PS: Those picture threads have unarchived. Thanks so much!

Not yet. No stress if it's not doable!

Thanks! It doesn't seem like they're coming out of archive, sadly - could you un-archive this one? Thanks again!

As a massive request - can we un-archive (or stop archiving) the picture threads? I feel a bit bad creating new threads for just one or two guns... 

Is this for the forum?

I hardly ever see LMGs on the field and I'd like to see more, especially if it means regular ARs/SMGs being limited to semi-auto. I'd happily take a couple of these pretty-clearly-just-a-dressed-up-AR-15 things if that's what it takes to stop literally everyone else wasting 100rds at a time from their regular AEG.

I think they're just RA-Tech's factory outlet, so yeah, they're reliable. I think I have had parts ordered on my behalf from them.

Anyway, don't buy the RA-Tech Mk.23 slide, just buy my gun. Or if you don't (grr), get a Mafioso slide kit instead - it's better than the RA-Tech.

Nice! Sadly (sort of) I already bought a PGC G17 slide, another Volante BBU and an ALG 6 Second with a clone T1...

Thanks! I've been keeping an eye on the Volante ones, which look promising aside from the eye-watering price. I guess he figures he's going to have to amortize the development costs of the new BBU solely over this handful of slides - I'll wait and see.

It's annoying! I can't even find any basic RMR slides - the only one ever made was a Guns Modify G26 that hasn't been in stock anywhere for years, and GM don't seem to have any plans to make more. I ended up going with a PGC G17 slide, and will probably end up grabbing a Six Second mount rather than a drop-in RMR mount.

I make the diameter of one of the realistic-size ones about 38-40mm including the heatshield. If you're planning on having it inside a rail system, note that it has a QD mounting system, the tallest bit of which (at least on mine) protrudes another 5mm.

I'm having a hell of a time trying to design an inline nozzle and knock-open valve. Can I PM you?

Dunno, depends on the condition and the mount. What're you asking? PM?

Cheers. I've grabbed the cheapest one I could find on AliBaba, and I guess we'll see how it goes!

TBH for what S&S are charging I'd be buying a deactivated SMLE and stripping it for bits.

I've got a master .xlsx with all the spending for actual and potential projects. I'm not sure if I'm hiding from it, or it's hiding from me.

No worries!

That'd be great, cheers!

Those are incredibly cheap - thanks for the heads up!

The MS1 actually looks pretty nifty! I'm trying to do this for absolute pennies (it's a 'value for money' loaner loadout) to see what can be done for £10 and a sewing kit. That said, the MS1 is sub-£30 from TacticalKit so I'll definitely consider that an option.

Hmm. Links to any photos much appreciated, I'm totally stuck.

It's the sling mounts I'm really stuck on. Seems that some of the Block Is got a KAC QD mount, but the CQD receiver end plates also seem to be popular. Can't find a decent thread with in-the-wild photos.

That is indeed Muswell Hill; at 01:04 he arrives at this junction: https://goo.gl/vDQPMU

The Bowman headsets are all over eBay and also not very expensive. The radios themselves are 2.4Ghz - the same frequency as a lot of WiFi routers, Xbox controllers, all that.

That's the one, CKinnerley. I'm not sure they need reprogramming (I'm not even sure they're compatible with regular radios, so nothing to reprogramme them to). 256 channels, bombproof and dirt cheap - I would have thought people would be more interested; I guess the standardisation doesn't exist in your average skirmish. Would be good for a team, though...
