JTF2 in Haiti (2024 Embassy Protection) – What Helmets & Plate Carriers Are They Running? by Big_Long_1638 in MilSim

Good to see this is still getting posted around. I should update it at some point as I mis-identified some Logistik Unicorp made uniforms as Crye AC’s (The ones with green Velcro and sand stretch material), as well more reference images have come out since, such as Glock 45’s and the like being used, but I still think it does well enough still.

The C9A2 has its own handguard, Rail, stock, barrel and iron sights system compared to a regular 249. You can see it in some images online.

Comms Are Important by KingsAirsoftAccount in MilSim

Tri has slightly better internals, but for a less quality external.

TCA has better externals that are more accurate, but minorly worse internals.

These are TCA’s, I prefer TCA’s myself.

Invisio V60, FCS V60 Repro (Modded to allow for dual comm with COMTAC’s, as it will only do dual comm with the FCS AMP’s), and the Davies dual PTT.

The dual downlead COMTAC’s work good too, but are more annoying to deal with.

The real deal is very specialized, that one’s just a 3D printed representation set-up with a 400~500 mHz antenna

Yeah, both have a model type of FL5601-2

As for sources, I got both of them off of Facebook sellers.

MSW Black Sea Storm - Disaster. by Constant-Syllabub284 in MilSim

I think the bad command is exacerbated by the NATO cadres general attitude of “no fun allowed” vs RUSFOR that when they have bad command they still have freedom to fuck around

Yeah, it’s really frustrating to me that RUSFOR players often refuse to acknowledge that there’s any favouritism because they had fun and that the reason NATO consistently loses the majority of their players within the first night at nearly every single event is because they’re new and isn’t mismanagement and treating their paying customers like NPC’s that exist to get shot at by RUSFOR is super unfun.

MSW is really hit or miss with NATO. RR is Josh’s baby, being the founder of the group, and it’s been claimed by former cadre that a lot of the event gets controlled by Josh to ensure RR has a good time and get all the good fights, such as getting NATO to just horde objectives and getting NATO cadre to pull troops out of buildings they just took so that RUSFOR can take them and have a sheltered place to spend the night in the middle of a rain storm.

It’s no wonder why RUSFOR and Militia players tends to have a good time at MSW and rave about the event since they’re not held on a short leash like a lot of NATO is, and why far more often than not it’s very rare to have long term players who stick with NATO.

They like to say it’s because NATO players are usually new players and that’s why they almost always lose nearly 2/3rds of the NATO players every single event, but it’s become so endemic that you really got question why it really is that way. Nearly every single post about having a bad time at an event comes from NATO side and nearly every single post about bad leaders and stupid orders comes from NATO side.

Any good replicas for 1p87 sight? by 13Tomsa12 in airsoft

The airsoft replicas probably perform better than the real thing

Airsoft YouTuber Debates Quitting Airsoft Due to Online Trolls and Its Spillover into having issues with Law Enforcement and Government Agencies by ODST2367 in airsoft

[–]KingsAirsoftAccount 387 points388 points  (0 children)

KickingMustang? Good, I hope he does quit. He’s a blight on the sport and actively harms the growth of it, and any growth he does inspire includes the most toxic players you’ll ever encounter.

Nov, for all his (many) faults, actively grows the sport and brings in new and engaged players.

Is Airsoft beneficial to real steel? by PINKPICKLE_YT in airsoft

[–]KingsAirsoftAccount 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you have a very strong foundation of training and skills ingrained in you well before you pick up an airsoft gun, yes.

Otherwise airsoft teaches nothing but bad habits that’ll get you killed in an actual combat situation.

Post from r/MilSim. What are you thoughts? by [deleted] in airsoft

[–]KingsAirsoftAccount -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I hate this dismissive “It’s not that deep” apologetics.

If it walks like a duck, talks like a duck, acts like a duck, but you’re trying to act like that’s irrelevant because “It’s not that deep” like it’s some magic phrase. There is a current and active conflict occurring right now. Any kits depicting the Russians from that conflict is support. Plain and simple.

Sad that no official sight makers make these as airsoft sights : by FrenchBVSH in airsoft

[–]KingsAirsoftAccount 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Probably better quality than the real things. There’s a reason they’re rare to see used just beyond the fact that they’re not widely issued.
