i ordered a rollup keyboard, hdmi cable, and optical audio cable yesterday. then today i decided i couldn't play PS3 in 480i over composite anymore while i waited for them to arrive, so i went down to the store and bought another HDMI cable. and burnout paradise.

 

Bioshock PS3
1 x Ticket for ACDC Tour (Manchester - April 2009!)

 

The Incredible Hulk DVD. Really enjoyed it, much better than the other Hulk film (and a tie-in with the Iron Man

/Avengers setup

ending that I wasn't expecting). I'm actually looking forward to some of the Marvel animated films/series that were trailered in the begining of the disk.

 

New scope for my M82 A1, and a new Systema metal hop-up system to replace the Hurricane one that was shipped with it. Oh, and an 80 round mag for it.


Pictures, because it's just so damn sexy. Spent a few hours last night rebuilding the internals, too. Fires like a dream now, just gotta get the automatic setting disabled properly..

Edit: Just occured to me, this is an airsoft weapon (Just incase people don't recognise that from the internals and the names Hurricane and Systema) >.>

 

OMFG

 

It seems to vary depending on which institution you're at - we get a massive discount at Manchester uni, but my girlfriend gets basically nothing at Liverpool Uni.

 

Nice liratheal.
What kind of FPS is that thing kicking out now then? Also how much does it weight in at?

Not had a chance to chrono it yet, but it should be around 400 if all goes well. All the sites I play limit semi autos, sniper or not, to 400 fps Weight wise, probably around the 7.5-8kg, no scales to confirm that though >.>

 

Ouch that's pretty heavy, but then the sniper is a support weapon so you are hardly running around like a headless chicken anyway

 

It's not light, no, but the rest of my gear is pretty light. Modded SA assault vest, two large belt bsed pouches and two thigh holsters. All told it's still a lot less than 33% of my total body weight

Fortunately, the bipod takes a huge amount of the weight when lying down, and it's QD so it's not a huge encumberance when running. I'm still deciding on what to use sling wise at the moment, though :B

 

Pre-ordered Iron Man & Dark Knight on Blu-ray. £15 each.

Purchased:
Jeff Dunham - Spark of Insanity
Jeff Dunham - Talking to Myself.

I'll get the Christmas Special ASAP.

 

Para cord?
You could use something the the M249 straps with the padding to spread the weight a bit but it may look silly. Talking of which I would love an M249 but I'm playing urban pretty much exclusively these days and they don't allow them as its in some old underground bunkers under the local fort.

 

Ticket to see Mogwai DJ set + Nadja

 

pro evo
saints row 2

 

Wow. I'm not really a fan of Mogwai but I reckon a DJ set could be pretty interesting... But Nadja is live I assume? That I have to see.

 

I actually have a Guarder 3-point sling intended for use with 249's, it doesn't have the same weight spreader, but it's a lot wider than 'normal' three pointers.

I'm tempted by a Biathlon sling, or something, to make it more like a backpack, but it would probably be a might unweildy

Mm, I'd love an Inokatsu M60VNCG, but I think my 'retardedly expensive airsoft gun' has already been bought for this year >.>

Fortunately, all my sites are a lot more open plan, though, I'd like to play a decent urban site again (I've not been to one for at least three years now), where do you play? I'm typically at Close-Action and Fire-Supports site(s).

 

Its good to finaly see pics of you M82

How much does it weight as i have been informed that they weight the best part of a tonne and are not very mobile when airsofting.

 

Hell yeah, I can't believe it's in my home town, either (Barrow). Should be interesting.

 

Mine feels to be around 7.5-8kg (The kit alone is 6.5kg) when fully loaded, and with an 8.4v 3300mAh battery in it. As for mobility, it's not too bad for me, but I'm pretty tall and generally big, so this doesn't feel that big to me (Looks hilarious when a friend uses it, it's nearly as long as he is tall ). I've yet to take it to a game, but I'm hoping to do that in the next week or two.

 

I'm currently playing Urban at UCAP.
They are really strict on the FPS limits but its an interesting environment if a bit too dark and there are some really nice people there.
