Hubert Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 Gone for some vintage 1940's German design. Walther PPK, spare magazine.

Supporters jcheeseright Posted December 18, 2013 Supporters Share Posted December 18, 2013 A Trijicon RM01 RMR. Was a bargain considering the RRP but I'm still feeling a little bit sick about the whole thing. At this rate my Glock is going to end up being my most expensive airsoft item, fucked up. *** edit *** Just added it all up, had I bought all of it at RRP/new it'd have set me back £890. Now I actually do feel sick :-( Airsoft_Mr B 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supporters Ian_Gere Posted December 18, 2013 Supporters Share Posted December 18, 2013 Just bought a pair of low-cap G36 mags from flea-bay for my first proper rifle.... I almost went after them too... on the grounds that, when it comes to low/midcaps, you can never have too many, but I'm trying to stop buying airsoft stuff for the time being so i can get a graphics pad for me lappy.

Russe11 Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 Desert Locust style goggles in mesh and normal, MP5 mag pouches in Coyote, Knee and elbow pads in coyote, mesh mask and Mp5 torch grip from Taiwangun.com HFC Mk23 Socom (blue 2 tone cos its £10 cheaper than the RIF version), 2 spare mags and some green gas from onlybbguns.com Yes I know I will get a lecture from Ian about buying from somewhere with BB in the name but I bought my Well MP5SD there and therefore had a discount code Backpack, hydration bladder, vest, batteries for my sight, a radio and radio data cable from Amazon. All of this came to less than £250 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters Ian_Gere Posted December 19, 2013 Supporters Share Posted December 19, 2013 Hey Russ, whatever you like, eh? If they've been good to you, go with 'em. I mean we have got to leave room in our opinions for the fact that businesses can change and, even though cynicism is usually the best policy when it comes to determining how people will behave in relation to making money, good customer service is a way to make more money by, as with your situation, generating return business. Let us know how you get on with that Baofeng, eh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russe11 Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 My view of onlybbguns.com is that they do sell a lot of poor quality stuff aimed at kids who use them in their back gardens etc, They do have a few items they sell that are good enough for use in skirmishing. Unlike other similar web sites, they have video reviews of their guns, they are actually very useful as seeing someone handle something gives a better idea of quality than a carefully lit photo. In this case I knew I wanted this particular gun and they had it £10 cheaper than anywhere else and I had a code for £5 off. If you watch a few of this guy's videos, you will realise that he's not usually this enthusiastic. He's also very good at telling you what a gun is capable of. My MP5SD for example he rated as a starter gun and it is quite capable for skirmishing but is a bit limited so he was spot on there. I wanted the ASG or HFC Mk23 socom for 2 reasons, the silencer extends the inner barrel making it very accurate for a pistol and because it is Non Blowback it is almost silent. I know a few people who use these and they are excellent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters Ian_Gere Posted December 19, 2013 Supporters Share Posted December 19, 2013 Yeah, it's a good pistol - few moving parts too, so unlikely to break easily. At the sale price of fifty notes I'm tempted: the USP frame fits very nicely in my hand. Let me know when you get yours if the slide is painted blue or blue plastic, if you wouldn't mind?

Russe11 Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 It is plastic (why would you need metal if it's non blowback?). It's a TM clone and the TM one was full plastic I believe. Unusually for a TM clone costing half the price, they actually improved the design with the inner barrel extension. It should take TM magazines. Discount codes if u need em: edit: oh you mean is it black plastic painted blue? I doubt it, the black ones are branded as ASG, the blue ones as HFC so its almost certainly blue plastic. I shall paint mine, possibly in khaki so it doesn't get mixed up with all the others at the courthouse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got my ASG Mk23 from here http://www.airsoftarmoury.co.uk/acatalog/ASG-Mk23-Assassin-203.html out of stock at the moment but at £49.99 the best price I found.

Supporters Ian_Gere Posted December 20, 2013 Supporters Share Posted December 20, 2013 Thanks lads. Yeah, what I actually want is an Umarex KWA KP45 Match, but I'm not sure when, or if I'll be able to afford one. In the meantime I could do with a USP that isn't CO2, fires under 350FPS, but not so far under that the drop in range from my Palco will piss me off so much I'll wish I hadn't bothered. But maybe I should just try and save up... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russe11 Posted December 20, 2013 Share Posted December 20, 2013 Well its arrived and yep, plastic but such good quality it took a moment to be sure. The blue anodised look is actually very convincing and is kinda growing on me. Ian_Gere 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheeky vimto Posted December 20, 2013 Share Posted December 20, 2013 Just bought a tan shirt and a mtp hip pad from meanandgreen.com. I'm very impressed with the hip pad. It genuine issued one so it's used but for £10 it fits really well and it's solid construction. What's everyone think of the tan shirt? I'm getting bored of full Multicam so I thought tan would mix it up. I might get some tan trousers to go along with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters Ian_Gere Posted December 20, 2013 Supporters Share Posted December 20, 2013 ^^Yeah, the shirt works well. Dunno about tan kecks as well though - a bit US Navy. Would you do me a favour? Measure the inside of your new hip pad, please. It's possible I could use one as a back support instead of the black one I currently use, which would go nicely with the blufor loadout I'm building.

Cheeky vimto Posted December 20, 2013 Share Posted December 20, 2013 Just a thought about the shirt aswell. It's quite thin, it'll make the sweat show up loads! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters Ian_Gere Posted December 20, 2013 Supporters Share Posted December 20, 2013 Yeah, your waist measurement doesn't help much because I would wear it much higher up*. I'm about 36-7 so I buy 38 / 96 to be sure of comfort these days. Now I've thought more about it, I need to know how long it is from the buckle to edge of the opposite side of the pad and also how long the trailing belt is. Oh yeah, and I won the auction for this: 3x CREE XM-L T6 LED 3600 LM Lumens Waterproof Torch - £16 delivered ~ dove-xx Imagine the strobe on this bastard!?! EDIT: * what I mean is that i'm slimmer than my waist size higher up, especially when my back protector is pulled as tight as it needs to be for proper support.

It doesn't come with a belt, you thread your own belt through it. Not sure what you mean, I'm confused! I've got a 1800lm light. They're super bright!
