Unfortunately only four people showed, so there was no winner. We just sat around playing guitar, engaging in manly conversation, and of course, sticking all of our bladed in those poor trees. We all had a GREAT time, but no STALKER. We'll try again some time, but probably not until this fall.

And getting shot with the Tanaka.

Yeah, that too. Left cheek both times....

continuing my pictures (only 3 can be loaded per post?)

[MILSIM]

last one, again sorry for multiple posts...

If you use something like photobucket you don't have to worry about attachment limits. That SVD scope looks really good on there, btw.

[MILSIM]

bought it from www.centerfiresystems.com. they're based in versailles, KY, so it was here in 2 days. It was listed as a PSO-1 on their website, and priced as such, so in my haste to order it I didn't notice the lack of battery compartment. It came in an authentic vinyl and leather waterproof scope cover (designed to go over the scope and buckle under the rifle's receiver). the mounting clamp was in very poor condition. i had to saturate it in CLP and attack it with a chamber brush to break out some of the rust and corrosion that had frozen the clamp. The rails are slightly too fat on the A&K reciever for the LPS, which is designed for the rails of the PSL. I fixed that with a bit of sandpaper and more CLP. Its on there VERY snugly and I'm pretty sure it's gonna be a challenge to remove.

I wrapped the cheek rest with 550 cord and secured the ends between the vinyl pad and the wooden sleeve at its base with gorilla glue. I have a wooden furniture kit on my other SVD which is being shipped down soon, so I'll have this one decked out in wood with an eastern bloc style canvas and leather sling....its gonna be more of a Frankenov than a Dragunov when I'm done with it.

It's good to see one of you "Milsim Operator operating in milsim operations" types carrying something other than an M4.

Good load out.

[MILSIM]

oh its the only "primary" i have around down here. Just you wait. The KJW M4A1 CQBR is in the mail, my KJW M4A1 is being shipped down soon.

F*ck "operator". Im not 14. I'm a proud soldier. that cap is gonna be replaced with a MC covered ACH, IR band, rabbit ears, baseplate and Rhino mount next paycheck.

Out of curiosity, why do you put your AR mags on your chest as opposed to the lower half of the CIRAS, and either shingle the pistol mags on top of them, or mount the pistol mags on your chest?

[MILSIM]

when you are wearing the SAPI plates in a plate carrier, putting the mag pouches around your abdomen makes it impossible to get into a proper prone firing position. Also, if doing a high crawl, mags mounted low will bite into the dirt and 'scoop' dirt, sand or mud into the mags and pouches, whereas mounting them higher keeps them out of the ground. Its also easier to reload when prone as you don't have to roll over to get at your mags, which can get you shot fast. High mags can also allow you to buckle a waist strap to an assault pack or rucksack. I'm also a driver in my unit, so when I set up my kit, whether its garrison, deployment or airsoft, keeping your gear higher keeps your lower body within a good range of movement and comfort when seated or entering, exiting a vehicle. Try it, I guarantee you'll never go back to a "beer gut" of mags again.

[MILSIM]

my only gripe is the large canadian-pattern magazines that KJW manufactures for its GBB M4s...Im seriously doubting whether or not they will even insert properly into my kangaroo pouches...
