  1. Boom heck yeah. Just won a tm fnx45 pistol from airsoft competitions. Just as my other pistils decided to crap the bed

  2. Been messing about with ideas for my ics mars sbr after getting bored with the plain 'stock' look. Nicked the peq battery box and afg off of my kwa erg and a cheap nasty light I had kicking about. Along with a big dragon qd suppressor. Thoughts or suggestions welcome as I'm not 100% sure on the afg and think something light a surefire one light would be better
  3. Might have a chance to play since the start of lockdown, for the first time a week on sunday. But the good ol mental daemons are having a field day. sigh

      I feel your pain bud. I'm booked in for Red Alert on the 12th but I'm still going through all the "what if" scenarios. That said, I had to go to Swindon yesterday for work and they're currently 5th worst place for the 'rona in the UK so...

  4. Whilst waiting on my stuff from FRV tailoring. I bought some Invader Gear Predator Trousers in m81 woodland to go with the new ubacs. Also topped up the bb's with another bag of ASG cursed .28's just incase i actually get to play anytime soon. Also picked up another osprey pistol mag pouch and some weird sort of multicamish snood to tick the 'face covering' box most sites seem to have for reopening. So over lockdown thats new ubacs and trousersand snood, backpack, pistol mag pouch, frv belt and sa80 sling and internal rebuild of my cxp ape along with rail covers for it. Could have probably bought a new gun for that lot of money if my ukara had been vailid lol.
  5. Just ordered a shooters belt in multicam and sa80 sling in multicam from frv tailoring. Now to wait for it arrive and inevitably sort out my belt set up again! hoping all the positive reviews are right and it’s really good kit
  6. New upper gearbox for the ics cxp ape. areived yesterday. Guessing my ape was one of the earlier models as the gearbox didn’t have the quick change spring system that’s used on them now. unfortunately The new upper case with an m120 spring. So I decided to swap the springs over. apparently reassembling the old gearbox proved that I know many interesting combinations of swear word.
  7. does anyone have a borken beat up old ASG mk23 they want to get rid of parts from. Mine seems t have lost the parts sc22 and 23 at some point and i need to replace them and figure out if its the reason the pistol doesnt work quite right

  8. Cheers skara. I was looking at getting the m81 predator pants pants they do.
  9. Most likely. Though it went in so many places i dont think there is anywhere else on the belt to try. Cant fit it onto my warrior cpc either as it doesnt have molly. Now i just need to figure out why some of the bb's keep getting stuck in the mk23 supressor. Then i can swap everything again to fit the dtd holster instead of warrior universal one. Oh on a side not and more on topic. Ordered a 'invader gear' woodland ubacs from Bullseye Country Sports on Wednesday at about half one. Got home yesterday at 2pm and it had already arrived! Fast Hoping the Invader gear stuff proves to be half way decent.
  10. Nothing fancy, just a dynatex bfg holster and malice clip to fit it to my battlebelt. Followed by several hours moving pouches about to make it all fit in a way i was comfortable with.
  11. over the last few weeks. New complete lower gearbox for my ics cxp ape. G&P Keymod rail cover set with finger stop. Backpack to go with my warrior cpc so i can carry some hydration. Hoping to order a complete upper gearbox for the cxp ape next week which will be a full internal rebuild and set of spares.
  12. Looking for some vinyl camo to apply to my ics cxp ape so it needs to be as sheet I can cut to shape. Any suggestions ?? Is it the same stuff used on cars?

  13. hmm replace my Battlebelt with a frv shooters belt. Or replace my 30/60 erg mags with 30/120 mags. Cant decide and cant afford both

      save the money and think about it more, don't want to make the wrong choice ?

      If your current belt is uncomfortable, get the FRV.

       

      If you want to replace mags, get the FRV belt.

       

      ;)

  14. Wondering how i can run a hydration bladder with a Warrior cpc without having to wear it like a backpack

      Beyond the Iceplate suggestion (not sure how well it would fit) from @SeniorSpaz87 I don't think you'll have another option if you want to avoid a backpack/bladder.

       

      The only other option would be a canteen on your belt.

      An Iceplate will fit anything thats designed to fit a SAPI. Something not often advertised about them is they come with straps to hang it on the inside of your vest as well if you already have a plate in/cant take a plate.

      I have plastic plates In the cpc so could remove the rear one. 
      now just to find someone who actually has the qore system in stock 

  15. Victory. Finally managed to get the rounded out screw from my kwa erg rail with an extractor. Now to figure out what size this little bugger is

      checked the measurements with a chart on a supplier and everything seems to match up to being coarse threaded. on a m3 8mm bolt it says there should be about a 0.7mm distance between the threads which there is. So fingers crossed. Ordered 6 in both m3 and m4 sizing's just in case.

  16. Any suggestions for removing 'rounded' out and possibly cross threaded bolts from a handguard. It will not budge and not a clue what to do, what size to replace it with if i ever get it out.

    1. ghostwalker

      ghostwalker

      Yeah they are the hex/Allen bolts. Figured with no airsoft , it was time to give my kwa erg a good clean up. Discovered the previous owner had Mullered one of the rail screws. Will try a Torx. Have also ordered a extractor set just incase.

      Look up "Grabit" I had a stripped screw head that I couldnt get out even when supergluing the alan key to the screw. The Bit removed the screw easily.

  17. Hoping to get out for a game on Sunday  before the inevitable lockdown happens. Plan to rock the ics ape and asg mk23 now everything’s working as it should

  18. TNT barrel and bucking combo for my mk23. now I just need to decide whether to leave the mk23 black or paint it up in some sort of woodland look
  19. Dtd holster for my mk23 and belt clip to attach it with. Hoping it will just squeeze onto the belt of my Alice webbing. But if not sure I can McGuyver a way around it
  20. Couple from my last game using my atacs ix and warrior gear with kwa erg.
  21. Thinking of jazzing you my ics cxp ape. Can’t decide. Bipod or new suppressor for it.

      I slid into a bunker and caught my shin on a hidden tree stump. Bruised the leg good and proper but didn’t notice the tear until u got home. Good ‘L shaped’ tear a couple of inches in each direction. Doesn’t look like anywhere has the leo kholer ones in stock anymore either :(

      At least that sounds fixable. Any good with a needle and thread? (could sew some fabric on the inside to reinforce it)

      Can get around one. Just means a weak spot in the trousers from now on. Probably a trip to a surplus store at some point for a new set of trousers and Ubacs of some sort

  23. Dragging my somewhat flu ridden backside out for some much needed airsoft action tomorrow.

      I’m down with that as long as I get the 2 weeks of self isolation. Yup 2 weeks off work with beer, pizza and chill time. 

  24. Off to drop the the cxp Ape in for some much needed tlc. at Combay Action Games shop. New motor and lord knows what else is needed to get her back to her best. 

  25. Any suggestions for a decent all year round pistol. Finding my green gas pistols just can’t cut it this time of year so thinking maybe c02. Budget about £150 including extra mag

      @ghostwalker fixing a MK23 feeding issue is a piece of cake.

      All you need to do is a light file job to the feed lips. Plenty of guides on the internet, even Noviboii made a video on it (on Vimeo, not YT, for some obscure reason). less than 30 seconds for 2 mags.

       

      STOCK TM GBBs should be the way to go, plastic slides means more gas efficiency and less propellant used to cycle the whole thing, which results in less cooldown (given you aren't speedsofting your way through the day, in that case nothing beats a HPA tap). Placing your magazines closer to your body (in pockets for example) could also work.

      @Skara @sonofsammo Think after much tinkering today i might finally have the asg mk23 working half way decently. Tried the filing down thing from Novs video but it didn't appear to be the fix. Then saw in another video that the little plastic rod that 'picks the bb up from the mag and into the hop' sometimes catches on the rubber valve infront of the feed lips. Filed it back a bit and hey presto.  It actually managed 10 rounds in a row!
