Here's my Noveske Leonidas inspired ICS M4 AEG.
I cut a little over 7.5" out of an ICS M16A3 barrel to get the correct length outer barrel that I wanted. Additionally due to the weak ICS barrel (for a free float application) I also created an aluminium doughnut spacer to eliminate barrel wobble and to center the barrel in the RIS.
Parts list includes:
ICS M16A3
KA Noveske KX-3 Fire Pig Flash Hider
Custom Length ICS M16A3 Barrel
JBU M16 Length Free Float RAS
Ergo Skeletonized Rail Covers
KA Tango Down Style Rail Covers
KA Tango Down Style Fore Grip
Bomber Troy Style Front and Rear Flip Up Sights
PDI KAC Style Trigger Guard
Barska Euro-30 Scope (1.25-4.5x)
KA Tango Down Agency Style One Point Sling Mount
Specter MOUT Sling
Pretty much it's all done, but I don't like the riser mount or scope rings I'm using. Had they laying around, so it's no big deal. Right now I'm looking at the Bomber replica of the LaRue SPR mount. Additionally, I'll be adding a Crane stock at some point in the future. More than likely, I'll be picking up another ICS M4 and adding a Crane stock to that. That way I'll still be able to have full stock or Crane stock, just by popping the receiver pins.
Here's the real weapon that I tried to replicate. I know it's in a different caliber, but no big deal for me.

Yeah it was shipped that way. No idea how it even got thru the factory though. The objective end of the scope is supposed to screw into the main body of the scope near the target turrets. However on mine, the front end of the scope was of different diameter and the threads wouldn't even engage.
Like I said, WGC took care of it. They showed the picture to G&P who in turn quickly replaced the scope.

After using M16/M4's for the last 5 years, my wife got me a TM OD M14 for Xmas. Pictures are pretty lames, but you can get the idea. Externally it's done. I've installed the G&P KAC RAS, the First Factroy Bottom Rail, Magpul XT Rail Covers, G&P RIS Sling Swivel, a G&P M1 Illuminated Reticle Scope w/ G&P KAC Optical Sight Mounting System Mount, or a Guarder Aimpoint on G&P "L" Mount.

G&P RAS and OSMS Trademarks
TM M14 with Aimpoint
Like I said, externally it's done. However, still waiting to find the Guarder M14 FTK before I do the internals. At that point I'll be installing the Guarder M14 FTK (with a different spring), a Guarder ARL, and either a Prometheus or Guarder 500mm M14 tight bore. Unfortunately, all of the regular shops I use are currently out of stock on the FTK.
Additionally, I orginally got the G&P M14 Sniper RAS (RAS, Scope, OSMS). However when I opened the box, the M3 scope was in 3 pieces. Here's a pic.
WGC took care of it though. They actually replaced the G&P M3 with the G&P M1 I listed above.

Looking to see if anyone has any pics of a VSR with the Smokey Stock System for Marui VSR-10 Series installed. Here's a link and a pic to what I'm talking about:

Any other info on that stock would be appreciated too.

The flap can held open ( notice the velcro on the flap, which matches with one of the mag pouch mounting points on the shank ) and IIRC it also has a thumb break doesn't it?
Yes the flap does stay open via the velcro. However, if you mount a mag pouch up there you loose that feature. As for a thumb break, it's got your standard BHI style thumb break, reinforce nylon webbing with a snap.
I'm on my third version of this holster. When I got into airsoft, I though black gear was the way to go, then I wanted OD gear, then BHI came out with the MOLLE version of this holster (pictured above). Needless to say this holster works well for me. I've used a TM M9 Tac Master, a WA SVI 5" Standard, a UHC USP, a TM Sig P226R, a WA MARSOC 1911, and a WE Hi Capa 5.1 in this holster. All have fit very well and the holster completely protects the pistol, except for the base plate on the mag.
-
I used the BHI Special Operations Holster for my SVI (before I sold it).
Fit well and really protected the pistol. Never lost a mag or anything. The downside is that due to the flap over the top, drawing the pistol can be a little slow. For as much as I use a pistol in skirmishing, that's not a big deal to me.

What kind of grip do you have on your WE? Kind of looks like a Hogue Handall Grip Sleeve, but how'd you use one of those with the grip saftey?

my old WA SVI Standard

The WAS talk about an OP Lion Claws event in TX, but it's not going to happen per John Lu the organizer of IRENE. However the local guys are still trying to get an event together.
-
There were two large companies going at it:
Delta - US Woodland BDU's - Lead by MSGT Mullen
Charlie - US Tri-Color or Chocolate Chip Desert BDU's, Lead by Col. McKnight
Those two companies totaled about 320 players.
On top of that, the US Army provided role players for the civilians. Futhermore, the "host" team (Op Force, KY, USA) provided what the organizer calls a Shadow Squad. Not to sure how many of them there were, but probably no more than 10-20 player.
Both the civilians and the Shadow Squad could either be friendly or hostile depending on how each force treated them.

4 missions;
1) Real Estate Grab - capture and hold as many buildings as possible
2) Civil Affairs - Keep contol of the buildings you captured, plus hold an election, soccer game, and open commercial operations
3) Capture the enemy CO - night game
4) Huey Down - find the crash site, rescue the pilots, rangers, and secure tier 1 personalities.

I was squad leader (Sgt) for Charlie 0102. This was the most amazing event I have ever been a part of. We played with the best airsofters from across the country. We even got to team up with our brothers on Team TAC again....love you Nextmayor.
...
Nextmayor, I'm glad to see you got one of the pistols too. It really is beautiful. It will find a home in a shadow box along with the OP challenge coin, patch, and my Sgt. stripes. I'll post pics when I have it done.
Ahh, Popeye, I'm touched.
JK, you know where TAC stands on the ECHO Rangers. Anytime, anywhere. Can't wait til the next time we hook up.As for the pistol and other goodies, we're thinking alike, but the wifey is a little opposed to me hanging a shadow box in our living room.
-
Per John Lu and the Texas organizers, that event is off, but the Texas guys are still going to be putting on an event themselves.

Tunershark:
The heavy machine gun was on the zebra painted technical (pick up truck) I pictured in my first post. It was a prop only. Some sort of electro / propane deal. Didn't shoot any bb's, but was loud as heck and really added to the atmosphere of the game.
They had a second once of these MG simulators in the back of a jeep. That one was our wake up call on both Sat. and Sun. The jeep comes tearing down the road by the camp grounds with these long bursts. All in all pretty cool.

I was the 1st Platoon Sgt, and the Col. had me running around a lot, but I think I recognize you. What a great event.
Just picked one of these up as a souvenir.
It's a full metal copy of the TM Hi Capa with Irene III logo's and Serial numbers. I think it's made by WE, but Airsoft Elite made these up for the event. Should be here Monday or Tuesday.
-
They had 2-3 mobile video camera, plus the faciltiy was wired with cameras to capture the action (for real training evaluation). If the videos are as cool as the still photos, just wait for the DVD.
-
I'm not 100% sure but I was under the impression that the RPG was shooting the flares that you see in pics like this.
-
They actually had a load of animals on site, loose dogs, ducks, goats, and I think even a horse.

Op: Irene is a memorial event for the guys from Gothic Serpent (Blackhawk Down). The picture that you refer to is from the Sunday Mission that simulated the events from Mogadishu. I wasn't at the crash site when the photos were taken, but I think the foam sticks were so the civilians could bang on stuff and people without harming anything. The whole weekend had us interacting with the civilians to keep them safe, out of the way, and prevent them from doing harm to our forces. Just part of the scenario.

Very nice, what rail system is that. I really like it. Much nicer than my G&P RAS. Good job.
