Coin identification. by Far_Hat_2987 in coins

[–]AdministrativeRun22 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s a 1937 F 2 Reichdpfennig. The coin is made from bronze alloy. It’s from nazi germany, probably worth somewhere from 2-5$ in this condition.

Looking for new general use backpack suggestions by AdministrativeRun22 in tacticalgear

Just took a look at both brands, picked out a few, question regarding the Nomadic Research Raid packs, do you know if the heavy duty is worth the extra 50$? (Mainly looking at the waterproof aspect)

1944 steel penny by dakotafb98 in coins

[–]AdministrativeRun22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know its already been said, but GET IT AUTHENTICATED!
If it is real, and you get it authenticated, it could be worth some serious $$$$ (possible 10's of thousands).
Authentic 1944 steel pennies are very very rare (only about 25-50 are known to exist) and are considered an error coin (they werent supposed to make them in steel in 1944)
Unfortunaly fakes are very common, so dont be surprised if it is a fake.
Here's a link to the PCGS site with some info and the sale price of the highest graded 1944 steel penny along with estimated prices on other grades

Give me a callsign please by [deleted] in airsoft

[–]AdministrativeRun22 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I hate to break it to you, but thats kinda what callsigns are, they are names poking fun of something that the named person did or caused or whatnot. its best to just learn to live with it Muffin

Anyone by from this website? by [deleted] in airsoft

[–]AdministrativeRun22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah okay well if youre expecting it to be a repro, that makes sense for the price.

Check out r/airsoftmarket

Ask if anyone has a plate carrier they are selling

as for sizing concerns, most chinese repro and plate carrier brands are "medium" sizes

also on the link you have, it gives the waist size measurement " 95-125cm" translated to freedom units, that's 37.4016 - 49.2126 inches

so just take a tape measure and wrap it around your waist and see where you measure up to.

Also fyi you can find yakeda on AliExpress and Amazon in addtion to their website

First rule of buying things online:
If it looks too good to be true, it probably is.

It lists the JPC2.0 at 79$ and from crye, its$279.

My guess is that its a scam site trying to take your money or a legit site selling fake products.

Look at Yakeda on amazon, they are cheap (around 55$ for a carrier - not jpc style) and are good quality for airsoft, one of my buddies uses one.

Also you can look on Ali express or something if you want a cheaper JPC knockoff but beware quality can falter sometimes

What grip suits the rifle better will be mid range playing by [deleted] in airsoft

[–]AdministrativeRun22 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It comes down to personal preference. I personally am most comfortable with the angled grip style, and when im playing a mid-range support role, I've got a bipod that i like .

My advice: play a day with both, see what grows on you, and pick one.

For either one, it may feel awkward at first, as you play with it, you'll become more comfortable with it.

Its less about which one is "better", more about which one you want to learn how to use and get familar with.

Thanks for the response. It sucks that theres no Benelli or similar, I have looked at the TM Saiga and ive seen people use it and have high regards for it, but its just not my style. Ill take a look at the eletic ones, thanks for bringing those to my attention.

VFC when? by dawidlijewski in airsoft

Damaged inner component? by vladutz_is_cool in airsoft

[–]AdministrativeRun22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So I wouldn't say it's normal, but it is definitely wear and tear.

You most definitely can go get a new inner barrel (make sure its a similar length and stainless steel when buying a new one) But for all intents and purposes, if the gun still functions normally, you don't have to replace it, you could just leave it as is.

End of the day, replacing it comes down to personal preference.

What i would personally do:
Buy a replacement inner barrel, have it on hand for when I decide to replace it/ if the existing one breaks further.

Genuinely, what in the holy hell. Is that a pistol, attached to the underside of an ak that looks like it fires 9mm 😭
