Managed to get a pair of FJ jump trousers from ANT-Z military on ebay for £45 all in, get in. Missed the postman delivering my new Type 2 Splinter b jump smock from Spearhead ( I hate work some days). Just need to find a cheap Kar 98 bayonet or scabbard so I can get a rubber bayonet from feldworks. My FJ riflemans kit is coming together very nicely. :D
I'm on a roll, just managed to get 3 TM VSR mag's for 20 green sheets inc postage and paypal. :happyswing:

Today I looked for my Kar98 trigger guard that I lost. Didn't find it. :oops:
Had to lose it right when I have just almost finished converting it too.

Found it!

Did you stop looking for it? I've found looking for something else can be effective.

e.g. I couldn't find a repro MP40 muzzle nut I'd made several months ago. I stopped looking for it, and went looking for the mandrel I'd made to help knurl it, so I could make a new one. The original was in the box with the mandrel. :slap:

I find a good nights sleep works wonders when you are either looking for a thing or trying to work something out, I think your brain keeps working on the problem at some level and the next day all is right with the world and you have your answer :whistle:

In any case it is better than turning the house upside down or pulling your hair out :slap:

Did most of my packing for Il Gigio, as always there seems to be far too much stuff. Do I really need two tents?

Cleaned the brass and then soaked a load of 37 pattern webbing in a bucket and scrubbed all the old blanco off. Funny how I enjoy doing stuff like that.

Cheers

Good stuff. I actually need to find somewhere to perform the conversion- I live with my girlfriend in her mum's partner's flat and don't want to make a mess of the place as he's trying to sell it. Though the carpets are a bit shit... :giggle:

:giggle: I just took over the kitchen table like I usually do :rofl:

Packed my living room full of stuff for Il Giogo Pass, ready to transfer to my car in the morning.
And made some more slip on shoulder titles/div insignia for said game.

(well yesterday) I got my PpSh firing properly again, not spewing out bbs at random whenever and where ever it felt like it. Shoots nicely now with good range but I have somehow disabled semi-auto. Oh well who uses that on an SMG anyway? :giggle: I also disabled the blowback (on purpose) as I knew it would give up the ghost sometime and knowing my luck it would be in the middle of the forest at Schaulen.
