The 'What have you just bought' Thread

Ares amoebo 013 honey badger. 552 sight and a torch to go with it all .. Just waiting on battery extension as I run 11.1v lipos on my AEG's.

 
Just received my Warq helmet/face mask.

Just finished it's product development after a year of following ordered on Christmas eve and came today!


Looks interesting.  Any chance that you could do a review after you have used it a few times.  be useful to know whether it lives up to the anti-fogging hype and vision stays clear.

I will report back once I have spent a day with it on. I am praying the anti fog is good, I've worn full face masks before and hated it this has lots and lots of ventilation though so I am hopeful.

Too much JD over the last couple of days means I now have a G&G HK416 and a TM Hi-Cycle M4 Patriot coming in the post, and I’m still on the look out for a KWA Vector, oh dear......

 
You say worrying, I say hilarious haha. It was a mag flash shotgun shell in the dark. A .209 primer is probably not even going to emit a flash at all. I’ve never noticed any at a game. They are just a mild bang

The 209s give a small flash, certainly enough to see, especially in a dark building.  You say lost his vision I assume you mean it was abit blotchy for a while as I have yet to see a grenade blind me completely (play at the Gaol so have had a fair few grenades land next to me in that time)

Video is me testing a trmr on 209s and shows the flash

Can’t say I’ve ever noticed the flash in the mill, but it is brightly lit. It was a substantial purple patch that took a good while to completely fade. I don’t think it would have happened if it wasn’t dark and weren’t looking directly at the impact. 

 
Just picked up a replica 551, a fast mag pouch in a-tacs fg and a OD utility/admin pouch to hold a notebook and a few pens/pencils to write stupid stuff on maps..

A multicam onetigris mask is on it's way.

Next will probably be a 2nd hand CA M4 to use as a base for a HPA gun and a couple of pouches to complete my JPC loadout.

And maybe a better way to hold my gopro.

I have now started the process of buying up all the upgrade parts for all of the RIFS I have bought in the past 6 months. 

Just manage to pick up an SRC G36 Gen 3 gearbox with 8mm bearings to replace my XM-8's gen 2 gearbox with 6mm bushings. It's a small upgrade really, but I found the gearbox for dead cheap brand new and they are very uncommon. (40 euros!). 

Also picked up a spare SRC G36 hop unit. They are proprietary to the SRC XM-8 as you cannot change the magwell to a standard type unlike the SRC G36. Best to always have spares especially when rare and no longer made!
