I've lent my battery for my mp5 to my friend, just as I've pretty much fixed it too, it just needs a new gearbox, I also am very familliar with how it works now too :)
I've also chosen a different gun that my friend suggested, and warsaw agreed that it was decent, so dual suggestion is good.
I bought bb's silicon oil and the gun for a total of 181$ after shipping
the gun was 160$, bb's where 30$ silicon oil was 7$
10% off + free shipping ftw.
It all comes down to the piece of gear that you're using, the Blast Belt that came with my armor chassis requires some reinforcement in the stitching where I hook on my drop leg holster... All the other MOLLE stuff on the armor chassis is very durable when compared to actual stuff. That said, the majority of my pouches are all made out of high quality Cordura (look for this material when buying gear, it's great) which is the same stuff my real Eagle plate-carrier (old black one) is made out of.Quote:

They're from Russia and it doesn't look like there are any North American dealers (looking into getting our local airsoft dealer to become one).

To be honest, I don't look at tactical gear at all, so I couldn't tell you if we have that piece of kit man.
Also, Real Sword only makes the Chinese AK...do not want for Soviet kits, since it's not even close to the Soviet makes. If you are doing a Soviet loadout, you want VFC for any AK-74 series and for the AK-105. If you are doing a Soviet AKM or AK-47, you want G&G. Ideally, you would buy the legit wooden pieces separately and mod them to fit (doesn't take much); the plastic on the stock airsoft AKs is passable though.
The SVD, however, is unsurpassed. They did a bang-up job on that, and I really, REALLY want to buy it but my desire for a WWII loadout stays my hand. Classic Army can't hope to measure up to the RS version.
Yea, that's why I'm getting my blast belt reinforced since the stitching is probably below that 300 mark and it's definitely not triple-stitched lol...
What do yall think of my concept armor chassis shoulder badges?

I like the top one with tan threading more, but the OD threading stands out a bit more. Suggestions?
EDIT - Going to an outdoor game on April 2nd, and it's going to be the first time I get to try out my GoPro HD HERO camera for airsoft... I already mentioned the helmet/head mounts I have configured, but I just figured out how to use the vented helmet mount as a gun mount:
Should be fun!
Top one is cooler. Make it with IR reflective material.
Oh god I want it, it's even got Portal turret sounds!
The video from Operation Mason Relic is now up from last year, Op Mason Relic was the largest even Canadian airsoft event with a total of 214 players for two days of semi-urban environment airsofting!
The gun I eventually chose comes in today, I'll be giving a review over the weekend of it after I go airsofting this weekend.
e: heres a crappy phone pic
Do something about that orange tip and you're in business! I'm a fan of full stocks for a few reasons though, you can usually wire them up to hold large batteries and they're also heavier which generally gives you better handling control. Looks good though, the metal is metal I assume?
Here's some of the video from that April 2nd game I went to:
