[Nikpo]

That plus $85

[Joetehpsycho]

So, I'm saving for the G&P M16A1, and I'm expecting it shoots over 350 stock.

What kind of spring comes in it?

[Ninja Duck]

M120 I think.

[Joetehpsycho]

Do you think an M110 would shave enough velocity off for CQB use?

Or M100?

[Ninja Duck]

M110 could work but it might be safer to go with an M100 just in case the velocity is still a bit high with the M110.

[editline].[/editline]

My stock G&P M4 was shooting around 360 with .28's last time I chronoed at the field, if I was changing the spring to play CQB I'd get the M100.

[deathmog]

The G&P M16A1 is great, I love mine.
Shoots gooooooodd

I'm buying one of these, so what should I get uniform-wise if I want to not look like a stooge who has an AK with american gear?

[Dark Descent]

don't get that one, get the 040

[editline]4th September 2013[/editline]

Also russia camo is hella expensive, you won't look like a chump in american camo

Well the AK-74M came out in the early 90's and is still common in the modern day, so you have a ton of options, especially considering how "varied" the russian military is. Do you want to do an actual impression or just something thematic?

I'd prefer to do an actual impression, but my budget is almost nothing, so I have no idea where to start really. I'd prefer something along the lines of the early 2000s, but if older gear is cheaper, then I'll do that.

[Mai]

older gear is more $$$ but late 90s-modern kit can be decently priced if you know where to look

[Wulfram]

if you sans the PASGT vest, late 80's infantry is the cheapest you can do. M81 BDU's are dirty cheap, alice is dirty cheap, jungle boots are cheap, a replica pasgt helmet is cheap and m16a2's are common

[editline]4th September 2013[/editline]

dont do early 2000's, it can get pretty pricey. My OIF 1 kit has cost a lot of money so far and there's still things I need to buy. I should really tally it up at one point.

Well then your cheapest option might be a PMC. Standard look is a polo shirt, tan pants, and tan boots, as well as lightweight gear. An AK fits the look well too.

Kind of hard to do US infantry if he's planning on buying an AK :V

Whoops, missed the AK bit. But in that case, Notrabies is right and PMC would be the way to go

[11zeeky]

So my trishot shotgun finally bit the dust, looking for a new one of higher quality. Any suggestions?

[Herfjotur]

[QUOTE=Zeeky;42081331]So my trishot shotgun finally bit the dust, looking for a new one of higher quality. Any suggestions?[/QUOTE]

all trishots are same quality unless you get a tm870

What about buying flora BDUs? Reproductions on flora BDU is pretty cheap right?

[KILL001]

for an ak74m, I would say:

Expensive route: Russian
Classy route: Stalker
Budget route: Chechen rebels, xXspetsnazXx

real flora is cheapo at [URL="http://www.profarmy.ru/"]profarmy.ru[/URL]

[11zeeky]

[QUOTE=Herfjotur;42081337]all trishots are same quality unless you get a tm870[/QUOTE]
Not necessarily a trishot one unless these are the best you can get without spending way too damn much

[Mai]

these are the best you can get without spending way too damn much

[KILL001]

for a budget ruski kit, I would recommend VDV recon or by switching your kit around a bit, you could be xXspetsnazXx

(affordable items in bold lettering)

head: [B]kosynka[/B], [B]kepi[/B], or [B]boonie[/B]
uniform: [B]klmk suit[/B], [B]flora[/B], flecktarn-d, izlom, or [B]vsr[/B] works for VDV. for xXspetsnazXx you might want kamysh, rastr, les, or partizan
rig: [B]RD-54[/B]+[B]belt[/B] + lifchik (optional)
misc: [B]telnyashka[/B], [B]soviet 4-cell magazine pouch[/B], [B]canteen[/B] (optional), bigass backpack (optional)

you'd probably end up with something like this:

stalkre would be best off with an aks74 with poly furniture painted green

[Wulfram]

the problem with STALKER is that you gotta do it right. i dont know how to explain it, but some stalker loadouts look good, and some just look really slapdash and bad

If you have civilian clothes +hoodie+Shitty GP5+ AK you look bad...

I would consider one someday, the AK with OD furniture is so hot <3

I got my M16A2 back in a trade, now I'm selling it for good to fund my G&P MsisteenAjuan!!!! Super fucking Rad Vietvandy lodeotu is making progress!!1

these boyse should be relatively easy to pull off

[Wulfram]

the only issue I see with being bandits is its just track suit pants and an anorak. its still a STALKER loadout, but its not iconic enough. IDK, whenever I think stalker loadout I think more of the concept art and posters than actual in game models, so stuff like this

Thats just me though. I guess what goes as kosher for a STALKER loadout varies person to person

[editline]4th September 2013[/editline]

i mean like concept art vs actual in game models

How necessary is the endplate for the stock, apoctank

VFC's stock bundle comes with 28 & 29

[Mai]

looks like just a normal sling mount plate from here

[Nikpo]

naw it's got the two holes for the stock to slide through

[editline]4th September 2013[/editline]

[t]http://www.publicenemy.com.hk/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/36301_373544246053278_1367746137_n.jpg[/t]

i'm assuming not very necessary since when it's fully extended it doesn't even touch the endplate??

also why would it be that regular M4A1/M16A2 lowers wouldn't work
VFC says only 416/417 and M16A1 lowers work with it

[Mai]

oh lol i thought those were sling points

pretty sure they're just guide holes to prevent the bars flexing while in folded position, though the actual part where the bars slide and lock look plenty sturdy and long enough to hold them securely

[editline]4th September 2013[/editline]

or perhaps they prevent the whole assembly from twisting in folded although that's a moot point given that the only way that the stock could rotate is if the buffer toob screw was loose
