  1. Anyone have any idea if you can get a new shell for the mags? Just lost the base plate for mine.

    If it's just the base plate, and it's probably a stupid idea, would one from an AEG fit ?

     

    I know this possibly isn't the best place to ask but as it's a question specific to the gun. I was going to put a suppresor on mine, I know anything 14mm neg will fit but is there a "right" one ?

     

    Thanks

  2. I can offer a couple of candidates, all clearly pistols but I'm not sure if you'd consider all of them "carbines" as the last two can revert to straight pistol style very quickly. However........

     

    (Modern) Hera Glock

    Personally I like them all in their own different ways.

  3. So much top quality stuff here guys in paticular all the unique custom builds and aged gear which honestly is just plain art work. Good work all of you - let's see more.

     

    I'm afraid I've nothing I can add which comes anywhere near your gear but I've slowly accumulated, with no big plan in mind, some WWII pieces a few of which are here.

    As I say no real plan just bought them because for some reason I liked each of them.

     

     

     

  4. The right tools let you do a proper job, without them it might still be possible but it's easier to mess it up if you "make do".

     

    Hmm......... paint the shower blue with some fake panel detail........ Nahh I think the boss might not be too happy with that. She's pretty tolerant so I shouldn't push too far, puts up with all the airsoft kit and my other "toys" like Sec's two brothers, not new but what the heck I don't think I put a picture up.

    Again the 18" versions.

  5. I'm actually really excited about getting this. That must be really sad...

    No, not at all, if you want it or need it to do something you want to do I'd say you've every right to be excited.

     

    It is maybe a bit...... "grown up" so to bring it back down to a level I work better at :)

    He's an 18" tall voice or radio controlled Dalek Sec. The photo is a bit poo but it's a grey miserable day so the light naff. I like him, the size makes him quite "chunky".Quite spooky when you talk to him and the head turns to face you when he replies :o I've not seen too many of the black ones around, now I just have to work out where to put him.

  6. Hmm not sure if it counts - but I'd still like one.

    Any way after all these years of airsoft and it's only this summer I get my first revolver, along comes Autumn and another one turns up.

     

    RugerSuperBlackhawk75.jpg

     

    Ruger Super Blackhawk - also my first ever 8mm. I can resist anything but temptation.

  7. Well I guess if you've only got one revolver you might as well make it one they'll notice.

     

    SWM500Colt1911.jpg

     

    I didn't realise just how big it was untill it arrived so when I took the pic I needed something to give a sense of scale to it.

  8. Found on this very forum and arrived just yesterday. I bought it specifically (30 second decision :) ) because I have the pulse rifle but the three round burst is probably enough fun to justify it anyhow.

     

    It's the Tanio Koba version but I understand there's a UHC version too, don't know what the relationship / compatability between them is. I'm sure someone will be along who does though.

     

    VP70withstock.jpg

     

    That's it with the stock attached.

  9. Dave...whered you get the Delta stockpiece from? Ive tried two types and they were both utter pants.

     

    The Cheyenne one kept stripping the self-tapping screws that held it together, the other used pips at the top for a seperate rubber piece and they broke.

     

    Second hand off of one of the forums, not sure which, way back. It's been on ever since I got it and despite being a tight fit (air turns blue tight when fitting) once on it's been always been solid. No idea what make, others have asked and I'm afraid I just have to say I don't know. It may be the Cheyenne but with inserts and allen head screws fitted by the 1st owner, I'm at least the 3rd owner.

     

    I just saw it and thought it was different and it's so comfy it's been on since.

     

  10. I decided to do a bit more tidying up of my stuff this afternoon so while I had stuff all over the bed I thought I'd take a bit of a family picture.

     

    Armalitefamily.jpg

     

    Not a great pic I know.

     

    Starting from the top and sort of going clockwise

     

    Hurricane bodied SR47, My "bitsa" M635 9mm, Old faithful TM M4A1, M15A4 DMR, Madbull Patriot kit on CA body, M15A4 with M203, M15A4 SD.

     

    As someone once said to me "an Armalite for all occasions"

     

    Dave

  11. Thanks - it's not really as bad as it looks, I think the flash has caught it tbh, the fore grip is in perfect condition but it's got the same white effect in the chequering. To be fair though the donor M15 wasn't exactly new so the glossy edges on the body are where the black finish has worn to the metal - let's just say it has "character"

     

    Dave

  12. Well there's still things to do, I think I need to change the cylinder for an MP5k style as I seem to be down on fps which I assume is the effect of the short barrel. I also need to sort out something about an internal battery pack so it's running an external in the PEQ2 box.

    But it is very short and pointable which was the idea so I'm a happy bunny.

  13. Kliskey - The shotgun's a 6mm Marushin M500. I bought it 2nd hand because I saw the wood and thought Ahhh..... nice Plus it works like a shotgun with 5 flying hornets of white plastic death (overactive imagination on my part :rolleyes: ) each pull of the trigger. It makes a realy nice Ker-Klack noise when you rack it and no shells to pick up.

     

    When I got it it had a couple of minor issues, the biggest being that at some point it looked like it had been quickly varnished it and it was showing it's age. A bit of rubbing down and a few coats of oil and it looks nice - I think.

     

    Hopefully no-one minds a pic of an individual gun.

    Still want to do some cosmetic bits but thanks have to go to rizzini7 for his advice that got me this far.

  14. holy jesus, jebus

     

    Like he said - wow

     

    I've been putting some storage together for mine

     

    gunrackver3-1.jpg

     

    and I am (was) quite pleased with the result. Now I realise I don't need more guns I need a bigger house first :D

     

    Nice to see everyones ideas though not just the big collections. I put off getting the power tools out for ages working out how I was going to do it and I'm still browsing for some ideas. So thanks for sharing chaps.

     

    Dave

     

     

  15. Thanks for that Yeager. I was just editing to say I'd had a quick surf through the tech forum and it looked like it might be ok and saw your reply when I previewed the edit.

     

    Still good to hear from someone who's done it, thanks again.
