulted in the gun either being a ball ache to get off my back, or flopped about getting in the way

In the words of The Immortal Bard,

 

"Woof, woof, meow, hot diggity"

 

It's a cracker

(Unlike my photography, it's not focussed very well on the actual gun, damnit)

So last night i went online looking for Modify Tan buckings.

 

Ended up buying an upgraded MTR 16. It does have the tan bucking in it already, so it counts.

 

Picking it up Sunday

Airsoft logic, beautifully illustrated ?

C2R Chameleon x 2 to get the right fit, didn’t bother with the covers as I’m going to run it like a plate frame. 

 

Cant fault C2R, great design and the delivery was damn quick! Although…on reflection the fact it doesn’t come with female buckles for attaching a placard is a bit shit.

Nice, I'll be getting one somehow or other soon as they put out the skins in plain RG.  One of the best ever bits of modern kit to be born in the UK.

[Wavey_Gravey]

If you wanted a medium, multicam base in the mean time, hit me up as I’ll let it go for less than retail ??
 

I was surprised RG wasn’t on the initial offerings for the covers.
 

 

[TheFull9]

I'll be going with green but thanks mate.  I think they're intending for people to use G Hooks, did you source some 1" buckles alright?
