Bought so much from Taiwangun in the past Put a order request Into patrolbase to order stuff from their site. Takes 4-6 weeks as I think they do a monthly request order to them. I've just had a few bits turn up today from doing this. Edited February 10, 2023 by Stevobeavo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevobeavo Posted February 11, 2023 Share Posted February 11, 2023 (edited) Mag adapters and mp5 mags for my DE UTR45 turned up today. Also a Daniel defense handguard I got off here turned up. Seems to be a insert in the barrel nut to make it narrower so doesn't fit over my outer barrel., So I'll take it it into work and see if it presses out Edited February 11, 2023 by Stevobeavo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was the chonky mags that put me off the gun, but MP5 mags are much more practical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Waco Kid Posted February 11, 2023 Share Posted February 11, 2023 I got an as new complete LC1 large Alice pack (yup another one) plus a set of SR1 (1st Gen) ITW Nexus buckles to refurb some kit.

RostokMcSpoons Posted February 15, 2023 Share Posted February 15, 2023 (edited) My Sotac EXPS3 sight has turned up turned up (late... the shop owner was on hols, and then Snail Mail lived up to its name too, it was sent on Friday) £55 from eBay. Maybe I'll do a mini-review it in the thread where I asked which one to buy (and then bought this in a hurry), but the TL;DR version is the attractive reticle is nice and bright - but the brightness adjusters work in very fine increments (too fine?), the whole thing feels well built, the quick-release mount is good, and parallax is perfectly alright (i.e. horrible at absolute point-blank, a very few centimetres at 6-7m (more vertical than horizontal), and unnoticeable to my decrepit eyes at 15m+) I also bought a Red Dot Engineering sight protector... that will take a tiny bit of filing / Dremel work too fit, because it's too tight a fit, and there needs to be some relief around the battery cap retainer wire.

alxndrhll Posted February 17, 2023 Share Posted February 17, 2023 Big personal win for me today, these puppies arrived and the gamble of going with a small reg paid off (been gradually working down from a large reg for the last few years).

I maintain that I hate the knee pad design granted that's not unique to the Platatac ones, I just loathe the Crye knee pad design/system and genuinely can't fathom how its last so long without revision. Aaaaaanyway, that aside the Plat ones are definitely my favourite run of Crye-alikes, glad you're liking them. Looking forward to selling my pair of regular Tigers on so I can grab a new pair in what is now the correct size. C-Diddy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RostokMcSpoons Posted February 19, 2023 Share Posted February 19, 2023 (edited) Two G&G high cap mags for the G(EC)36. They're very nicely made, and weren't too pricey at ~£25 each from Bullseye. That means I'm "skirmish-ready" with the G36* as I'll have 2 high caps = 800rds plus 2 mid caps. Which is nice. Also got the Cyma M14 scope mount. Here's some pain for me - it obviously will fit perfectly, but my aborted attempt to fit the cheapo Ali Express copy I bought a few months ago meant I've cut a bigger thread partway into the front bolt hole. Not big enough to accept the supplied bolt for that (it's a stupid half size, M5.5 I think). That means there's not much of the original thread left - and the Cyma bolt isn't quite long enough to reach it now. I've either got to buy the M5.5 tap and commit to the Ali's bolt, or find someone with a Helicoil set, so I can fit the Cyma one. Ho hum. * Assuming the gun shoots straight once it's in The Great Outdoors Edited February 19, 2023 by RostokMcSpoons Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaylordofwaargh Posted February 22, 2023 Share Posted February 22, 2023 This almost generic ICS sports line number from @HuttArmouries to replace my other nearly generic CAA M4. Feels great, will still be a while before I can get it out to a skirmish. and now I have a replacement I can take the other one apart and "learn" if I am capable of fixing or I just post a bag of bits to an actual tech 😅 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just made an order from Patrolbase, I'll see if they've got one I can add in. (Edit: out of stock, damnit) It'll save me buying mini-cans I can fit in my existing pouches Edit: Is the pouch this double P90 one? https://www.amazon.co.uk/Viper-P90-Mag-Pouch-V-Cam/dp/B00WX21DFO/ref=sr_1_1 That seems to have an internal divider - do you just cut it out, or will the can fit regardless? Yes you just have to cut the middle wall out most of the way so the gas can will fit easy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigStew Posted February 27, 2023 Share Posted February 27, 2023 Never thought I would buy anything from Nuprol but it fits all my guns that actually work (The M14 it was actually bought for has taken longer than the 14 to 16 days to turn up. hitting 21 days and not even a tracking no). not a fan of the egg crate foam any one give a recommendation for foam that can be cut to shape?
