The 'What have you just bought' Thread

[Enid_Puceflange]

I watch too many Garand Thumb videos

 

A pair of Tactical Toms clone G3 breeks from Ali Exp

A 1/3 of the price of the Krydex G3 I bought 18m ago, and not much difference in the quality 

Felt it was worth a punt ??‍♂️

 

[ButcherBill]

I knew I'd get one eventually... had to buy these from the classifieds tho.

 

Not sure if it was deliberate but the rif in the blue & white patch needs the hop adjusting ?

Decided to risk a punt on an HT-3006 Chronogrph so I can check the fps of our guns

And now there's no space left in the 'under the stairs armory'

They are decent pieces of kit.

[Mik3F]

Thats good to hear, wasn't sure as they are quite cheap compared to all the others

Wanting to give HPA a go, I've picked up an Ares Amoeba Honey Badger 013 HPA edition on Monday. Already thinking of what to do with it, but as it has a mock suppressor and the inner barrel comes all the way to the end, I was looking at the Airtech barrel stabiliser and tracer adaptor to fit a short suppressor, however, everywhere I'm looking, even Airtech, they're sold out, so I'll probably look at extending the outer barrel and suppressor instead. Looking at some reviews, I'll probably change the hop rubber, as a lot of reviews suggest the original doesn't last long and maybe upgrade the barrel (same length), to a better quality one. I'll give it a go as is for now though.

As I started a new job in January, the overtime I've been doing while training has paid for the RIF, bottle, regulator and hose and I'm still in pocket, so I can get the other parts in my own time. Only thing I forgot to ask the shop, was what weight BBs they'd recommend, luckily I've got a few different weights, so I can have a play while setting it up.

They are ok

The winding handle has a habit of falling off, so get it glued onto its screw before you field it.

Clones are quite “crunchy” in operation

The originals have a much better clutch system and work superbly

im trying to learn all the different pneumonics etc and just googled this.

so…..

is is a multifunction laser or a device to carry a battery to extend the life of your AEG?

serious question.

im learning 

 

And the fact I purchased something very similar but it’s a red laser & light (light isn’t great but it looks good ? )

Some are simply battery cases, mainly for rifs that don't have space in the front rail/guard or a butt stock, others have basic functions like a torch/lazer, others are the real deal and are wasted for airsoft but some players like to have the real thing.

This is the one I purchased just the other  day….

just for decoration ?

Just plastic or actually functional?

it is functional, untested as yet. I appreciate at this price point they won’t be great but they do look good and maybe be useful to a degree. (Please excuse me as I’m talking with no prior experience of these) The torch is not very bright but may work well in certain situations. The laser also works but only tried in the house, what it’s like at distance I’m unsure of.

I won’t be actually using it for a couple of weeks as this weekend I’m hoping to use my MP5SD6. Which has no rail, so just iron sights & tracers, just need to purchase some mags for it as only have one at the moment.

 

If I can’t find some I’ll swap and I will use it with the M4.
