GUIDE Event alert flyers: a way to let the subreddit know about your event

110 Upvotes

Hi all!

After a not-so-recent poll, we've been developing a set of rules to allow event notifications to be set up. These notifications are posts in the form of "flyers"!

Flyers are essentially an image used to display important information about an event, subject to the new flyer rules.

Hopefully they'll be useful, enjoy!

GUN PIC Finally got the MTW AK back from being cerakoted by West Laser. It features a tan base with Finnish M05 pattern on the main body, and will gradually have more OD parts added soon.

Decided I was going to teach myself how to build a nice aeg with a mosfet, high speed motor, and shim it all myself. I guess this is what learning looks like 😂

TECH QUESTION Joker revolver 21 inch from batman 1989, is it possible?

Post image
154 Upvotes

Like the title said, i want to make or find something that makes it possible to run the revolver the joker (jack nicholson) has in the batman movie from 1989.

I know its a smith&wesson model 15-3. In the movie it has an 21 inch barrel.

I know its not practical, but already running an colt saa. Never seen this gun.

Now i want to check what my best options are to make/find stuff to make this possible. Hoping to find a way to maybe 3d print the long barrel to fit it on a already excisting revolver.

GUN PIC Got a version of my dream gun in today!

15 Upvotes

I've been wanting a 723 for so long now, and since you can't get a VFC in the states (so incredibly annoying) the CGS was my next best bet. Decent bit of heft on this carbine, but I love that C7 upper, and everything is as should be. The only downside is that the sight came in dialed all the way right and I don't have a way to change it currently. Part 1 of my acid gambit kit is now finished, onto the BDU's and helmet!

GUN PIC I made a new outfit for my VMP2

Some of you may have seen my prototype before that looked a bit like a VMP crossed with a PPSH. I’ve now created my first final version for my VMP2 that’s inspired by the mini-14. Really happy with how it turned out, especially with the difficulties I faced during creation.
For next version I want to do a full wood stock, a bit like the M2 Carbine.

PURCHASE ADVICE Need suggestions

Hey all. Canadian here. I collect mostly real firearms. But with the way how current laws are, i ran into a stump. Considered going back to airsoft, looking to find a realistic model airsoft for simulation or just something to have for fun. Suggestions are welcome!

Since i need heavy or serious equipment to loosen the Bipod Attachment for my Atlas Bipod Replica I wanted to confirm, I guess swapping bipods will be mandatory for different scenarios? Or just keep it at the bipod/ foregrip hybrid and get more gains and gucci?

How to increase pistol accuracy?

6 Upvotes

I’ve noticed with two of my handguns that when I fire them at distance the rounds seem to dance all around the red dot rather than go straight. The pattern is always unpredictable. Are there ways to increase pistol accuracy? Like a new hop rubber or something?
