Went to Rebel Yell in the much publicized /asg/ trip. Sadly, turnout wasn't as good as it could have been, but it was fun enough to do next year. Hopefully we get some more faggots from here willing to go again to rock the Hawaiian shirts.

good pouch for holding thunder B bangers?
>>809284
Mine work fine here >>809275 although on one of them the strap is shorter than it's supposed to be, so it's a very tight fit over the top. Can just look up any sort of smoke grenade pouch or flashbang pouch. Could go for kydex too, I think the GMR store sells them and there's probably countless other places that do too.
>>809284
If you want cheap, Phantom make a good-enough pouch that will hold a thunder b or a tornado. Hold loads of other stuff too. Since I cut down for indoor season, I'm using them as GP pouches for my dead rag and tornado.
>>809295
I wouldn't know, I got it with a broken charging handle, broken bolt catch, cracked gearbox, and a broken hop up chamber. I'll get it fixed eventually though. I got screwed in a trade but everything with the guy got worked out.
Where the fuck do I find replacement parts for the Umarex UMP? Do I have to spend $25 on a plastic magazine release and spring from H&K?

why should I play airsoft over paintball? I don't know which one to pick, but I'm leaning towards paintball because it's more gamey and seems clearer when you've got a hit, but the longer ranges of airsoft are enticing. convince me that it isn't just LARPing and that I should drop some money on some Canadian Tire springer rifle to try it out
>>809446
Paintball is way more competetive and professional.
Airsoft is generally more relaxed and if you want, has some LARP aspects to it. You can also go full tryhard like in paintball, but don't expect everyone to do the same.
>>809451
>You can also go full tryhard like in paintball, but don't expect everyone to do the same.
You've obviously never seen the hardcore speedqb or milsim scenes.
>>809446
>why should I play airsoft over paintball?
Hurts less. Costs less. Better ergonomics on equipment. Much cleaner, so no paint on your special snowflake rare surplus camo. If your local paintball scene is full of assholes, the airsoft scene might be different since it's usually either/or. You can more accurately dress up like a soldier. Better LARPing opportunities. Greater selection of face and eye protection.
Of course, there's the whole honorsport con, and that's a big one. High-stakes competition is basically impossible due to lack of functional accountability. Plus if your local community is shit, you're not going to have a good time (and that goes for both airsoft and paintball), but otherwise, airsoft has quite a few advantages. The whole cost thing was what got me in.
>>809462
We have like one or two CQB fields in the capitol area which are rarely used and maybe a handful of milsim events per year in the whole country, so no, not really. The main bit of the hobby, weekend skirmishes, are pretty relaxed though. Sure there can be a milsim group doing their own things or overshooting done by speedsofters every now and then, but for the most part no one takes it too seriously.
A friend of mine who's pretty big in the painball scene says airsoft is like therapy for him. He doesn't have to train five times a week, hold strategy meetings or worry about his health. In common weekend skirmishes he can do whatever the fuck he wants on his own pace and no one is going to be blame him for not completing the objective. If he wants to play fast CQB with people who have good teamwork skills, he's going to play paintball and If he wants to shoot things but with lower stress levels, he's going to play airsoft.
pic somewhat related. That's him yesterday.
>>809446
I used to play paintball, still haven't gotten around to selling my stuff.
What drew me to airsoft was
1) Fuck paying $65 for a case of 2000 paintballs
2) Looks and feels more like using a real gun, which is especially nice if like me you have your airsoft AR set up like your real AR
3) Doesn't ruin clothing so I don't look like an idiot with pink stains on my fancy LBT gear
4) {And this is a big one} The size and coordination of milsim games is something that just doesn't exist in paintball.

What's next on your to buy list /asg/? Give us some pics.
Mine is a Type 89, not a weeaboo, I just really like the look of it (plus I haven't seen many of them around, and I am a very special snowflake).
>>809252
It looks to me like the helmet sits too high on your head.
What gloves do you use?
>>809599
An Altyn helmet, so I can truly become /slav/.
>>809599
PP-19-01 but that's coming up behind the computer rebuild and new camo and gear I'm looking to pick up over the next year (Slav camo, Haley D3 rig, various parts etc), so it might be waiting a while.
>>809168
dont some special forces guys actually use something like this now for wider field of vision?
Alright, got a better picture in my digital flora

Never knew that about the mirror frame, thanks
>>809612
My gloves are just cheapo Condor ones but they're nice and thin and grippy and haven't even started to fray after a whole summer of use. My helmet sits a little high because I have a big head cuz I'm 1/4 slav and because my lower facemask straps are underneath it

You don't need to bump on /asp/. It's a slow board.

>Scheduled delivery information is not available at this time. Please check back later.
it's because the UPS center in San Bernardino shut down because they found a package going to the shooters' house
and it's why I haven't received my new plate carrier yet
Does anyone have a recomendation gor goggles that fit over large frame glasses? aka the hipster glasses
>>809664
Good luck on buying a fnc or fn200, they're pretty rare here in US.
>>809706
ESS Land Ops. It's what they're made for.
I have been setting up my first plate carrier today and I am running into some concerns. I have a double mag pouch on each of the sides (only place I can put them) and I rest my arms by my sides anymore because of how far they stick out. Is that normal or are the mags too wide?
Second problem is that I can't find a comfortable way to position my gun sling without it getting caught on pouches or being in the way.
Also the only Velcro is on the chest part so I can only use 1 patch.
>>809738
Why can you not have the mag pouches in front? That's where they are meant to go, that's where every plate carrier is designed to have them.
Try a one point sling that you run through your shoulder pads, tends to keep your gun centered and the sling out of the way.
>>809745
There are only 6 inches on the front panel and the pouches require 4 each. It makes the whole thing lopsided if I put one on the front.
>>809754
Which is why basically everybody makes and uses triple mag pouches.
>>809664
My buddy has the G&G fn2000. I would not suggest getting one. Unwieldy piece of shit. very plasticy and the GB is not protected very well.
>>809451
>>809462
should I expect more roleplaying tryhard behaviour out of airsoft, and more gaming tryhard out of paintball? It seems like in airsoft, I'm likelier to get yelled at for not fitting the M I L S I M ~ A E S T H E T I C but won't be bothered about being terrible at the game, while in paintball, I'll get yelled at for sucking shit and being a noob but no one will really care about my gear or style as long as it gets points.
>>809466
gr8 post and quite informative but it raises another question
>High-stakes competition is basically impossible due to lack of functional accountability.
are there tiny paint pellets? I remember hearing about some kind of compacted powder pellet that's supposed to leave marks, but works in airsoft guns.
I don't really care about high stakes, but it does worry me that cheating seems so easy.
>>809482
> Looks and feels more like using a real gun,
This is something I'm drawn to a lot, paintball markers do look dumb as fuck and seemingly are all based on the same pattern.
Thanks m8s, I think I'll go with airsoft and see if I can find any bros to play with. The barrier to entry seems a lot lower and I'm poor as fuck and want something I could also target shoot with by myself, so airsoft seems better suited than paintball for me
Last question, would it be mad horrid to take a low-powered BB gun like a Slavia 618 to a game? I'm talking sub-400fps
>>809599
I'd love to get a PSG-1, but am not keen on the TM one. So the only thing on my list doesn't yet exist.
>>809768
Nobody gives a shit about your gear in airsoft. Especially not enough to get mad at you about it.
>>809768
>BB gun
Absolutely unacceptable.
>>809768
the powder BB's exist but are not used because they tend to jam up the guns
>>809679
Fuck no, please.
Got an order from Airsplat I wanted to get next week.
>>809599
Already bought the Type 97 and a Sig550.
Next would be a Real Sword SVD if I can.
>>809649
No, stop considering springer rifles, its the same god damn fucking story everytime.
NOT GOOD TILL YOU FUCKING DROP MONEY INTO IT.
>>809851
>Type 97
>Sig 550
>Real Sword SVD
That is some top hat taste.
I was thinking of getting the CYMA SVD one with polymer furniture and just slapping in some RS parts. But I'd only really be doing it for the looks, I'm not convinced by DMRs in airsoft, and length seems to be unwieldy.
>>809865
I like the Cyma SVD, but I have been in love with the RS SVD since the day I learned about airsoft.
>>809599
Either a Scorpion Evo or some sort of Spetsnaz
>>809158

Doesn't A&K make an AEG SVD now?
>>809964
Evike reviews say its shit
>>810033
I don't trust a man name tyler.. also the other reviews had good things about it
>>810033
It's A&K
>>809768
>are there tiny paint pellets?
Paint pellets blow up in barrels due to the pressure and gums up the barrel, and when that paint gets sucked back into the cylinder, it gums everything up internally. Powder pellets do the same thing. Cheating is "easy" in that any asshole can shrug hits, but habitual cheaters are easy to catch eventually, and a good community and field staff will deal with it harshly. It's just that if an entire game with a $100k prize money comes down to one called hit, you're going to find quite a bit of problems. When the only thing on the line is worthless bragging rights, folks tend to take things less seriously and are willing to take a loss, because usually when you get hit, you put yourself in a situation where you could get hit, or someone outmaneuvered you through their own skills.
So unless your scene is shitty and cheaters are enabled, don't worry about it. You airsoft for fun, everyone else is doing the same.
>>810033
I mean these people are the same ones that don't know if an ACOG will fit on an M4.
>>809707
Isn't the only FNC discontinued?
>>809649
The CYMA AEG is better. Based on the Real Sword while the A&K is based on the incorrectly proportioned King Arms.
>>810146
Which is in turn based on the Classic Army.
>>809707
FN2ks are actually fairly easy to get. They actually even restocked them on Evike this month.
>>810138
It's not. G&G still make it. Theoretically, Ares makes one too, but who knows these days. The difference is that Cybergun are shit and the FNC is currently in some sort of licensing limbo. You can still import them though. Standard stock G&Gs don't come with the FN trades so I can't see customs having much of a fit.

Ordered a WE G19 from China the orange tip that came on it was a shitty piece of orange plastic tape. Ripped that shit off, gonna just paint the tip of the barrel. Is there a specific type of paint I should use?
Also, is it bad if the orange tip is just BARELY visible, since the barrel barely extends passed the slide?
>>810221
>Having an orange tip at all
>>810222
Some arenas require it.
Also, since I have a real Glock 19, probably not a bad idea to have a clear visual indicator of which is which.
>>810225
What shithole do you live in?
>>810231
I live in USA dude, Georgia. I prefer playing indoor arenas instead of woods, and some places require tips.
Besides, it's a pretty good idea to be able to tell apart real steal and airsoft at a glance.
>>810225
>Some arenas require it.
>>810234
Cool, thanks. Are they good guns? Anyone have experience, only problem I've heard of is that the stock sometimes fails
Is there anywhere in the US to buy a knockoff EOTech?
>>810321
dragonredairsoft, but the quality looks dodgy from what I've heard about cheap-shit EOTechs
AIM-O is a company that makes good knockoff EOTechs and ACOGs
>>810327
All sold out, anywhere else?
>>810255
I would assume so. They're G&G top tech guns. Externally they're some of the best airsoft grade out there, and internally they're more than serviceable with a V2 gearbox.
>>810350
Yeah, really liking what I'm seeing, I'm thinking a T1 knockoff for an optic because its small and unobtrusive and would keep the look overall the same
>>810341
Try toys r us
Anyone have any experience with LCT airsofts? My friend has a "broken" one i can buy for $50. The engine works but it grinds on the first gear, doesn't make full contact
>>810388

LCTs are basically the best AK externals you can get and usually run $350-$400.
>>809599
I'm going to get an AR as my 2016 project, yay.
>>810388
Ensure it is LCT and doesn't have any other broken shit and buy it
>>809599

Ditch the plate carrier, get a belt.
Hey /asp/, I'm thinking of getting into airsoft and I need to know what battery + charger goes well with a CYMA AKM? (CM-048M)
According to e-hobby Asia, the 048M uses a "Mini / Handguard (Nickel / Li-Po)" battery. The pastebin doesn't have anything about batteries, and the guides from Airsoft GI is confusing since I don't have the "gun" yet to get an idea of what is going on.
Also, I want a few mid-cap magazines to go with my gun, would a CM-MG-16-C71 be acceptable? I got a few hi-cap mags from a friend, so I want some mid-caps to use every once and awhile.
What's the Airsoft community like in the UK?
Specifically the north?
>>810507
Same. Right now I only have two mag pouches and two canteens and it feels sparse as fuck. I'm planning on getting a buttpack, an E-tool with the plastic case, a pair of SDWGs, an angle flashlight, and possibly a PASGT for when I'm not doing super duper speshul forces scud hunter.
>>810542
Cymas shoot hot out the box, they need powerful batteries. The buttstock has plenty of space, pretty much any battery with a mini Tamiya will do. Quite a few people are using LiPo's instead of Nimhs these days, because they simply are better, so read up on those, they need their own balancer chargers. Go lower volts and high mAh, so you don't break your shit. All the ones I would recommend are out of stock on ehobbyasia, so good luck with your search.
Magazines for AK's are very much interchangeable, shouldn't be worries there.
>>810542
The CM048 is an amazing AK for starters. The battery and charger are included so you wouldn't need to buy them. I am running all my AK with a 7.4v LiPo and I've had no problems.
Where are you based? As >>810552 says they shoot too hot (~420FPS) for most European fields; but some AK are picky with mags. I have 3 and not all of them can share the same mags.
>>810548
Apparently it's good up there. I'm not from there but all the videos and events suggest it's cool
>>810551
Muh old school nigguh. ALICE IFAK box on your back, you needs it.
>>810548
>What's the Airsoft community like in the UK?
Generally pretty good, expect to pay around £20-25 to attend skirmishes if you're not a member of the field. Also be prepared for Top Gear tier humour/sensibilities, this is either a good or bad thing depending on personal taste.
I was in Leeds for uni, went to a few different sites, all fairly good. Northerners are pretty no-nonsense. No complaints from me.

I might also replace the compass pouch on my left shoulder strap with an empty decon container.

UAE. Airsoft is a very small hobby here compared to R/C shit, around 95% of airsoft players are expats. Laws are very tight regarding airsoft compared to paintball hence the low number of players and interest.
Importing guns is impossible unless ordered through the only verified club in the country, which orders all special requests once a year. Otherwise, I would have to stick to cheap chinese crap usually on stock that even the shopkeeper recommend against.
>>810574
Wow I didn't even know that you could bbwar in the UAE.
Just bough this from my friend, full metal, lipo ready, wires don't pinch.
Only problem is it refuses to fire, and doesn't have a barrel, easy fixes though.
This is going to sound really dumb but I would like an answer. I bought a knockoff EO TECH and I was wondering if it is good to use. Because according to my understanding the real models work by shooting the beam at the eye but the lens prevents damage to your retinas, will a knockoff work the same way or am I risking fucking up my eyes?
>>810682
It's probably a red dot that only looks like an EO Tech so it doesn't even work the same way.
>>810542

Go with Cyma midcaps. They're cheap and the performance is topnotch. They feed perfectly even with guns that have riddiculous rate of fire.
>>810552
Newer Cymas should have very high torque and therefor very energy efficient neodymium motors. Unless the gun is shimmed like shit, it shouldn't draw too many amps.
>>810559
Batteries included with chink guns are historically trash if not dangerous. I would stay away from them especially since good quality LiPo-batteries are dirt cheap nowadays. I also wouldn't count all of Europe as one as the rules vary by country and field. Generally the velocity rules in the outdoor fields are around 420FPS for full auto and 500FPS for semi auto. I know that at least Britbongs have bit lower FPS limits but in Berget for an example, machineguns are allowed to shoot 460FPS full auto. Chinks are also notorious for their poor QC as their guns can shoot almost anything between 350 and 450FPS, but usually around 400FPS.

No, most European fields (UK, Germany, France, Spain, Portugal...) are 350 FPS for semi&auto, 400 for support (except some retarded countries like Germany where FA is under ~1J), 450 for dmr and 550 for bolt action.

Paintball is more like "sports", just running around and shooting each other.
Airsoft is more using strategy and stealth generally.
Not saying one takes more skill or is better or whatever, that's just generally how it works. People that play paintball want to rush in and shoot stuff, people that play airsoft want to organize tactics and accomplish objectives and win. (and yes, even the "we play for fun, not to win" airsoft groups focus on winning, they just don't admit it)
>>813472
Have you ever played paintball?
>>812884
There wouldn't be any way to get an FNC for around 300 in the states short of second-hand. Pretty much every store will sell it to you for 390+ as it were.
>>813522
Thing is I don't think there even are any that sell in the states
>>813536
They used to, but if you look at the stores that still have them listed, or have the AK5D in stock, (which is literally the FNC with the Swedish furniture and fire selector) you'll typically see $395 or more.

Oh, huh. Too bad that one isn't even the good Swede model though with the green furniture and full length barrel, and whats different about the Swede selector?

Lets get some budgetsoft loadouts, including all the wearable gear.
I'll always shout about the G&G CM series being the kings of budgetsoft.
>>813747
Budget?
Yeah G&G CMs are the kings and the kings of shit. All airsoft stores are sponsored by G&G so guess why there are so many CMs arround.
They are a lottery, you might get a lemon or a fine shooter but for the money I wouldn't risk, just get any other brand.
>>813747
CYMA CM045 - $120
7 plum CYMA midcaps - $70
Chicom surplus chest rig - $15
Valken MI-5 facemask - $23
Fingerless leather gloves - $7
Total cost - $235
Wear Adidas tracksuit and Sambas for maximum Cheeki Breeki.
>>813751
That's funny, you're funny.
In a slightly related budget note, has anyone ever tried these? I want to get something black for the CQB sites nearby but I don't want to invest a huge amount in something I might not use much.
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/131169423584?var=430386968202
>>813756
Dude what's your budget
About the belt and suspenders, for general airsoft use it's ok, the problem is the belt buckle, too flimsy and can open, also straps everywhere.
I had one of those until I upgraded to an Emerson belt and way better and comfier without breaking the bank.
And for real don't go with a Combat Machine.
>>809158
I've been to all of MSW's games except for ROR and AOD. God I love blank fire. Anyone been to AMS games?
>>813763
It's hard to get a lot of tactical stuff in the UK compared to the US due to a lack of gun culture, so I sort of have to go with what I can get.
As long as it lasts at least one skirmish I'll use it to consider getting a more expensive belt, maybe a Warrior belt or something.
Also there is nothing wrong with the G&G CM and GR lines, they've put solid GR internals inside a decent plastic case for next to fuck all moolah.
>>813770
Surplus stores, man. If you want cheap quality shit on a belt, get a webbing kit. Varusteleka still has NVA rigs in stock for 16 quid.
>>813775
Only ever see webbing in surplus stores in CS95 colours. I'm really after something black. If they do have black stuff it tends to just be Viper trash and exorberant prices.
>>813770
Buy online. And a shit is hard, you have one of the largest online stores in UK, military1st.co.uk
If you want to get that shit get it, but then don't come asking what we think then you are doing the shit you want.
I'm telling you because I had many mates with CMs that were pieces of crap that went back to the store and few that worked well out of the box.
>>813764
Never been to a MSW game
Looks like fun
For a PMC look should I wear standard khakis or are there companies who make more rugged khaki looking tacticool pants?
>>814072
Helikon or 5.11 Tactical do good tactical khakis with kneepads, etc.
>>814072
There are loads of extra rugged khakis out there, man. Dungarees: double fronted, cargo pocketed, ripstop, a good pair of dickies are cheaper and just as functional as a pair of 5.11 tactical pants.
>>813764
How does blank fire work in games? It doesn't hit anyone with anything, whats the point and benefit?
>>814243
They don't allow blanks in any of our games (or at least they were just for immersion).
I'd never call a hit if they're shooting at me with blanks
>>814243
At MSW its for immersion mostly. If you get caught in the open you are encouraged to take a hit but not required.
>>810233
Sweet didn't know of any other Georgians who browsed /asg/
anyone here know anything about the ICS G33?
thinking about purchasing one pretty soon.
I wanted to get a second opinion.

>>814416
I almost puked all over my room. As if the regular G36 wasn't ugly enough they've decided to make an even uglier version
So what's some of the cheapest multicam I can get to use when it's required for events?
>>814427
I guess everyone has there own opinion. I ran a g36 for 3 years. Honestly I think its a nice modern twist on the standard g36
>>814506
what's your price range?
>>814524
Well I spent $70 on my DESPAT, I'd like to keep it around there or less considering that I'll basically only use Multicam a couple times a year when milsims force me to.
>>814531
Propper makes some in the 40-50 dollar price range.
http://www.amazon.com/Propper-Mens-MultiCam-Large-Regular/dp/B001EJ5HOA/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1449615606&sr=8-3&keywords=multicam
>>810551
Buy a lbv loads of additional pouches and you could be super duper scud hunter
>>809599
An AR-18, GBB, metal body.
Nobody makes one though.
Like, I could settle for a AR-180B with a top rail and AR magwell (I'd welcome it), but there just isn't any. I've only seen plastic AEGs
Also, I don't think there's anyone making a regular size Uzi which is a metal GBB, which strikes me as odd, as it seems so obvious.
>>814531
Look for used OCP uniforms on Ebay. I got a Med Long OCP ACU set for $35.
>>814531
I personally use All Terrain Tiger because its slightly unique but still multicam and people will be ok with its use on a multicam team, got my set for about $150 brand new Propper/Truspec
Either got it from MilitaryClothing or MilitaryUniformSupply, can't remember which

WHY PLAY AIRSOFT??? PPFFT SOCCER IS WHERE IT'S AT
>>814767
Why the negative opinion? I've heard good things about it.
>>814778
simple, it's not FOOTBALL that's why
>>814778
>he paid $90 for a plastic lpeg that will break in five minutes
>>814765
Its a clone of the G&G UMG and it's a pretty good for a DE gun. I think you'll find the DE M89 to be a good beginner gun.
>>814783
The DE UMP has a V3 gearbox. These models are actually good for how much they cost. Just avoid the HK slap, its a cheap chinese clone so you can't really expect the pot metal to be anything besides shit.
no worries
Whats the general opinion on ICS? They have a few cool guns that are rarer designs and aren't insanely priced
>>814795
Damn right. your mistake not to play football
>>813057
I do, just gotta edit my face out.

How to prepare? What do I need? Do people actually use their radios and stuff?
>>814966
Danke, ya the whole modern tacticool thing puts me off, but hey to each their own.. Sorry about the last pic being sideways.
>>814941
S'all good, probably better then mine. I'd like to take mine out to reenactments but I still have a way to go. Though for the game a AGM STG and a PPS k98 are my goals. By the way did you upgrade your Mp 40?
Why is there an AirSawft general in my /alphaspee/ and not on /toy/?
>>814969
>Do people actually use their radios and stuff?
Yes. In fact, they get on your ass if you blow off platoon communications. As for what to bring and how to prepare, check the tascop and the video they post at the end of their FAQ. I'll save you the trouble of having to look for it on their poorly conceived site.

I've got a late war heer loadout that I take out with the MP40 for removing burgers/crumpet, and a British paratrooper outfit for when I'm not wearing that.
Pic related, it's me and my bro manning an MG42.
>>814969
Do you have a team to play with? Because going alone is shitty. You will need some basic stuff: Water, extra clothes, radio, food and an extra gun just in case.
Radios are essential, not because >muh operator but because you might need them in case of emergency, because shit usually happens.
>>815036
Because we are an Alternative Sport you newfag, we've been here for a long time.
Does any manufacturer make heatshields for airshit shotguns?
I have a medium length G&P 870 that I want to put one on. Doesn't have to be metal, I'd be fine with plastic.
Also, are there any good ways of mounting a laser to one that doesn't involve a top-rail? Like, does anyone make one which fits in place of a magazine-tube extension, under the barrel?
>>815036
Because /toy/ are such anti-gun cucs that they turn aggressive at the idea of toy guns.
>>815224
Build it your own if you don't find any, it's just sheet metal with holes.
An alternative would be buying a cheap chink shotgun and removing the heat shield that comes with it.

Do you guys think tippmann will expand their gbbr lineup with different guns like a mp5 or lmgs?
>>815241
Who the fuck knows.
>>815241
Maybe slowly, I guess that Tippmann being an American company actually has to obey the law and not just ride roughshod over other companies' IP. So any replicas of real weapons would most likely have to be licensed.

Pressure switch is pretty mandatory too, bonus if it's zoomable or has a strobe mode.

We're interested, but we're kinda afraid of shipping our stuff, etc.
Do you have a website in English?
>>815334
Hell yeah, summer can't come fast enough.

It'd have to go on the list of shit I wanna do though as I won't be able to hang around after Berget.

>>815359
Yeah, I've looked around the site and found them linked on the PDF. Are you with the org? Do you know if there is a mailing service like the one in Berget to send equipment, etc.?
>>815363
Sorry, not with the organizers, but they're OK people. I'm just shilling, shit like this hasn't happened in Finland on this scale, like ever.

Eagletac G25C2, can be had for around $120, pressure switch is another $15.
Rated to 1000+ lumens and it has a strobe mode
>>815238
I don't have the tools or knowhow to work metal (though it is indeed a very simple lenght of stamped sheet metal), but I guess it's worth considering prying one off a cheapo gun.
You'd think at least one manufacturer would put out heatshields, even if just cheap plastic ones. I wanted a vertical pumpgrip like Duke Nukem has, and that was easier said than done, G&P makes the part, but they don't send parts out to order.
I finally found one site with shoddy English that had them in stock, arrived with an invoice saying it was "model toy car parts". I mean, the grip was in there, but the fuck was with the invoice?
>>815683
That's for customs.
My shit always turns up marked as toy parts.
>>815145
Noice, always good to know someone to trust crew weapons.Your uniform, is that HBT? Also Is that the AGM MG42, been thinking about nabbing that as well, or finishing my DAK kit. Was thinking of doing an english kit but the arms are pretty limited to do so.

I've put a tightbore in it, but you'll need to dremel the hop up unit in order to pull out the shitty brass barrel. I've got a JG Blue, ZCI gears, Nukefet, and r-hopped ZCI barrel waiting to be placed in it.
I've done more work on the StG since it's my favorite (same treatment that the MP40 will be getting).
For the Kar98, I suggest finding some boneyard Dboys one and a VSR-10/JG-BAR 10 to cut up and place inside. That's what I've done.
Got a crapload of links I've bookmarked if you want them.
Hey guys, you like my new Famas?

>>816081
Nice, did kinda the same with the Mp40 other then the barrel and hop up. Got a new barrel and hopup, but this hop up is having feeding issues, bought a new one just incase.
I've heard of these K98 conversions. Looks like a good idea, but haven't found a good guide yet. If its not to much trouble, ya I'd like to see those links.
>>816284
>>814243
Blank fire guys usually roll with tags or an airsoft sidearm. If you hear blank fire, rifle grenades will sometimes follow. Utterly terrifying
>>815943
Yeah, my brother's in wools and I'm in HBTs. I'd originally intended to keep it on a budget because of the money and time I'd spent on my paratrooper gear, but that didn't last long. The MG is an AGM, but it wasn't ours - the site owner let us use it for the day because master race and all that. Really nice gun, but heavy with lots of pot metal. I'd be afraid to use it outside of static defence games in case I went arse over tit and broke it in half.
British weapons are sadly lacking (as they were in real life, hohoho). No-one does a decent, affordable Lee-Enfield, and Brens are nonexistent unless you're willing to settle for a 'close enough' Zb.26. AGM do a really nice Sten which, despite looking like a mangled robot cock, handles beautifully. I actually had my Sten mocked up to look like an Arnhem era Mk.IV (picture is related).
>>816410
That's stupid.
Just wait to get lost at night on a 16km2 forest and see if radios are essential or not.
Or lose part of your squad and then pray to meet at HQ again.
>>816416
>Brens are nonexistent unless you're willing to settle for a 'close enough' Zb.26
Basically the same thing, just different cartridge and magazines
Now, I know way more about 'real steel' than airsoft, but given that everything (that matters) shoots the same 6mm plastic pellets, could one not make a .303 looking curved 30rd mag for the Zb.26 so that it looks like a BREN?
>nobody makes an AUG A3 GBB
>nobody makes a GBB for any model of the AUG
What's up with that? You'd think Die Hard, Counter-Strike and a million Calladoodys would make it popular enough with kids that at least the classic model would exist as a one. Or do the kids not give a shit about GBBs and it's all about the AEGs?
>>816453
They're not essential for grunts. You're stupid for not having reading comprehension. Each Squad is required to have three radios.
>>816461
I'm sure WE will do one eventually. They're pretty decent on their own, but once RA tech makes the reinforced parts, that's when shit will finally get real.
I have a legit question.
For those of you that roll out to OPs with guns other than ARs and AKs where the FUCK do you faggots go?
I always see some meme-lord going on about his snow flake meme gun at STARTEX but by the time ENDEX rolls around yall niggas disappear like that vape smoke from that dildo you suck on the replace your boyfriend's dick.
