The weather was nice enough to take some decent pics today, so here are some new ones...
I also got around to painting the steel braided hose black today, and I think it looks alot better.
Enjoy!  B)

 

On top of my new vest...showin' off the OPSGEAR pride...

View of magwell/mag

On top of my new card table...This pic seemed a little "Scarface-ish"  to me for some reason

Oustide

Please give me any constructive critisism you may have!  I really don't wanna hear any "the mag is pointless" or "looks heavy" posts though, because it would be worse for me to go through the time and money to have a marker such as this and then have the stock foregrip in place of a mag, and the weight doesn't bother me one bit.

 

Thanks for looking!

Basically the same thing as a very expensive anno job or a flame style drop....it may add weight (in in the drop's case) and be quite useless in some cases, but it does look cool...I also keep my squeegee in there so it's not 100% useless

oh. well the squeegee part adds to the cool factor. i think mags are cool, but i never understood pull mags.

when it comes to drops, they balance the tank with the gun, if it already isnt balanced. its a personal preference. ya got me on the anno

you should have gotten air through stock, so you can have the remote line at the butt end of the stock and have more movement...

It's called a magpul and is used for the quick removal of clips...

Unless it was mine, you've never seen it before.  The "m4" settup has been done many, many times, but never with this precise settup as many of the defining aspects of this marker are custom.  it may look the same to the untrained eye, but is more accurate than probably 95% of the m4 milsim markers out there...

I like it. Thats cool that the mag holds your squeegeieieie, I can see where that helps but the mag does serve a purpose as well, It looks good.

But anyway.. 7.9/10 :)

it looks good, but the sights look kind of odd....seems like you should have either the iron sights or the scope, not both....but over all 8/10
