      Want me to look after your WOC's...

      I would be surprised if there are any souvenirs left.

       

      At least you get a extras on the pay check plus there isn't much to buy whilst you are there.

      Heh, sorry john, they're fine where they are.

       

      Will - you'd be surprised. They keep finding things to blow up every couple of weeks, and that's excluding all the land mines.

  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....

      Look forward to your report on those mate.

  3. Hessian screening and disposable pyros do not get along.

    1. TheFull9

      TheFull9

      I probably got close, but no I only threw one pyro that day, I'm not a fan of them to be honest. Someone else set it on fire though, cut right in to my lunch break.

      Budget limits I suppose, I can quite understand your point though, similar issue with all the big glass store fronts.

  5. Here we go... standard AEG. Nothing fancy or out of the ordinary. This'll be a cinch to modify. *2 days later* fffuuuuuuu...

      It's ok, I got there in the end. Pretty much worn out a red grinding wheel dremeling though.

      Beer is undoubtedly quite manly, but it's also terribly un-tactical.

  7. ICS Garand is 8mm :(

    1. cazboab

      cazboab

      On Youtube vids of it, the ICS rep says its 8mm too. :( SO MUCH FAIL. First it was an SMLE, then an M1 garand, now its an 8mm oddity.

    2. renegadecow

      renegadecow

      Maybe 8mm bushings is what they meant?

    3. renegadecow

      renegadecow

      Don't really mind it being 8mm myself. But depending on the price, one may as well just go with the Marushin gbb.

  9. Anyone have a link to a good appendix of tactical type acronyms/abbreviations?

    1. TheFull9

      TheFull9

      I dunno, will's link is pretty handy. I try and stay positive about people, there's so much corruption, disloyalty and hypocrisy in this world it wouldn't be good to start dwelling on the negative too much.

  10. Ooh.. shiny new PMAGs that work in guns which aren't ARs. Good idea that.

    1. aznriptide859

      aznriptide859

      Basically eliminates whole point of EMAG's. *points and laughs at British Army*

    2. TheFull9

      TheFull9

      It does now, but us using the old steel magazines for the entire time that we've had EMAGs may well have meant a couple more dead men. Our EMAGs are dual window, I don't really see how the MoD is in any sort of comical situation as a result of this release.

      :o I love MAGPUL so much... it's hot healthy to like a company this much, but I guess that's their whole concept :|

      Nice new PMAGS actually, me gusta!

  12. My brother on the subject of certain ACM AEGs: "Hotter than a McDonalds apple pie". Brilliant.

  13. Work kit updated. Issue combat gloves replaced with Mechanix, cheap fleece hat replaced with Arc'teryx beanie. Definitely the most tacticool armourer now.

  14. After waiting for years I finally get my 5.11 Sabre, and what do they do? Bring out a bloody version 2 of course..

    1. TheFull9

      TheFull9

      Personally I think the joke's on them because the v1 has colour matched zips and looks infinitely better, plus it's cheaper. Either way of course, being 5.11 it's built solid.

    2. Vice

      Vice

      Had my sabre for 2 years. Great bit of kit for autumn/winter. Too hot for summer though.

    3. TheFull9

      TheFull9

      Yeah I wore it in the house for about 5 minutes before I did my video review, sweating like a bugger before I got outside.

  15. Ooh yay, more TACOs and MALICE clips. Merry fruitcage christmas... *_*

    1. TheFull9

      TheFull9

      The pricing on the UR-Tac stuff is pretty good. However, there's gonna be some people kicking themselves real hard when it all becomes standard issue for the USN in the not too distant future.

    2. Banshee_Will

      Banshee_Will

      But but they match your trousers CK. You have to buy it! I am looking forward to picking up some AOR2 when it becomes issue

    3. TheFull9

      TheFull9

      Heh, yeah I think I'd go for the (substantially cheaper) OPS UBACS if I wanted a top half to go with the trousers.

  16. raf reg: *Not* perfect scores. Armourer: 100% of shots on target. dats wat im talkin bout'

    1. Grindstone

      Grindstone

      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.

    2. TheFull9

      TheFull9

      Army guys do, not us though. Did plenty of running around in them though.

    3. Grindstone

      Grindstone

      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!

      Why more airsofters don't buy this every year, I simply cannot fathom. The guns and girls are beyond awesome, and half the profits go to helping veterans. Expect a video look at the calendar/card deck when they arrive with me shortly.

  18. For all those after any gucci US gear: Get your orders in today/tomorrow, lots of sales going down. http://www.soldiersystems.net/tactical-black-friday

  19. Could've been in The Old Republic beta right now if it weren't for my spam filter... ffs... <_<

  20. Anyone got any tips for adjusting kydex holsters? My new G-Code is destroying my handguns.

      Nope it's ok, just turns out that my HurricanE kit is out-of-spec, stock TM 1911s go in just fine. Good thing really because I went for multicam and it's not hydro-dip, they've wrapped the thing in actual cotton twill material, heating it up might have proved problematic.

  21. Mechanix: Any models that are good for heavy work outdoors in the cold?

      You sir, are a top bloke. When i'm in work I'm always having to switch between fiddly little jobs and then lifting big heavy stuff, trying to do that in the winter with the big thick issue leather gloves has always been the biggest PITA, but those look like they should do very nicely.

  22. MC G-Code OSH: Ordered satis. Should be interesting.
