If you could change the joule limit, would you?

No thank you, I agree that we have a good balance in all the categories. Airsoft guns are like vehicles, if a car has 100bhp & you tune it to 200bhp, you don't therefore get double its top speed or acceleration, airsoft guns are no different, plus harnessing that extra power is another issue with hops etc. And extra power will likely shorten the lifespan of the internals, another negative 👎 -

No I wouldn't. I really don't know if it's sadism but i don't get the more power lot in airsoft!. I have seen people get their teeth shot out, i have had to dig BBs out my arm, still got a mark on my collar over a month after i got shot. All at UK limits most from long range shots. It's been proved time again you don't need power to get range and personally think airsoft would better with out snipers. -

I agree with marcusr. I think we currently have the best balance -

I think the current limits keep gameplay at a close range that encourages action and fun. I think having higher range is good up to a point (see paintball vs airsoft) but the 50-70m limit from a well tuned 1.14j airsoft gun is about right. Also, might be an unpopular opinion, but getting shot at close range by 1.14j hurts plenty for me. Much higher and I'd be less inclined to do CQB. -
Been thinking about airsoft joule limits in other countries and wondering who has the ‘optimal’ limit to balance effective range against injury. I would personally happily take a higher UK limit, although tempered by the fact I still want my kids to be able to take part and I wouldn’t want an increase in field limits to result in site insurance policies that start mandating additional armour beyond eye protection. Where is your happy middle ground? Or if you are not in the UK, what is your limit and are you happy with it?

Good price that.

They're gunna be rare for a while. I'm ngl, I thought about it.

I'm worried he'll drop and break all my mags... 😂 I sent him your posts, can't let him read it all or he'll know what he's getting. Thanks again, appreciate your time and effort mate. He's buzzing now.

Sadly, some poor barsteward will probably end up paying for this. Sooo unbelievably cheeky.

A PS …. Aim to practice reloads from either hand, which means you can keep the left pistol on the left and the right on the right Alternatively if better at reloading in one particular side then you can swap pistols over as they empty, that can mean you always know which will run out before the next and can reload from the optimum side

Brilliant reply, I'll read it him. Thanks. We have 5 mags for 2 pistols.

I don't see why they wouldn't let him akimbo. It's worse than just using one gun in game terms, though it is really fun.

Lovely quality UH-1 clone, was about £130 new from airsoftworld.net. Super rugged, I’ve used this at CQB several times without a protector. Retinal is wicked! Super crisp. Way better than I can photograph. Can send a video if needed tho. cosmetic wear to the externals but I think it looks better with it tbh. Tape on underside just to protect the rails on one of my rifles 😂 no battery included, needed for other stuff. Comes in original hardcase box price plus £5 postage.60.00 GBP

Lovely feeling heafty chonky Sig Sauer with a leak free mag. Owned it for 4 years, works great. Always keep co2 in it and it’s stayed leak free. Comes with the thread adapter. Nice DA/SA action Few marks to the finish but it functions well. The safety can sometimes not engage. Long DA first trigger pull is also a safety tho. Price plus £5 towards post.100.00 GBP

Limited options such as pistols change the dynamics, and as such are typically a limiter when up against others with higher capacity. However they are fun, and with the limitations when you get the kills then the payback is higher To be effective twin pistols need to have their reloading managed - not just having a holster to deposit one in order to release your hand for magazine changes, but avoiding them both being empty at once. It feels great to hold out both arms alternatively firing one shot per side, but then they both need reloading at once rendering you ineffective. Start the game favouring one side (eg right hand) until it’s probably half way ahead of the other. Then use them together When you’ve either counted it to empty (or more likely you notice that nothing is coming out) then it’s time to change magazine, but you still have the left one ready to shoot. Practice reloading so you don’t have to holster one - it helps to have big hands and long fingers If in a stable position you can drop a magazine, but it’s most likely that you want to stash it - pull it with your fingertips, drop into a dump pouch or down your shirt. Again with fingertips pull a fresh magazine and insert - your right pistol is now full and your left is half full If convenient move the dumped magazine to a pouch (and remember to manage what pouched magazines are full / empty) By keeping both pistols out when reloading you have the ability to shoot, a holstered pistol can’t shoot anyone (except yourself)

We've got an mp5 in the collection, the cyma blue edition. It's my favorite. His birthday not till December, but I buy early as Xmas expensive time already. Will definitely post update when he's tried it. I test fitted it, but fighting the urge to shoot it... He's got a TM gold match to go with it for BDay. I mentioned reloading, his answer was 2 holsters. He has an answer for everything. 😆

Selling my new-ish FAL OSW for the sole reason to fund a new airgun that I really wanted. Really don't want to part myself from this rifle but intrusive thoughts won 😭 Gun is accurate and functions out of the box with no hiccups whatsoever, almost zero wear on it aside from the obvious selector scratch that every FAL gets and a bit on the hinges of the folding stock. Comes with one gas tight mag. Just bear in mind this has no npas pre installed and it shoots a little hot out of the box currently (360 fps w/0.25g). I also had this for roughly only a month. Will be shipped via PF48 and payment via Paypal; all in for £490! If you have any questions or need more photos please dm me.490.00 GBP

In my experience duel welding pistols is dependant on site. I have done it and it’s huge fun for 2 or 3 mins then a pain when you have to reload the mags. Have a look at GBB SMG’s if he wants that kind of fun! Love using my WE Apache MP5 for up close and personal with a kick. Really interested to know how he gets on with the mini launcher, looked at them a couple of times but never purchased.

Up for sale is my lightly used TM G17 gen 5 MOS. it’s only seen half a days worth of use with very little wear, the gun itself barely has a mark on it, however the magazine has a few scratches due to it being in my dump pouch - shown in pictures. Excellent pistol but doesn’t get used and is pretty much new (apart from the scratches mag) Price includes postage/fees etc. Any questions drop me a DM225.00 GBP
