Larp gear

worthy heart
#

That is the biggest piece of shit build I have seen in a while

night rock
#

not to mention the weed 🤨

worthy heart
#

Fr

maiden kernel
#

I mean I've seen bronze coatings but that's ridiculous

worthy heart
#

It's not even real gold

#

It's just a cerakote

#

But like he's also got a hand stop and a folding vertical grip probably bought off Amazon

maiden kernel
#

Not to mention the scope not only blocks easy access to the charging handle. It blocks you from shortening the stock.

worthy heart
#

His crush washers installed backwards

#

Along with his muzzle not being timed properly

worthy heart
maiden kernel
worthy heart
#

He's got a front sight. He doesn't have a rear sight

#

The red dot is probably off of Amazon

maiden kernel
#

It doesn't even sit flush with the gun

worthy heart
#

Along with the lasers

#

And then to top it all off for the final nail in the coffin the unironic felony post of weed

#

Because if you have weed, you're not allowed to own guns

#

Nobody cares how much you grow

maiden kernel
#

Maybe he should stick to what he's good at.

worthy heart
#

Yeah

#

Even then nobody really cares how much you grow

#

That just means your house smells like skunk

maiden kernel
#

What's the point of painting your guns bright gold

#

That's mostly what's bugging me

timber fog
#

But this isn’t the place for that discussion

worthy heart
#

Yes

#

It doesn't take much to build a gun properly

naive maple
maiden kernel
#

I think he painted the bolt

#

It's way blacker than the rest of the gun

You know

#

I glanced at it

#

It didn't look too bad

#

But you kept pointing things out

#

and it got worse and worse

#

LOL

marsh flint
#

Red flag

worthy heart
#

Because whoever decided to build it doesn't know what they're doing

#

Aw

marsh flint

LOL

#

I think it's a coating

#

Like an anodised coating

fluid plover
maiden kernel
#

I've got a "gold gun"

fluid plover
#

I don't have a picture of it

maiden kernel
#

It's the stock anadozied coating the rifle came with

fluid plover
#

That's all that's bright red

maiden kernel
#

It's like a brass

#

I promise

#

What changed your mind

maiden kernel
#

If it's for high speed competition

#

Go for it

#

If it's for defense or recreational shooting

#

Why

#

Is that a USP mag

your point being? you realise there is tons of Ukrainians selling captured russian gear
Im just looking for a source

#

Dude it was a joke more than anything

#

And if they are selling captured Russian arms/equipment I want a cheap AK and Mosin

#

So I want that link as well

low jungle
#

no clue on that
no guns in my country anyway
Im just after armour, clothes, patches etc

late turret

I see

#

I already have an SKS

#

Albeit it’s a norinco made one

low jungle

wouldn't have ever guessed your an SKS ownereft_PrapKEK

late turret
#

What gave it away ? What could’ve possibly made you think that ?

low jungle
#

wrinkly brain on me fella

late turret
#

I fucking hate the stock on mine though

#

On a real note

#

The idea is cool, but at that point just buy an AK, it’s a polymer folding stock

#

Injection molded and really poorly at that

#

With the way it’s designed I’d have to cut the pistol grip off it just to get enough directional leverage to pop the chassis retention pin

tbh i have found out to 1200 if i have an sd of 20 or lower its fine

never shot past 1200

I try to keep it under 20 for gas guns, under 10 for bolt guns.

proud hazel
#

yea and i dont know if it would even matter much tell you wanted to hit like 2 mile

digital tiger
#

I’ve taken the 6.5 to 1600 without issue

#

223 to 1200

proud hazel
#

was that 223 a 77gn smk?

digital tiger
#

And the gas 556 to 1200

#

The gas gun yes

proud hazel
#

what fps were you hitting?

digital tiger
#

The bolt gun gets 75 eld

proud hazel
digital tiger
#

2750 with 77s

2880 with the eld

#

I went 9/10 at 1000 with the 77s though.

proud hazel
#

similar fps to my 77gn smk and i get lots of inconsistancy past like 850

digital tiger
#

On a 66%

#

Interesting. I didn’t have issues until 1200. Seemed like I was digging a hole at the base of the target and no matter the adjustment it kept going back there.

#

I was 3/10 at 1200

miles ahead of ops core amps

same goes for the airframe

people shit on it despite it being the best helmet for the money by far outside of a wendy

biggest complaints about this setup is the airframe is a weird shape and very large and for some reason the comtac 4s crush my skull with rac link arms

getting a wendy shipped to me to see if its any better rn

#

you should think about what youre more likely to get shot by

#

also people can just high cut their ach

narrow fulcrum
#

wendy and airframe i can find new for 850$

#

they are level 3

#

and thats the golden standard

#

also no, you cant just cut an ach that destroys the helmet and compromises all anti-ballistic capabilities unless you have very specific tooling and know what you are doing

#

also before you say it- no, that chinesium hhv fast clone you found on amazon for 500$ that says its level 4 and just as good is not a viable option either

#

as an american with no leo/mil purchasing options you have opscore, wendy, mtek and crye

#

i dont like opscores they dont fit me well

#

i tried to find galvion products -its impossible and they are 50-100% marked up compared to competition

#

same goes for NFM and their Hjelm

#

fantastic helmet, but €2,500-3k

#

so i chose crye

#

crye or die

snow scarab

they keep 95% of their ballistic capability

narrow fulcrum
#

if you can reapply the epoxy and re-autoclave the helmet sure

#

but i cannot afford a 500,000 dollar (minimum) machine for composite vacuum baking and i dont know how to run it

#

the comtacs arent the issue i think its the rac link arms, the amp headset has a totally different profile on how it bolts up and this conversions kit for peltors is not the move

#

also they are miles better than amps

#

seriously try a pair

#

i personally run them because theyre the only iem style hearing pro/amplification besides invisios which are norwegian contract only

#

the amps are kind of tinny and ive heard people complain about artifacting audio

#

the comtac 4 is like a studio driver iem almost, flat full body acoustic amplification and loud sounds dont mute the ambient audio as much as ive experienced with other earpro

snow scarab
#

you don’t own 4s

#

4s are the ones that use earbuds

#

comtacs in general do not have better sound than amps

idk i figure he meant headphones in conjunction with iems

#

idk ive given up on figuring out ear pro

#

i just use my shitty peltors

#

ever since they increased the amp price from 1k to 2k when my pain point for ear pro was 500 dollars to begin wirth

#

i just gave up

#

hes also not talking about amp arms but rac arms

#

I just like my sport tacs with foam plugs

I also have peltor combat arms but not sure about them

isnt the rf1 the 2,200$ retail if you can find it contract only unobtanium

#

opscore

#

blud the rf1 is 3200$ in stock right now

#

that's crazy

#

again i got my shit for 850

#

mtek and galvion and nfm offer arguably superior options for cheaper

#

both the caiman and hjelm are rated for multihit 7.62x39,half as light, half the price, arguably better mounting systems

#

the hjelm is honestly one of the best helmets out rn

#

ik the wendys and airframes are 3a

#

yeah i forgot to add 3a which is the golden standard for most helmets, i really don't know many people going with the rf1 or fths, they're really new and generally regarded as quite heavy

#

i also think 3k for that helmet is totally not worth it

#

unless you intend on being shot in the head, repeatedly at close range by a rifle

#

no caiman and hjelm

#

fairly certain both their marketing campaigns involve multihit 7.62x39 tests

#

idk bro 3.75lbs on top of nods, headset, mounts, lights is like a lot

#

yeah and we moved away from mich for a reason

#

also the idea behind something like a rf1 is not necessarily a good one, imo

#

you should be preparing for the moment you accidently silhouette yourself or get tagged while maneuvering for cover at distance where even a pasgt will stop a 54r

#

not anticipating to be domed and dropping another pound and a half on your head for that mistake

#

idk maybe im an old man yelling at the wind

#

if you are a spec ops door kicker with a massive logistics chain sure

#

as a civilian trying to survive in mountainous northern regions of america its a bad idea

#

interestingly, the hjelm has no data on its ballistic capability at all anywhere, i guess

#

nfm's website doesn't even say anything

#

ill assume its 3a

#

i swear i saw a video of it being tested

#

caiman is 3a too

#

yeah i guess the new opscore is pretty wild

#

i just cannot justify that pricetag

#

like why can i find airframes and wendys every day for 800

#

but everything else is like 1200-2200

#

even used people hardly change the price on an opscore even if its used

#

yeah the silhouette is huge

#

i think it lends itself to richochets better but idk, that's broscience

#

my large weighs around 2.5lb bare, mich is like 3.5

#

Wendy's helmets are cheaper, both bumps and ballistic, especially since they don't make the FAST MT anymore. It's replacement the FAST ST highcut is 309 dollars more than the Wendy SL.

#

Their bump is also more expensive when it's not on sale.

#

I would probably still buy an old MT off ebay though tbh

#

Wendy's normal ballistic is actually around 300 bucks cheaper.

#

I was looking at their more expensive model.

Oh nevermind he said he just shot himself

That makes sense kinda

stuck egret

He's a complete dumbass

I say that with certainty

maiden kernel
#

Well compared to the regular ballistic helmet it's a 600 dollar difference

stuck egret
#

The objective is to avoid being shot

maiden kernel
#

I mean I hate to be this guy but what's your proof

#

But you weren't shooting them or getting shot in them so how would you really know?

#

I know that comfort is also a factor

#

I mean almost, there's always how they take angles and how much they cave in Yada Yada.

#

But yeah they're identical in rating

#

Yeah it's boxy

maiden kernel
#

But you would honestly spend 600 dollars more for comfort?

snow scarab
#

@maiden kernel comfort is king when it comes to body armor

more protection isn’t better

in most scenarios

steel is for targets

UHMWPE is for light weight

ceramic is for the best overall protection, longevity, and weight
