Maybe you two should get together & start an old ladies sewing circle ?

Last update of the abomination , wasn’t happy with a ‘naked’ dust cover so sorted that and then decided it needed a tactigay sling , so made one of those as well , also decided to give the PBS a bit of character as well ! Can’t wait for its first kill(the souls that die of those who gaze upon it don’t count !?) ?

I joined the ever-growing AAP owners recently, and treated myself to the AA hop unit. Paired it with a 130mm ZCI barrel from @ak2m4 So I can replace the whole hop & barrel in one go, and keep the original set up if needed. Currently using a flamingo V2, but I've also got a couple of maple leaf buckings on order too. (I thought I had some more spare, but obviously not). Can't wait to get out & use it next weekend!

Cut this on our Waterjet today, so didn’t really make anything just drew it up. 10mm MS, now to keep it like that or do something with it ?

Terence Walter Arthur Thomas !?‍♂️

is it bad that i'm starting to think you might as well spray the remaining black parts a slightly darker shade of pink for the 2-tones effect. please, someone, snap me out of this.....

That is going to destroy people mentally, it’s a bad enough shun getting knife killed let alone by that bile! They maybe a lot of people with mental breakdowns or a strange type of PTSD. PS I think you should have a red/pink tracer set up.

I’ve been making kit for a good few years now and I find the best way too mark out the molle spacing is have a sheet of card with spacing marked on it that you’ve then cut with a craft knife on each ‘stitch’ line that you mark through on to the material in one go . I found if you mark up each line as you go along It’ll always go Pete Tong and you end up with crooked molle strips ! ?‍♂️

Three words Tackle that simply sums it up “Bored in Lockdown” Time wise : it isn’t taking that much time actually stitching it but it’s taken a wee while getting amongst it and the plus side of it is that it will actually fit me perfectly with adjustable options. Cost wise: since I bought most of the materials over the whole of lockdown this last year and mostly in “sales” I think I’ve spent like £100-ish on all those materials and I have enough to make another bandoleer or a full plate carrier, a couple of ghillie tops/hoods/gun wraps for my rifles which was the original idea but the reverse bandoleer has kinda taken over my first project

@TheFull9 Cheers matey, I thought as much but I’ve seen on tinterweb some plate carriers that don’t have a gap between the strips - not counting the laser cut panels - cuts down on the crafting by a third \o/

not so much a dreamer post, but a thing i noticed on an ad and it's not really worth making a new topic: why oh why g&g did you make the best airsoft mg42 on the market, a true work of art, then ruin it by stamping "made in taiwan" in massive fuckin letters on the side i'm not the worlds biggest markings freak but there are some lines that should not be crossed......

Great idea, think I will do that ? cheers

Glad I’m not the only one ?? Definitely keep as is , got the whole cool Rammstein ‘vibe’ about it ! with perhaps a few passes of matte clear coat to stop the rust ? ?

There are a few versions of the HAO one. If you are a lightweight snowflake like myself, then go for the 'airsoft' version, which weighs about the same as the Angry G at 231grams but better made and closer to RS spec in terms of dimensions. However, if you are a true SAS warrior, then go for the 'hardcore' version (their words ) at 505 grams. The thing is: any real suppressor will make a rifle front-heavy and mess with its weight balance that far forward. https://www.haoptwart.com/product-page/hao-s-556rc-dummy-pre-order There is also a HAO 'trainer' that looks a bit rubbish (open at the front) weighing 'the same as a real one' (again, their words) https://www.haoptwart.com/product-page/hao-s-sf-suppressor-trainers By the way, I bought their MWS bolt carrier and it is pretty but no better than the original. Probably shoots less well but it is pretty (did I mention that already ?) and has a reinforced back end so less wear? The old adage of " internals: japan, externals: taiwan" still seems to hold true. Have ordered the PTS ambi selector and will report back once installed. Only works with the matching flash hider as mentioned by Captain Darling

Bit weighty for a walk hanging.lol ?

I would highly reccomend the G&P ambi selector (KAC Style) solid build with very little free play, and defined selection. https://www.fire-support.co.uk/product/gp-ambi-safety-selector-for-marui-mws-gbb Out of stock at the moment via Fire Support but I'm sure you'll be able to get it somewhere else. ?

I use a guns modify ambi selector and it works ok. Not the crispest action bit it functions well enough...

@SeniorSpaz87 cheers, I was only expecting the engineering, cool how that all came about though, thanks for the long type up!

Given that we can shoot each other (outside) again real soon, thought I would bump this thread for the Easter weekend activities.

Personally love a Kimber ? Never had one mind, tried to build one a few years back but couldn’t find all the parts required.

Friend of mine who’s a jeweller told me off for not wearing the watch he sold me. “There’s no point in owning it if you’re not going to use it” She’ll get muddy, yup, but then I get to clean the dirty girl up

Advanced frame arrived yesterday for this beastie. I think she’s a looker, but I’m a sucker for cats

WAS DCS... nice bit of kit. Need the WAS PLB belt to go with it now.

Hi @lilredmachine! ? Glad you got it sorted, now you know how to deal with it! ? Will check out the video when I can! ??? Going to load mine soon! ? ?GAMBLE?

Shop have said I can return it, plus given me the name and number of their GBBR guy to speak to. Purchased from FireSupport who are awesome and who I will use again (and again, and again!) Seems from the Facebook TM GBBR group this is a feature, not a bug. IE they all do this and people just accept it ? Apparently the regular (non-marksman) sear is pretty good so may try that. The fit and finish on it is amazing, shame the double-bevel on the face gives this weird issue! HOME FIX: If you are happy taking the trigger box apart look for areas inside the shell where the trigger bar is rubbing due to torsion of off-set spring tension. Gently sand the corresponding area on the trigger bar to reduce the friction. Bonus points for sourcing 0.1mm steel shims for the hammer, trigger and sear posts to prevent torsion friction ? EASIER TUNE: Under the "tail" of the semi auto sear (rear left of trigger box as you hold the lower reciever) place small squares of gaffer tape under this, stuck to the trigger box, to reduce the sear engagement with the hammer. Don't add too much and check that you can't accidentally trip it by cocking the gun then slapping it around like it owes you money ? You should end up with some nice smooth take up to a clearly defined wall then a shorter, crisp break. Total cost £0.03p.

now i get to be reminded i still can't play
