so what you're saying is that if someone draws an anime poster of a character holding a particular type of gun... you'll be more inclined to want to buy it? DO NOT EVER GO TO JAPAN, YOU WILL SPEND ALL THE MONEY YOU HAVE EVER HAD AND EVER WILL HAVE ON RUBBISH.

i started to wear kneepads after learning the pain of kneeling on bbs on concrete floors.

I always use knee pads, yes you don't need them but you don't need mag pouches, pockets would do the job. It's nice to have the comfort of them.

Another area where it isn't consistent is air guns. You can get a 6ft/lb (8j I think) pistol that fires either pellets or steel BB's and get them in real steel look and feel without any UKARA, the only provision being a face to face sale. Admittedly its not an assault rifle but if you get a considerably less dangerous airsoft pistol (1j and plastic BBs) its got to be two toned. That makes no logical sense at all. But as a responsible adult and airsofter I jump through the governments hoops when it comes to firing and owning firearms. I bring no attention to myself, I don't share the hobby with my family or most of my friends and I just keep it under wraps. Our country has a cultural aversion to guns because some horrible people have done some horrific things with them. For now at least I am happy that I can still get a RIF airsoft gun and go run around and play solder and shoot at least some real steel guns in a rifle club.

Could be a bit unwieldy with the wheels bolted on but yeah.

And now for something completely different.

...this http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0050RGSRW/ref=s9_simh_gw_p200_d0_i4?pf_rd_m=A3P5ROKL5A1OLE&pf_rd_s=center-2&pf_rd_r=07B7SKVBE2X8N3ENZYV2&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=455344027&pf_rd_i=468294 is freely available through Amazon. What the actual fudge is that all about?

I think he most probably knew what you were on about mate.

Im late to the party, but whatever... I'm still working with the GP-5 bag by my sholder, It's used to keep my lower mesh mask in while i dont need it. if anyone's wondering, the camo i'm wearing is the Russian 'Ripple' camo (aka Ryab). i got it from here (Hyper link attached) (before i forget, i need to get some kneepads)

Because they just shouldn't "be". They're like Justin Beiber, or Mylie Cyrus, or Jennifer Lawrence whenever she's not in my bed.

It is retarded isnt it. A normal person wouldnt see the difference between that, an airsoft gun or a real steel.

I'm a judo man meself really helps spacial awareness and just being efficient without being conservative...I would recommend martial arts *cough judo* to anyone regardless of whether it helps airsoft.

Dude, everyone knows that all the worlds elite paint their guns yellow now.

Oh god, it's hideous. I'm a little bit saddened that you can buy rail ladders in hot pink!

My local sight has a remote control car with ~9 remote dets & smokes on it and front and back cameras- really is awesome, I've not seen anything like it elsewhere.

Last few pmags have arrived, no need to worry about them being out of production anymore

Usually the weak springs that airsoft manufacturers put behind their delta rings which are to fault there. Not sure how to go about getting some decent ones in the UK apart from buying some RS delta ring assemblies from Midway (which is what I ended up doing). You'd also need a barrel nut spanner and some good needle nose pliers to change the thing. If it's movement back and forth try packing out the front edge with some tape, if you keep it to the very front edge it'll be hidden under the front handguard retainer cap. Not exactly a professional gunsmithing technique but the problem is brought about by iffy/variable airsoft manufacturing specs and tolerances so bodge solutions are required on occasion.

This MOLLE rig from Bulle is available in Olive as well as tan and I would strongly reccommend it to any beginner to airsofting. In comparison to other vests on the market, the Recon Chest Harness is an excellent choice. Of course made from Cordura, I'm presuming 1000D, you can rest assured this will not break on you, and isn't a cheap China-soft "knock-off". As the title suggests, it's primarily intended for a lightweight reconaissance loadout, as with the idea behind MOLLE you can completely customise your vest to personal preference. Therefore, you can do away with unwanted pouches and only attach the ones you need, making the platform very adaptable. On this particular product, not only is there plenty of webbing all around the rig, but two huge inner pockets. In addition, the flap in which you would usually mount an admin pouch can be tucked into the vest when not in use, and secured by two press studs. Needless to say, consider purchasing some pouches along with your tactical vest / chest rig / harness for your magazines and additional equipment such as grenades or ammunition. I'd reccommend airsoft-club for pouches, as although everything is Chinese-made, it's generally pretty good and a good price. (Remember you've got to pay quite a lot for shipping) Delivery times are long however, some packages will take over two weeks to be delivered, so bear that in mind. Alternatively, you could get a triple STANAG or MP5 magazine pouch (or other obviously) from Flecktarn.co.uk (where I purchased my harness) It's more expensive but their delivery is absolutely great and overall in general you'll receive superb service. I also bought a Bulle Olive Admin Pouch, which I might also do a review of. I'm sorry if this review wasn't great as I've haven't done a lot of writing other reviews or anything recently but as aforementioned I'd like to recommend to anybody, especially beginner airsofters looking for a great value rig for their loadout.

If a gun was truly high end it would come with heavy gauge wiring,Deans & some sort of basic mosfet to allow you to use non shit discharge lipos. Gearbox wise as long as AOE is corrected than that's even better. Lonex already do AOE correction OOTB and G&P come with deans. Higher tier lonex also comes with solver plated ultra low resistance wiring throughout and some JGs I;ve seen recently came with very thick wiring. So manufacturers are getting close to becoming proper high end but It's just not really there. It;s funny how often lower end guns tend to come with things that higher end guns don;t have. We often pay more for the brand name and good externals. Sadly airsoft manufacturing does not have any set standard,hell,most companies have trouble keeping tolerances proper between batches so that shows the sad little state our industry is in. Hence,lots of DIY stuff about to get the gun coming with stuff it should have in the first place.

Just to clear something up, MealZ, that's a GP-7 bag - the GP-5 bag is long and thin. I use a GP-5 bag as a dump pouch and a GP-7 one to carry my ghillie veil. External kneepads are great for kneeling in wet mud etc., much better than built in which cannot but wick up water into the cloth. Not necessary, but wet kecks all day are a bummer if you can't change.

Fair point! I swapped out the Prometheus barrel for the crappy Element 6.04 and changed the cylinder head and nozzle, re shimmed and re built the gearbox and canged the black shark rubber for the clear and BOOM!

565 Photos some video's on the fb group Oops, i should add my impressions: there are a number of issues with it being a new site / working out which games work etc., adding cover outside, blanking sight lines; but it has the potential to be an amazing place and the team, Justin in particular, are well open to suggestions to make the place better and willing to change things immediately when it appears to be needed; i was far from on form and the reds with whom i was teamed mainly got slaughtered, but i still enjoyed the day; it's well run for the most part

Will do it's going to take a few weeks for them to be made according to the website though and then probably another week at the opticians.

Vz61 Skorpion: the sidearm of champions (when the fucking drum mag doesn't jam because it's too full off BB's to stop it rattling)! Links?

^^That's a good idea, James. I could recycle some dirty old DPM cordura in strips like a Roman leather armour skirt, but overlapping.

I think I just vomited.

Who told you two hours? 500mA milliamp / hour, 3000mAh so ~ 9 hours for a full charge.

Forgot her name. Haruhi Suzumiya with a good old kalash. Jesus that was a good anime, I may just go and watch it again. Good old 2006. On the subject of anime I have found an anime about airsofting, there is only 1 anime about airsofting and I have it ready to watch hahahaha.

As stupid as it is - just be thankful we're not in Australia or Thailand etc.

Just FYI - I could do that for you if you wanted....being a custom painter an' all.

That's pretty much it AFAIK. Same gearbox, motor, wiring and 6.03 tbb. You could effectively turn a Gen 2 into a Gen 3 by wiring in an active breaking mosfet (ironically it would be more reliable if you used a decent fet like the NanoAB).

Ed's here, everyone run for the hills!

Or use Isopropyl?

Also is a great thing to know in a "CALL YOUR F***ING HITTTTT!!!!!!" bloodbath haha

^^Some suppressors have a CCW thread at one end and CW at the other. Spartan Doctrine ones do iirc.

Centurion Airsoft have a Multi Rotor with a camera they use as a Drone on their site.

UKARA

There seems to be a question mark over the reliability of these G&G MOSFETs. Dunno. I mean, if you're going to end up putting a different MOSFET in it, maybe it would make sense to just put one in the G&P. Still, I hate M4's so what do I know?

Goggles ffs! They don't search the internet, do they!?!

I wouldn't give up on it so soon. Check out some yank forums where a lot of Polarstar techies hide. Some guys like 'SilentObvervant' from reddit are really knowledgeable,as is Bingo from Bingo airsoft works. AirsoftMechanics is also a great place to discuss those kinds of issues. There could be a myriad of issues and might be easy to fix. Could be nozzle alignment issues or it could be that the Fusion engine itself is not releasing the same amount of air all the time due to an issue with the poppet valve or something.

If it's your gun, do what you want.

Any of the G&G combat machine line, basically lots of choice based on what you like the look of. Not the only place that sells them but Pro Airsoft Supplies are always highly recommended: http://www.proairsoftsupplies.co.uk/acatalog/m4_and_m14_variants.html

August may not be such a good idea as there is both the AI500 and NAE14 that month, as well as Brit Tac's Op: Shining Light at Copehill Down (assuming the MOD don't bump that again). Bear in mind also that the MOD not only can but will bump your event regardless of how far along with planning and prep you are, or that you've already taken deposits. You know what it's like, eh? Training for serving soldiers will come first, but expecting that to be subject to what we in the civilian world would call 'organisation' is to fundamentally misunderstand what the word 'logistics' actually means in military parlance...

I was so upset that NAE is on exactly the same dates as Reading Festival :'(

good guys and bad buys being allowed to wear the same camo pattern is a friendly fire nightmare waiting to happen... even with the MPF having one half as a solid colour you'll have problems. For example, you're fighting in some woods and you see a guy wearing a DPM top but you can't see his legs, what to do? I'd shoot him, but I'm a bit of a dick like that! Brit tac have a good idea with their shemaghs, red force all have to wear a black&white shemagh, looks suitably terroristy without resorting to armbands and allows people to instantly ID the other team.

Wait... What's that you say? Ed's been spotted with an AR15 free float rail on his AK??!!

I might just ban everyone who posts in this thread. It's a new rule haha.
