^^ Was he really? Haha

[Esteban]

Yeah right.

It is a nice looking gun. I don't think I've ever seen someone actually CHOP the carry handle.

[SteevoLS]

I have a pile of carry handles built up from over the years, so there really isn't much point in spending $15-20 on a "chopped carry handle sight" when simply chopping the carry handle will do.

[Esteban]

Any upgrades planned? Does the blowback on it still work?

[SteevoLS]

It's an ollllllld pre-blowback Combat Machine. As far as upgrades go, just going to rewire it (MOSFET of course) and put in a quieter motor.

Unrelated, but LOL u sigged Caleb's "bleed on the inside" hahaha

Did you actually pay for it, or is it being held by someone else?

[SteevoLS]

Yes, I paid for it and I'm keeping it.

Just got Clutch's TM Sig 552, 2 43 rnd lowcap TM mags with the dummy rounds and 2 cybergun 220 round hicaps. I want midcaps, but I have a tough choice. Should I stick with the small 43 rnd lowcaps(I like the small size) and buy BDS tactical 7.62, .308 mag pouches and get like 12 43rnd lowcaps, or go with the MAG 100 rnd midcaps that are a bit longer than normal mag size, and should fit easy into a triple AR mag pouch? Anyways, here is the list of what I have done: Matrix PEQ-15 box for new lipos coming in soon, short foregrip, possible suppressor, and Leapers red/green dot sight. Only done External mods so far.





What looks better: Suppressor or no Suppressor? (btw, the suppressor is functional, I stuffed it with cotton and mad an inner barrel going through it, now it is a thump sound rather than a crack)
As for the PEQ, I'm going to have to wire the connector from the gun through those small holes on the hand guard, they will show, but I'm thinking some electrical tape should make them rather discreet.
Future Internal mods to be made, going to get a Guarder SP120? I think kit for like 110 later on. As for now, the gun shoots like a Cadillac, TM hop up ftw.

I don't think that suppressor looks too good on there, but maybe a different one would.

I think so too. ^^


Maybe a more longer one.

[Dominum]

Honestly this should be left stock as an excellent CQBR, that's where it shines. Did you add baffles to the "inner barrel" in the suppressor? If not, then most of the sound waves would still be resounding off of it instead of dissipating in the cotton, so it will largely override the benefits. I always err on the side of a suppressor.

[SteevoLS]

The short magazines may be nice, but walking around with 12 mags is a bit of a drag.

[blackout]

I was leaning on the side of the MAG midcaps, as it is also a lot cheaper, BDS gear isnt cheap. But the suppressor has an inner barrel thing and I drilled holes all over it, somewhat in a pattern, so the sounds goes through the holes and hits the cotton. It is a very distinct sound difference with it on.
EDIT to Dom: I'm leaving it stock for a while, but I am still going to use it in field, like this weekend at the Airfarm.
