The size is nice. It’s perfect for indoors. It’s balanced which makes it possible to one hand the gun when you need to. I will probably run it as a backup for a high powered field gun like a sniper rifle or DMR. My plan is to make a Kydex holster/platform to mount the gun to a battle belt. Also waiting for Classic Army to release the pistol length magazines for the X9. It will make it easier to carry as a sidearm.

So far I do like the magazines, reloads just feel different. Maybe it’s just that it’s new and fresh. It feels better than the reloads on my Systema MP5.  Mags are long, but in Condor SMG pouches with the flaps removed they run pretty well, fit snug, but remove smoothly. 

I haven’t messed with the ARP9 much, but my buddy hates the battery compartment in his and was super jealous of the battery compartment on the X9 when I was running it stock.

My favorite thing about the Nemesis platform in general is how versatile it is. The springs are east to swap without a full breakdown, similar to Ares. Trigger can be programmed on the fly without any tools or programming devices. I have three builds I run, with additional upper receivers for whatever mood I happen to be in.

I’m loving the CA X9 platform. Check out my custom build!
 


CA X9 PDW
Krytac SDP hand-guard
Ares M45X-S Type B Blade Stock
Modify Hybrid 6.03 TBB 141mm
Maple Leaf Bucking
SMG/Pistol Sights

Solid 350 FPS for CQB.
I’m planning on a Kydex holster for my battle belt to run it as a backup for outdoor games. A good compliment to a bolt action or DMR.

What do you think? Have you jumped on the PCC bandwagon? Post your builds!

I think that there is a growing appeal for LARP gaming of all types. Dagohir and it’s variants have never been more popular, I’d dare say there are almost as many contact LARPers these days as Airsofters.

As far as interesting heirloom style pieces there’s that Umarex Legends Cowboy Repeater... CO2, shell ejecting fun.

That’s probably true. It’s niche for sure, but so is WW2. Yet, there seems to be an interest there. I think more players would be likely to qualify for a western style theme without any sort of significant investment in gear. Any one of us can grab a flannel shirt, their favorite jeans and be more than halfway there. Most guys have a bolt action replica, decent springer, or can spare $60 for a basic Co2 revolver. Guys who want to really build a period loadout can definitely do so.

Funny thing is, as I write this it, it takes me back to the old school backyard Airsoft games we used to have. Maybe that’s the charm of it?

While it’s not really a period piece the EF H8R is a super affordable and reliable piece just about anyone could pick up for a game like this. It would certainly be serviceable for a scenario like this.

I can’t be the only one thoroughly enjoying Red Dead Redemption 2.

It’s definitely made me think about picking up a EF Smoke Wagon, a WG Schofield, or an old school lever action rifle. I’ve been thinking that in reality it wouldn’t be super difficult to build a period loadout, as the style could be easily emulated using modern clothing, boots, hats, etc.

The next question would be, is there any interest in running events or LARP in this time period, say 1860 to 1900? I recall seeing an event in the past that was themed around Rum Runners in a prohibition era setting. I was curious to find out what the interest was in that event.

Ideas I had:

Partly Story Driven:
Rival gangs fighting over territory control, a whisky still, and bad blood. On field resources would be available, additional ammo, dynamite (thunder-b), healing items, and other commodities.

Teams/gangs/law enforcement are differentiated by colored scarves or bandanas (or badges)

Weapons Allowed:
-Revolvers, all types (any period)
-Shotguns (low cap mags only)
-Bolt action replicas, (period preferred, but all types allowed)MEDs would be very important here. Low power bolt action replicas may be viable options.
-Lever action
-Semi auto pistols, period only(ie Mauser, Luger, etc.)

Starting ammo is limited for each gang but additional can be gathered on field as resources and rewards for completing objectives.

I feel like this could be a blast. Nerdy? Of course! Airsoft already is, but something different than Tan vs Green.
