Calm down fellas, it's a trollpost.

http://www.cardella.tk/2011/04/tiger-stripe-raid-bdu-mod.html < - Full writeup Raid mod Tiger stripe. The right shoulder pocket is now velcro, and has a flag on it. Left will be too, as soon as I get my sewing stuff here at school.

Yes, I know the JG SVD isn't accurate. I can list all the differences off the top of my head - THAT IS IRRELEVANT, AND NOT WHAT I ASKED. I'm asking if anyone likes it due to MAG COMPATIBILITY, nothing else. Not true, Sean has one. The point is not having to buy extra mags for an AEG that you can't swap with AKs. I buy my own mags, too. It's just something the Armalite crowd likes to throw around - "Swap mags with your squad!". I don't see anyone complaining about the G36 magwell conversions... Besides the fact they suck, that is.

My local Wal-mart actually had some. Probably not as tough as the real deal, but alot cheaper. Back it with canvas or cordura and it's good to go.

I know I'll probably get flamed for this, but does anyone see the JG SVD as a good thing, because it allows you to swap mags with your AK-using teammates?

The GP-25 and GP-30 were developed after the AK74 was put into service. Not to mention, there's no room for the stock to fold. You'll only find side-folder pics with a grenade launcher.

The lump of epoxy on the tip is still wet, that's why I haven't sanded it. It's a tight little CQB package. I just chopped 6 inches off the front.

The Nozzles and loading arms are the important bits. I was surprised about how sturdy the DE trishots were.

You can make your own SPAS 12 cage out of sheet metal or PVC. People do it to build prop M41A Pulse Rifles.

Care to back that up with a link?

Oh Really?

The greasy smudge on the stock is sweat from my cheek, just fore of the velcro.

Paying for gear sucks. Make your own!

I've got one of those! (JG G36C w/CA 1.5x carry handle) Pardon the group shot, it's all I have of my G36 in current form.

If you haven't seen the movie, he's essentially DANCING THROUGH A HAIL OF BULLETS. Realism isn't a big deal, it's sci-fi.

It's nice to take opportunities to make fun of my friends, however.

He did that on purpose, he's quite proud of it.

The Cleric Sidearm isn't actually a Beretta in the movie, it fires straight away. If I remember correctly it's treated as though it's automatic at some parts. It's a scifi movie, they even use a WA2000 as a shotgun. Real life rules (I suppose "Physics" would be a better term) don't exactly apply to films.

For those of you who might want to make your own SL8 stock, that's almost full size.

On the vanilla M14, I'm pretty sure there are threads - But it requires you to twist off the front sight. The Socom/Scout/Whatever has a threaded barrel, no need to remove the front sight. You can probably fit the battery in. The buttplate can be removed with a few screws, cram your batt in, and close it back up. Google it, perhaps. I remember seeing some reviews try to put different batteries in them. If that helps at all...

That'd be a great way to jam your gun.

First paintjob. Needs a little work, and better pics (It's darker in real life), but it should do the job just fine. I'm in a bind, there's a skirmish tomorrow and I don't have a vest/chest rig to carry my mags in. I'd like to carry at least 4, does anyone have a suggestion?
