Looking good man, nice work.
-
Nice setup, much prefer those VTAC rails to the TRX line.
Do those rails come with any extra 20mm segments?
-
Internals are way from sorted though.....
Just like the real thing!
From what I've seen that is.
maybe a CTR

I understand its not an impression, but you can atleast think of it from a logical, practical standpoint. And that not logical nor practical in any way I can see. Unless you are 100% ambidextrous I cant see that working very well.
Why not think about the fact he's tried various different configurations already and settled on that one his own reasons?
Try actually having a proper look at that setup. By the time he's put both of those double pouches next to each other the very rear pair of magazines are going to be somewhere around near his spine, how is that practical for reloads? The vast majority of people that use chest rigs, PCs and vests run their magazine pouches right across the front exactly as House has done there, works fine for all those people. Back in the days of ALICE and PLCE that's exactly how everyone used to carry their magazines, worked fine then as well.

Well 30 rounds is a realcap isn't it? I always run mids with between 75 and 120 per magazine, so 4 or 5 is plenty.

That was one of the big things that kept them from popularity initially, too many range commandos complained they were hard to put on.
Says a lot about range commandos really. The only part I've found a bit awkward has been getting the free end to finally secure in to the locking piece, but end of the day, it takes you 5-10 minutes to get things setup and then you get dozen/hundreds/thousands of hours use from the thing. I don't see how anyone can think that's not worth a little bit of effort at the beginning.

Pretty sure the DMR stock, barrel and handguards are all on their way as individual items. Same as the folding stock and the 11.5" barrel.
-
I didn't realise how annoying the malice clips on the taco pouches are.
Welcome to a whole new world of frustration. Until you've got them fitted and are actually using the things of course, then they're great.
-
You just carry this around, right?
Correct.
It's not like I'm taking rifle courses in another state and need a case to send my guns in. It just goes in the back of my car for skirmish days, that's all.
-
Heh! Some of you might not understand but it just infuriates me because its my work and its been stolen. I took my time to write that and someone just copies it...and submits it with their name attached to it. What a D-bag thing to do.
That really is a properly *suitcase* thing to do. Have you contacted WGC? Because that's just not on.
-
Sorted then, thanks m_t. Finally I can put something together worthy of the D&G'ness of the Helmet picture thread.
-
You wash it all out afterwards, just leaves lots of small ridges/rises in the paint for a nice textured surface.
-
Another great hydro product from Source, loving their stuff. Seems ideal for airsoft really seeing as so many of us use rigs with plate pouches but have no need for the armour itself.
Thanks for highlighting this Gish, top quality review.
-
I've seen that sugar trick used before for painting the insides of small sailing boats, pretty clever idea.
-
Gucci lid sigma, good stuff. Do we reckon the RS rails themselves will go on alright?
-
Ah, well there we go, problem solved. Didn't expect the cover to come with the extras, though for the price I suppose I should've expected it really.
-
I will be, though I'm pretty certain before I've even bought it that it's not going to work right out the box. It seems to make use of certain velcro attachment points inside the RS Airframe which aren't featured on the TMC version.
-
Agree with that, it can look a bit small compared to older designs, but on the other hand this the only helmet I've ever worn that doesn't give me insane shroom'age. I look an utterly ridiculous in my issue mk6.
-
Interesting notes there guys, good info.
Ex: I actually noticed a similar thing myself when I first unpackaged the FH. I like to generally get a feel of any metal product I buy so I know what to expect from it while in use, so I handled it and gave one of the prongs a flick with my finger nail, and as you say, produced a fairly long resonating tone (for such a small object that is). I would presume this is a combination of the high quality material used and the fact that the ends are not encircled as with your standard AR/L85 birdcage or other similar designs of hider. The design leaves the ends of the prongs free to vibrate slightly when impacted.
-
I'm in the M/L sort of area, 57/58cm. The fit is pretty close to ideal for me I find.
-
I'm getting a hell of an education about the ACR GB reading all this, that's for sure. Good effort sn00py.
-
That, is amazing.
-
Pretty much the opposite effect of the Crye/LBT systems, but good alternative to belt rig suspenders none-the-less.
-
Nice, very nice. Getting primary mags, secondary mags, comms, greandes and hydro all on there just shows what can be done even with a fairly slim chest rig.
Looked at those Source 1Ls many a time, definitely going to pick one up whenever I get around to putting a chest rig together.

I figured there's probably enough rifles out there now which follow the new standard and I'm also really not a fan of Grip-Pods, so I thought I'd stick to the legacy colour for plastic furniture on L85s.
Weighs a *fruitcage* ton, but given the barrel length, the improved ergonomics gained by using the rail and the myriad features of the optic, I'm quite happy with that. The only thing I'd really like to do is sort out a wider/padded sling, the sling points on the ICS are particularly narrow (even more so than those on the real weapon) which makes it rather awkward.
