gisburn20 Posted May 21, 2011 Report Share Posted May 21, 2011 Righty ho, I have been making BB Bags for my team and friends for years now, and thought nothing of it. But it seems a new generation of Airsofters has arrived that have never seen these! , I was approached by a wide eyed newb at my last game who asked where he could get these wonderous bags, when I said I made them his eyes lit up and he asked how much I sold them for... This thread is the result. BB bags , various sizes, all these in the photo are for sale, £5 each inc postage and paypal the green ones (5x5 inches appx) hold about 2500 bbs , the larger DPM versions (6x5 inches appx ) are about 3000 rounds, both types have attached caps. Virtually silent to carry and use, Triple stitched seams and glued bottle neck (bottle cap colours may vary) Custom Versions I can make you any size you want (within reason - I made a camelbak sized version for our support gunner once, weighed 5kg when full !!!) I have DPM, olive green , and a couple of fashion camo materials at the moment, (pics to follow) I can do smaller sizes as well , I have a 2x3 inch bag that I use for pistol ammo, I have also made a bag that has an intergrated "pistol mag" sized speed loader and velcro opening as a prototype. (pics later) "D" ring on the bottom so you can hang it off your webbing? velcro for nametape? shockcord loop to roll it up? not a problem, just PM me what you need and I'm sure we can sort out a price. If you really really need a fluffy pink bb bag (thinking of you - National Airsoft Girls!) or bright yellow (people who tend to lose kit on the field...) that can be arranged. Neck Coolers I have also made some custom neck coolers for our team , similar to the issue ones seen in theatre but slightly longer and in DPM / Green/ fashion Camos. My kids love these, I had to make them one each for our last holiday, keep you cool for hours though evaporation. They contain a small amount of special crystals that absorb up to 400x their weight in water swelling up to a soft non-toxic gel. (about 3/4 inch thick when hydrated) The round things in the photo are helmet coolers, same idea but round with some hook velcro sewn in the middle , work well in helmets or bush hats (act like padding too!) stick or sew some loop velcro into said headgear to hold them in place, note , they are about 1/2-3/4 inch thick when soaked so allow extra room in that lid. Both will be made to order, £6 each inc paypal and postage they will be shipped dry, please state size and color required. They are very light- but absorb a heck of a lot of water and take about a week to fully dry out. for added cooling effect they can be stored in the fridge once hydrated, or even gently warmed in a microwave (once hydrated) to use as a heat pack! Any questions about these, drop me a PM please. (Swaps? ACM MEU mags or a Plastic TM 1911 slide) Jim. Link to post Share on other sites
Lightbulb Posted May 25, 2011 Report Share Posted May 25, 2011 Can I suggests you spray the bottle tops? The look is kinda ruined by the logos... Link to post Share on other sites
gisburn20 Posted May 25, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 25, 2011 Good call lightbulb, but I think paint would probably flake off quite quickly stuffed into a pouch, I will sand off any logos present on the next batch. Most of the lids are plain , and I will try to drink more pop with black lids to keep it "tactical"! I have some "tiger stripe" synthetic material to try next, although I might need to double layer it for strength compared to the cotton. On Topic One green BB Bag sold! (gold lid= Ginger Beer) and will be posted in the morning. Jim Link to post Share on other sites
