CaptainDumBass why are you headbutting your keyboard.? I have a V2 SMP with an M4 nozzle sitting here waiting to go into a scar, I like scar's and realy love the look of my tm scar. I'm a member of the wolverine users group on facebook and according to them the only scar you can drop a standard V2 SMP into is the VFC one. All others need a different nozzle. And as has been said already, the VFC is the nicest externally.

To be honest though if you're going to the effort of fitting an SMP, having the best externals to go with it would be my choice. The g&g might be far superior to you but if he's swapping the internals it doesn't matter as the vfc has the better externals.

You can do that with a G&G scar mate? You can fit an SMP into any version 2 or 3 gearbox....!

G&G Scar's are far superior in my opinion, theyre cheaper and still in production also, Long barreled version: http://www.landwarriorairsoft.com/airsoft-weapons-c38/electric-rifles-c45/g-g-gk16-l-desert-scar-l-long-p1601 CQC Version: http://www.landwarriorairsoft.com/airsoft-weapons-c38/electric-rifles-c45/g-g-gk16-l-cqc-desert-scar-l-short-p1599

VFC SCAR-L is discontinued, only way you'll get one now is second hand.

Yeah, It says in title Scar L, which is the Mk16

Whilst you are at it, why not attach an electric kettle under there too? equally as practical and useful as having a pistol there.

Good choice on the starting stuff so far, even went for midcaps! The go-to brand for good value bb's tend to be Blaster Devils 0.25g - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ASG-DEVIL-BLASTER-6MM-BBS-0-25G-3000-WHITE-25-AIRSOFT-6MM-PELLETS-/221446924024?pt=UK_SportingGoods_OtherSports&hash=item338f43e6f8 There's endless arguments to which are the best, but they're one of the more popular - and budget friendly, options. Glasses are going to be more tricky, don't think I've seen anyone wear eye pro over glasses before. One option is to go for Revision goggles (or another brand which does the same) and get prescription inserts for them, but I imagine these would fog up like hell. 'fraid I cant be much more help with that.

Yep, all too often people spend a fortune on upgrades and convince themselves that their gun is better than it actually is. Plus no amount of tactical frippery makes up for being a crap shot!

Yes, my first meme. Internet famous #official

Contemplating more stuff from eHobby Asia cos off the offers on Magpul stuff.

My main reason for using the site is its about 10 minutes from my house so easy enough to get to, parking doesnt sound ideal though

It's not as bad as some when wet (gunsmoke was one massive bog), but the parking is on the edge of the lane going past the site. One time I went with a mate his car started sliding off the road, damaged an alloy getting it back up. But Raven's is great fun during the warmer months, large woodland area with some fun cqb sections as well. Safe zone is a bit ramshackle though, could do with some work. Edit @Josh: Afraid not, they've only started doing those quite recently. But with a site that size and a decent turn out I know they could pull off some fun milsim-lite games.

I know of 3 sites close to Colchester, only one I've been to at Ipswich is Ravens. Great woodland site, nice chap who runs it, although think I'll wait a month or so before I go back to let things dry out a bit. Parking's not great there unfortunately and it gets even more interesting after heavy rain. Around Colchester there are- Bunker 39 at Fingeringhoe (hurr hurr) Gunsmoke near Tiptree Raw War in Weeley direction Second two are primarily paintball sites which have started to get into Airsoft, might be one more but cant think of where it is..

Ive heard that sandpit is good to, my other halfs family live in gravesend so may give it a try myself at some point.

They are out of stock on both those sights bud.

And now i've got a high fever, shivering like a rabbit in a country butcher's, and horrendous phlegm. That's sort of more for my birthday than xmas, but i'm sure you can imagine that being born on 2nd Jan meant i usually got 1 lot of pressies for both, so i'm considering the toothache and fever as combined.

Hi I haven't had the chance to compare the two. My mate had this one but in black: http://shop.ehobbyasia.com/aeg/we/we-scar-l-aeg-tan.html#.VKc_WCusWuQ Which he bought from here: www.Airsoftarmoury.co.uk in person All i can say was that the WE SCAR my mate had was of pretty good quality with full metal upper receiver, ABS plastic lower receiver and ABS plastic stock. The upper is of a very high quality build with very solid feel to it, it hasn't got trades, has a cocking handle which when locked back reveals the hop up adjustment, it has RIS rails on the sides and a monolithic one on top, if i recall the rails were made of solid metal. The lower was made of a high quality and feel ABS plastic which in my experience feels similar to G&G ABS plastic (all my AEGs are from G&G) and the selector lever has a positive click when rotated thanks to a spring loaded BB hidden inside it (similar to most weapons). The stock is made from the same ABS plastic and swings round to the right of the weapon (round ejection side), the slide is extendible and also has a general solid feel to it. Batteries go in the folding stock by removing the butt plate with plenty of space inside for large-ish batteries, connection is via mini Tamiya. The Barrel is NOT a tightbore (and i can't remember the lenght) but it is a brass barrel if i recall, hop up unit is made of plastic and has a black no name brand hop up rubber and bucking. Mechbox is a standard V2 gearbox, it appeared to me to be well shimmed and had been through QC as there was a QC sticker on it (no idea what the QC involved), wiring was pretty standard the brittle feeling 18AWG wire, it is rear wired as expected. Motor was a no name brand motor in the handle (like any standard M4 motor) it is also a long shaft motor. ROF and FPS were pretty low stock though, i am guessing his was a bit of a dud as the shop we got it from was pretty pants selling pretty much crappy gear, it was dusty, messy, unorganized, old BBs lying on the floor everywhere, stuff said to be in stock on the website was not etc etc and yes he dropped £450 in that shop on that day for everything gun, BBs, battery etc. Stock ROF: around 16 rounds per second (RPS) Stock FPS: around 280 Feet per second (FPS) Pants isn't it! I was guessing a combination of poor compression sealing, standard bore barrel, bad hop up and crappy motor When gave it to me to tech I suggested to him the following: Tightbore Better hop up and bucking M110 spring Better motor Being tight on cash he went for all the above except the motor, in the end his RPS was around 15 (due to stiffer spring) but his FPS went from 280FPS to about 345FPS (with some hop adjustment), he has since asked me to put a better motor in it so i will be getting him a high speed one and changing the tamiya to Deans. My only gripes with this gun were the following from worst to least concern, these are problems that cannot be remedied using after market parts to upgrade or change things on this gun: When the stock is folded the wires from the tamiya connector (ie battery) going to the mechbox are visible and exposed, they could snag, split or break as they are cheap no name 18AWG wires. The butt plate is held in place with one pin, for some reason my mates one keeps falling out by itself causing the butt plate to fall off, we had to tape it down at a recent skirmish to ensure he didn't lose it. I am guessing that his particular gun was a display model that got fiddled with a bit and some one had lost the retention clip. The stock is very (read very) difficult to extend or make it shorter, you have to depress a button or lever and move it but its very awkward to do. The cocking handle when released feels weak and soft, unlike a real gun where is a short sharp CLICK noise, this gun sounds very poncy, that is because the spring that does this is a low compression spring. I was however able to up this using a mechbox spring and made it feel manly again but the spring kept dropping slightly as it was not centred and getting in the way of the cocking handle so had to remove it. Hope this helps you make a more educated decision, my mate is giving me his gun again on Monday to put his motor in (yes i know its easy he could do it himself but he's scared he will break it) so i might be able to upload you a quick review of it some time next week.

I want one of those but I can't moan ... I got a dboys aks74u and it's amazing for the price..... Treating myself is best! I also got 4000 .2gr pro ball bb's.

I agree with Ian, I love the russian style guns and now I have 3 ak variants( real sword, a dboys aks74u and a tactical ak47 not sure if it's a Cyma or a jg.... Long story), I prefer the version 3 gearbox system .

In keeping with the updated AK look, pics of my SRC AKS74U GBBR (reposted from AK picture thread) having just fitted a Vector rail (not straightforward!), AFG, soundhog and reflex holo sight.

Been working on my SRC AKS-74U GBBR, added a real steel Vector Rail, PTS AFG and Noveske Soundhog, all sourced from Dedsec on here. Plus a reflex type holo sight I already had. Fitting the rail was not straightforward as it is a fraction longer than the original handguards and also needed a new narrower gas tube fabricating from various pieces of brass tube, this was a pain to get right but still be large enough to allow the gas piston to move freely inside. Moving the Front sight/gas block forward about 7mm on the barrel solved the length issue thankfully. After all the work it works fine and I'm really pleased with the outcome. So apologies to those who like their AK's to have wood furniture, but my 2 AEG's do have wood furniture if that helps lol!

Not in the same game lol... one of the games there are a blue and red hanky placed in doorways usually. The objective is to finish the time with your colour hanky on top of the enemies.. Sounds ok, but in reality you have 15 people bottlenecked in at doorways swapping the hankys over using the barrel of their guns or at worse pulling the cloths into their teams doorway more so there is no chance of it being swapped back. Cant remember what the nuts and bolts are for. Think you have to take the nuts one at a time back to your base, but the site is so small the objectives are pretty pointless. Epsom tunnels used flashing strobe lights, a little like the skips lights but in red as an objective last week, teams had to defend the lights and had to fall back to next objective when shot, attackers had to take strobes back to safe zone, game ended when all three strobes returned. Was very good fun.

Resistance is futile!!! Mwahahahahaha!! lol

I'm not a total purist, i just can't abide Crane stocks on AK's. Even though some MVD units do actually use them on real steel. But those arses have been photographed wearing multicam ffs, not even a Russian version of it either, actual Crye MC. This is what the well dressed Spetsnaz soldat is carrying this season: ...stock, top cover & RIS by Zenitco.

or not, as others have so eloquently put it, no one cares.

Forgot about the warrior assault systems hydration carried in MC and a Source 3L bladder with helix valve
