Airsoft Thread

There are a couple of No. 4's around here but they're custom made out of real No. 4's with TM M14 internals.

what the fuck is this shit

[Cortexian]

I thought I explained already... Airsoft is serious business around here, lots of people have guns made from mostly real steal parts, I've even seen some converted real steal Colt Canada C7's gutted and modified to take airsoft bits.

Yes it's expensive, hard, and time consuming to gut real steals into airsofts but the results are visually stunning to say the least...

Enfields (mainly SMLEs, not so much No.4s) are common here too due to the Lithgow SAF, but I still wouldn't do it. One day they may not be as common...

Didn't add this in my previous post but the gloves I ordered to go with this kit arrived today, they're pretty good knock-offs of the "Oakley Factory Pilot Glove" in Khaki:






Fucking Canada Post, apparently these were delivered on the same day my chassis was except we "weren't home" and they sent them to the local post office instead. They didn't even leave a note on the door to notify me they were delivered, I had to wait for eHobby Asia to send me the tracking number, low-and-behold "attempted to deliver, now located at post office". Ironic that I got the tracking number AFTER they actually "attempted" to deliver them to my house...

Never used Canada Post, probably never will. UPS is the way to go.

Sure... If you want to get nailed with duties and services charges that are usually half or more of the packages price.

Never happened with anything I've ordered.

[Cortexian]

Through the hundreds of things I've had shipped to me it's all been either:

UPS - Fast service, accurate tracking, insanely expensive shipping related charges.
Canada Post - Usually takes a few days longer than UPS, tracking isn't updated nearly as fast, completely free shipping.

Canada Post every time imo, unless I NEED NEED NEED it NOW NOW NOW!



Anyways, I was at DusterBusters house yesterday to get some green-screen backed photos of my airsoft kit (and to play some Battlefield Bad Company 2 Beta). Here's a couple rough masks that I've done, and remember that they're rough!





Helmet or Boonie hat? What do you like better?

[Warsaw]

Helmet. Boonie hats scream relaxed and laid back to me, so when you get all geared up like that and top it off with a boonie, it feels like you're skimping on something.

Boonies are also for scouts/snipers...and a G36 + assault rig a scout does not make.

I plan on getting a TM (Tokyo Marui for yall who don't know) VSR-10. Probably upgrading with Polar Star. Other upgrades here and there. Gonna be the scout of the team..
