They’ve even sent you the wrong cocking lever to boot - says it’s for an A2 on the packaging…

I know. Unfortunately irony/sarcasm doesn’t come over too well in print/black and white… 😂

To be fair tho... I need to fabricate an inner bit to attach it properly.

My SR-25 came back from getting the works over at Negative Airsoft and he was kind enough to sell me this lovely PTS Magpul PRS to go alongside so battery changes aren't as much of a pain in the ass. Fires lovely, the perun clicker is awesome and I just can't wait to use the thing!

Bought a M-lok sling mount and M-lok to picatinny rail adaptors from aliexpress for a fraction of the cost than getting in the UK.

 

Got an nurpol m-lok 12inch handguard from a2supplies.co.uk, come within a few days very fast delivery.

Picked up a Silverback TAC-41 Lite this afternoon from my local shop, been watching their website like a hawk last couple of days, as I knew they were landing this week, so as soon as I saw they'd changed from "out of stock" to "In stock", I gave them a call to keep 1 back for me, (not knowing how many they'd got in and how quick they'd sell), so popped in on way home. Also picked up the 24mm thread long carbon suppressor and a 110rd mag (no thread adaptors from 24mm-14mm and no standard 48rd mags in stock). I decided I'd use spare scope and rings from my air rifles, so went into my gun room to open my cabinet to get them out. Assembled the rifle and then tried the scopes, my options were either a Nikko Sterling Nighteater 4-16x44 SF or Hawke Sport HD 2-7x30 AO IR, only got low mounts that will fit the rifle. Despite the NS being about 4" longer and larger objective lense, it didn't look too big and although I could still operate the hop, it was fairly close, so went with the Hawke, which with the correct eye relief, the objective lense doesn't even get to the end of the rail and about 5mm clearance, so spot on. Just got to find some time to zero it before my next game.

 

Might have to see how my Yukon Photon 4.6x42 digital NV scope is on the rifle, maybe do some night games, luckily, being digital, I can use it day or night, although image is only in black and white.

A mix of stuff I bought at Shift Your RIFTs and items that weren't available/in stock with retailers there. The hicapa was 2nd hand from someone selling for £80, but I needed to buy a mag for it as the one it came with wasn't TM and didn't lock back on empty.

For the AAP I got the stainless steel hammer set, auto sear and fire pin lock, an ultra lightweight blowback unit, a 50 degree flamingo bucking, a crazy jet barrel and a hadron 300% return spring and short stroke buffer. Already got the h-plate for the build in the AAP and it has been performing okay so far, but it's time to make it mean and hopefully more reliable in the cold! :P

 

For the hicapa, I bought the nineball magazine rubbers and a crazy jet barrel. Got a spare ML hop rubber and h-plate in my bits box so all that will be an "it'll do" build until I can get the rest of the stuff from hicapa hub. Might do it later this month, but will see.

 

And the 60 degree flamingo is to try in my m700. If I like it, I'll also try one in my MWS.

Me again, but I bought something over the weekend that I wasn't expecting to because I couldn't say no to it. Guess the rest of the hi-capa build will have to be done next month instead 😂

 

PPS Kar98k. Came with 4 mags, 1 is leaking so I'll get that all fixed up. Coming with me to the upcoming Vietnam filmsim as the mags fit perfectly in my SKS chicom. Hop rubber is also knackered, so I've got a Flamingo bucking on the way and figured I'd stick a Maple Leaf Crazy Jet barrel in it as well while I'm in there, so those are on the way.

One (hopefully) neat addition to the ammo hub:

6x3 admin/utility pouch from Baribal.

Good looking setup mate, which insert do you have in there?

Nothing fancy, just an AliExpress clone of the Haley mp2 triple insert.

Holds metal mags adequately without making it Excalibur-like impossible to extract.

Also makes it less difficult to reinsert mags compared to the spiritus style elastic sandwich.
