      Getting real fucking demoralised with AEGs and (external) parts and shit. Nothing fits together, it's all garbage, they always break. "TM standard" bollocks. Really miserable day. Just tempted to chuck it all in the bin and eat the loss.

      Fitted a 4uad hop rubber and Unicorn 210mm barrel to my MWS. Once the hop was dialled in and ~100 BBs put through it to set the NPAS (open a little more!) and I have it running 0.95 - 0.98j on 0.28g and 0.98 - 1.01j on 0.32g
       
      Slightly shorter barrel reduces joule creep, even more than the stock 250mm TM or the 250mm Crazy Jet.
      Accuracy from some bench rest shots at 10m seems good, will do a proper vice test tomorrow. Given that it is still 28deg in the shed I might rechrono once it isn’t as hot as satans armpit!

    • Not an airsoft day more of a 2 day CQB Course hosted by JBG    Definitely worth looking into, really good course, learnt alot, great atmosphere and good people    Also quality photos 
    • Played Apocalypse Sunday Skirmish. Had a really good time.    New site for me, free game courtesy of the Modern Warrior airsoft shop which they offer if you spend £150, nice.    Site was very nice and well maintained, not overgrown like a lot of woodland sites, lots of structures/barricades to clear or hide out in.  Lots of open 'no mans land' spaces to negotiate in the mix. It was busy but its a big site so there was space to move without getting shot at and with the layout there were good opportunities to flank the enemy positions or try to come in from another direction.     Only real challenge is the walk up the steep hill from the car park, had to do this twice to get all my kit on site.  I will pack better next time.   Was a misty cold start, then a bit of rain before it turned into a sweat box 2/3 seasons in one game day, double nice!!   Games were great fun, nice mix of attack and defend for all sides in every game compared to the usual playing each scenario twice.    1st game was rescue the injured pilot, we attacked the other team to rescue the pilot then had to take him/her back to a location and defend until extraction.  Lots of different play going on with sniping/DMR keeping us in cover for a couple of players with pistols / AEG's to sneak or run at us.  We only just held out with the other team making a big push in the last 5 minutes.    2nd game was pure domination, 3 locations, hold 2 out of 3 at the end to win. We held 1 until the last 2/3 mins when a group of about 10 of us at respawn decided to have a suicidal rush at one of the locations. We took it right before the end of the game and were lucky the game ended when it did as the reds were using the same tactic in the last few seconds to take it back.    3rd game was capture the flag. We were split into 3 teams and had to capture the flag and return it to our base while the other 2 teams tried to do the same.  Was a great game and not one I've played before.  We had a fast paced teenager who ran in, grabbed the flag and took it back to our base very quickly while the rest of us provided covering fire. It was then a game of keeping the flag for 45 mins, as expected very intense towards the end.  I ran out of BB's and the battery was running low in the MP5 so had to drop to my trusty Sig in the last couple of minutes, should use semi more, it's not a LMG!!   Gun choice was the Cyma Platinum MP5 and WE Sig 226, great combo and they shot really well.  Also took my newly acquired (used) TM AK47 EBB for bad guy duties, it chrono'd well but died after a couple of mags, just stopped working and doesn't make the Gate boot up noise so suspect something electronic, maybe a fuse if it has one, has fried and needs investigation.    Players were 99% friendly, a couple of lads got a bit salty with the Marshalls at one point.  Hit taking was very good and incoming fire stopped as soon as you put your hand up which is a nice surprise from the last couple of sites I've played where overkill is the name of the game.    On site shop was good, well stocked and very busy.  Didn't have anything from the burger van but given most of the players did I can only consider it as good.    Will be going again!!
    • Drop me with a DM to talk about what you want 😊   if we can find a commercially licensed part (quite common now) then it shouldn’t be too hard to do.   can also do a range of materials from aesthetic plastics to engineering grade materials.   See below - an example of the quality of some of the engineering filaments 😊
