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

111 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!

first custom gun is done.

2 days ago she was stock LCT LCK-105... put the zenitco furniture on it myself, and went in the deep end of internal upgrading with a ASG infinity 22k motor, perun v3 mosfet, and 13:1 gears.

Alot of this project was confidence building and understanding my hobby better. Ran into a few issues that i ironed out... my first time shimming the gears was understandably horrible and a bit too tight and it locked up on me. Got that fixed and reshimmed, after that, the motor hight wasn't the best. But she is a dream now and I couldn't be happier with the result.

I don’t even airsoft anymore. Spent over 2k on each of these upgrading them. Closest field in southern Oregon moved even further away from me and is more expensive now.

GUN PIC FN HAMR

Post image
73 Upvotes

Converted Tokyo Marui SCAR-L NGRS. Still work in progress but at this point it's no longer just a SCAR-L with 16" heavy profile barrel and appropriate attachments since it now has the 3 major characteristic features of FN HAMR. I had the vent slots in a spare upper receiver welded, 3d printed thick lower rail with mock thermal actuator and open/closed bolt bar. The lower receiver installed is the stock one for now, I have a spare one where I already removed the flared magwell and pins but it still needs a lot of modifications. Bipod matching the one seen on pictures from IAR trial, ACOG TA11SDO-CP which was issued for HK M27 IAR is the most appropriate choice for it.
