The 'What have you just bought' Thread

[Baser]

Cheap ex demo Cyma Platinum MP5 CM0.41K, longer hand guard of the one I already have, if it works I plan to either go full Die Hard replica or upgrade it similar to my MP5K PDW and add a longer internal barrel with suppressor outer so I can have a bit more range and accuracy. 

 

Theta Optics TO551 Red Dot to go on top of it.

 

Roll of camo wrap, 11.1v lipo and a bag of 0.28 BB's

 

Black t shirt, black thin tacticool long sleeve top and black jumper and an extra 2 x 130rd mid caps for evening indoor CQB

The stuff on it isn't new, but I figured I'd try one of these belt setups that velcro attaches onto a regular belt underneath. £20 on Aliexpress and so far I'm liking it. If I really like it, I may invest in a proper one, but for now this is fine and I will test it next weekend by using just it as a super lightweight setup. I should be able to carry everything I need for a game, but if not I can carry a small backpack with gas and BBs if needed. If anything I might remove the dump pouch if I don't end up using it.

 

It isn't as scrunched together when it's actually on me, due to angles.

Can you tell what I'm going for with this...?

 

I'll eventually get another XM177 to use as a DoE Colt SMG, need to source a deflector (that won't cost the earth in postage) & a straight MP5 mag.

 

Was impressed by the seller in HK making my UKARA very obvious & they listed the adaptor as a $10 toy.

No further questions.

 

Since Bill's letting the side down by selling guns, i had to pick up the slack and buy a (very nice) NGRS HK417 from the classifieds.

This was my first google find but I'm not keen on the design, I've ordered one from Bullseye Sports now.

I bought this at AP on Sunday, having admired it in the site shop for a while.  It is currently in bits on the work table and will soon have a new hop rubber and nub, a Perun Hybrid and 13:1 gears so that I can run it on a 2000mAh 7.4v battery that just about fits in the handguard.

The only good AR is a weird AR.

Could you not rear wire it into the buffer tube at all?

[DanBow]

A Knock off B.A.D. Lever from Empire Airsoft. An original one will set you back about 40 notes but this little beauty was a penny shy of sixteen nicker. Postage bumped that up to 22 finest British pounds.

I had to shim it, with a bit of Monster can, and it works lovely.

Unfortunately not, because the buffer tube has a stonking great spring in it that extends the stock.  Most of the rest of the stock is taken up by various other gubbins as well.

[Anonymoose]

So after deciding not to spend too much on the new 417 right away.. i bought a new inner barrel, a new M100 Spring, a scope, a bipod, and two 500mm pieces of raw ally bar/tube to make a silencer for it.

 

I can't be trusted with money.

[Asomodai]

So the gearbox in my E&L AKM is deemed to be defective as the Motor cage wont attach tightly enough in any direction and sounds awful as soon as the pistol grip is attached. 

 

Decided to swap in the gearbox in my LCT AMD-65 to the E&L (Whilst swapping the Cylinder to a full type. And going RetroArms/Mosfet for the AMD)

 

RetroArms V3 CNC QSC Gearbox. 

LCT Magwell Spacer x2

RetroArms CNC Cylinder Head

RetroArms CNC Type C Cylinder

RetroArms CNC Steel Bearings

RetroArms CNC Tappet Plate

RetroArms CNC Fire Selector Screw

RetroArms CNC Motor Cage

RetroArms CNC Nozzle (19.7 and 19.8mm)

Perun V3 Optical

Perun Clicker

XT M105 Spring

Solink 12:1 Helical gears

SHS Anti Reversal Latch

 

This is paired with an existing T238 Brushless Motor and Prommy 363mm barrel.

After a hiatus on airsoft spending for a few months - 

 

Miltec Trousers and UBACS in Phantomleaf WASP I Z3A

5.11 Double Duty (RG/BK) Belt

Airtac MWS Modular Adapter with M4 Base

Airtac x T1P Dead Drop Grip and Trigger Guard x2

RATech WA to WE barrel adapter

5KU WA 9" Outer Barrel

Guns Modify 3.5 MWS Nozzle x2

Jaeger Precision MWS NPAS (updated version) as a spare

Jaeger Precision TPU buffer for Salvo Precision MCX (if I ever buy one, it'll be handy to have it already)

 

Not having to spend money, because of RMA on warranty, Airtac also replaced my Gen 1 WE M4 Adapter with not only the modular Gen 2, but also the Gen 3 for the V3 WE system. 

 

Traded a pile of WE M4 PMags for a TM M&P9 with Nova Slide kit and other gubbins + 3 mags also.

Finally getting around to posting after faffing about moving house.
 

 

1. Picked up a boneyard JG AUG A3. The internal wiring is a mess and luckily another user on here had a Perun AUG MOSFET for sale. Now I just need the free time to work on it.
    
2. Picked up a Ares Kel-Tec RDB17 for less than half the price of retail and the seller added a big flash hider which suits the rifle way better than the standard one. The seller also included TWO extra MOSFETs that come standard with the RIF which doesn't give me the greatest confidence about how well built the electronics are but I guess i'll find out. Sounds pretty snappy on an 11.1v lipo and the externals feel great. Definitely going to give this a run out when I next get to the field - I just need to figure out if my mags work with it as i've heard these RIFs can be pretty picky.
    
3. A King Arms P90 and the extended barrel intended to mimic the PS90. Got it on sale from a retailer and found the extended outer barrel for ~£10. The same person selling the Perun AUG MOSFET also happened to be selling a P90 MOSFET so I grabbed that too.
    
4. Not pictured: another boneyard G&G MP5 with some terribly applied two-tone. The charging handle had been snapped off and the gun is now in many pieces as I wait to replace the broken part(s) and strip the two-tone paint from it.
    

For the new house, to clear out most of my bags/cases laying around, I bought a rifle rack/stand from ebay. It's kinda crappy but it works.

I swopped out the mag on mine without any fit issues but it's never been fielded, I got 0.96j 287.6fps on 0.2's. I felt the battery fitting to be a complete pain but as I said I've never fielded it.
