      Is £190 a lot to spend just on MOLLE pouches in one go? :S

       

      Damn you UK tac, with your reasonably priced, high quality gear that's available in various suitable colours....

      Ahah .... i would say so but i just spent almost 50€ to get a sling so ... not the right guy to judge you :P

      Out of curiosity, which pouches did you get ?

    4. TheFull9

      TheFull9

      Let's see..

      OD - 2 x radio, 2 x hydro carrier

      Tan - radio, hydro, small GP

      MC - 2 x .338 mag, smoke nade

       

      And of course some more grimlocks and web dominators, because those things are trés awesome-sauce.

  2. Well.. I was going to buy some TM SCARs, then Dytac had to go and release their EBB outer barrels with extended gas systems... 1st world problems.

      Heh, when 7 mags all do the same thing then I'm either seriously unlucky or it's a design fault. Anyways, next 2 guns planned will be electric in one way or another, I need some more weapons that are going to stay dependable for skirmishing and work with my gear/mags.

      GHK AKs is pretty awesome, but it'll need a good weekend of work on the mags to seal them I reckon....Finally got a batch of ProWin V2 coming for my AR, we'll see how those work....

      How many people still think Z1, GZ and the forum are not linked? Do we still have people that blind to how much they are *fruitcage*-ing up airsoft?

    3. TheFull9

      TheFull9

      I didn't think anyone thought that? Though I'd imagine there are if you're asking that. I mean on a basic level, they all operate within the same branding and company 'group'. Even if it weren't obvious based on the branding, Az has provided the evidence right there.

      You are on the forums, you have seen the 'we are not affiliated / have no say' posts that they put when someone complains and then gets ignored? I tried to ask the mods about it, flat ignored, no help offered, asked at the shop, same. Sad that they are so popular among those that are new. :(

      Resolved the issue about the furniture: MC. I think the rest of the body I may actually spray tan, never seen anyone do that before, and it'd be better camo than black.

  4. Oh dear, I'm definitely not skirmishing anywhere that's got more sand than that site. Poor MEU.. no GBB should make a sound that crunchy when you cock it... :s

      Mags + Gun all stripped and cleaned, there was a whole lot of nasty sand/silicone mix in there, horrible. Now 6 x SOPMOD mags to strip since they've started jamming, and only 6 screws mer mag.... :/

       

      Az: Just a small paintball place near to me that's started running airsoft as well, gotta take what you can get that's close. It was fun enough, nice little bunch of people; not as sandy as you're used to though I'm sure heh.

      My local (Sharjah, UAE) is surprisingly green. Trees, grass, aircraft. I do know what you mean though mate, it's also a small paintball field but it's alright.

  5. I think I need to invest in a decent blade, because I really shouldn't be resorting to cutting open deliveries using a pointy edge on a PTS MIAD backstrap.

      Thanks, was curious. I forgot to say that my M16 qual included three positions, standing/braced, kneeling, and prone.

      Did you have to shoot wearing a gas mask at any point? We did. Oddly enough, I actually hit dead center while wearing the mask. The instructor had never seen that before.

    3. TheFull9

      Yeah, we still MOPP suits for ORE/ORIs. 12hr shifts wearing full MOPP gear sucks, luckily, being aircrew, I never had to wear it all the time, just when I was going to/from the jet. Mostly, though, I got to skip out on the exercises as I would volunteer to be a roleplayer, mostly simulating a wounded airman after an 'attack'. After I informed the inspectors I had "hadji" and "russian" airsoft kit, they wanted me to use it lol!

      I just like the fact that despite there being absolutely zero evidence to support the implication, we've ended up in a position whereby I'm currently importing a WE XDM that's being carried by an ugly thai female. You guys are so silly, it's actually a KJW Glock which I've used as a carrier for killer european bees by hiding them in the magazines.

      You will end up with dead bees and a useless magazine, but it could be worse, could have been another AR, wonder i there is a customs bloke ou there scared we are going to start a revolution? :P

    4. TheFull9

      TheFull9

      I'm not sure they even open a lot of the packages; which is probably why I get away with importing stuff that should never have been exported from the US so often...

      Doesn't look that great TBH. Still using an adapted version of the Gamebryo engine, small, flashy settlements. I get the feeling they're simply adding new content rather than improving anything specifically.

       

      Very early on, though, so I could be proven wrong!

      It's not that I don't like the MP stuff, it's just I don't see what the big fuss is actually about. Even after buying the AFG and using it, I can't understand what people like so much. Is it the general look? Or just that it's a brand name!?

       

      P.S. Rich I was looking at XTM's for my SCAR, but went 'meh' when I saw the price!

    4. TheFull9

      TheFull9

      Ah, well you see you've asked the right question there because that's the entire crux of the overall issue. Personally I like the stuff because I've tried most of the grips/stocks etc there are for M4s, and the MP stuff always works better where it counts, it's just the best designed from my experience so I use it. But if someone else doesn't like it or thinks it's expensive, that's just fine, don't use it, doesn't bother me one bit. The main thing peopl...

      In the rifle pouches? Sure they will, they'll take any sort of STANAG, AK or 762 NATO mag, and that includes the old school stuff like the G3, FAL and M14.

    3. danielsilva

      danielsilva

      Really hope so, another reason for dropping the FastMAGs in favour of the TACOS was that i could use the same pouches for both my AR's and M14's. I could use my TT M14 pouches for the AR mags but i prefer singles. I reaaally hope they'll live up to the fame :P

      You don't need to hope mate I've tried. The mags I have for my King Arms FAL fit in the rifle TACOs I have just fine, I wouldn't have said what I did in my last comment otherwise.
