I am also grounded! I've been told no more Airsoft, golf, fishing or gym until the my loft conversion is finished...... However i played Airsoft last night, was at the driving range tonight, 18 holes Sunday and the gym 1 hour a night, every night! 30 and grounded, I love it.

Finally got one Absolutely beastly bit of kit it's my mates and unused I tried it Wednesday night and just wow got quite a few kills and the sound scares the enemy in the dark haha so I bought it off him Highlight was hearing an enemy player whimper after I cocked it " he's got a shotgun nooo "

Thought I'd leave this here: my ASG MK23. Not to everyone's tastes but I just love the idea of an "assault pistol".

Thats a nice reply, still tell him where to stick it though.

You sound like a fair and honest guy. He sounds nieve and like he is being taken for a long and expensive walk by a shop who saw him coming. 7weeks is well beyond refund timescales imo. You have already offered more help than most would.

He likely messed with it, broke it and is now blaming you for his idiocy. You are not in the wrong, and he isn't viable for a refund.

I would love to see the looks on the other team when they hear the order "Fix bayonets!"

as she got an oven....ive added a MTP smock, new rigger type belt and a coyote camelback** to arrive Monday to the collection..... should all get used....even to dress up with the kids at home....daughter as a princess/fairy. son as batman/power ranger, dad as a wally in camo!! **will fill it with hot chocolate for the winter games!

M170? You'll probably destroy the gearbox and exceed the FPS limit of your site but yeah, it might work.

Tokyo Marui Foliage Warrior. My first TM gun, and I think I'll be buying more of their pistols in future. HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGE image, because my phone seems to like uploading giant photos

looks better on the now fully finished polarstar with my just arrived Retro Arms Red Trigger. The Punisher skull isn't staying on, was bored lol.

Yes. It's not a local site for me but I have been to a couple of WW2 games there and it is a really good site.

Charger arrived, batteries arrived...all looking good Thanks for the offer of the lend of kit, really appreciate that Oh and talking of young...I'm 43

Yup 48yrs young, smoker so I fully understand about fitness etc.... First thing forget ya K D bollox I'll gladly let the younger lot go sprinting off all guns ablazing I'll hold base, or try a sneaky road less travelled route to get a few kills before I'm taken out Failing that I'll go for a decoy or diversion mode of play Hopefully my younger or the more professional players will seize the moment to gain ground whilst my hairy ol'ar$e is being shot to bits..... I know I'm never gonna own or dominate but I play for fun or $hits n giggles that is all.... By all means go for a sniper role, but you can have a great time if you don't take it all too serious and try to play above your level and be something you are not. No offense meant, give it a go but by all means try a few different styles of play without the stress if you succeed or not. You could very well make a good sniper but above all don't get too stressed if things don't always work out. Learn your own strengths n weaknesses but above all enjoy being an unfit saddo with you guns Well it works for me

Yeah general consensus is that if you've not earned it then don't wear rank slides, berets, etc. Best left at home or to be worn as an impression at military fairs/reenactments. Personally I would zip tie the scrim net to your boonie hat when sniping - breaks up your outline more and let's you cover your optics when shooting from a hide. I've done this myself with my boonie hat and it works really well. Being zip tied on means it's very easy to remove as well afterwards or if you don't like it.

Hi all Recently uploaded a video to Youtube doing a review of the Mancraft kit for the VSR, I also install it etc so please watch if you intend to Mancraft your rifle.

i have a cyma 028 (the b model i think with the collapsing stock and ris on the hand guard), fantastic gun, great trigger response, amazing range ..... £ for £ i think there better then a g&g CM16

Exactly! Would be like having an ultra portable rocket launcher

Yeah I think it would be amazing, how i'd imagined it was hitting a wall directly behind three guys in cover and it taking them all out.

Howdy, I'm in the process of getting a friend of mine to make me a rubber copy of my knife (becker tac tool, see below), for use in skimishes, and I was thinking, if possible, make it into a bayonet for my rifle (see below), initial thoughts are to mount a 2 small blade tech TMMS (http://shop.blade-tech.com/small-tmms-outer-inner-p-725.html#.VfK6dPlVhBd), one on the back and front of the knife grip, cutting off the forward ones retention clip for ease of removal, unless anyone has a better idea?

I want to be on it. A lot of my fellow Bolsheviks are going but I can't at the moment - will have to call in a few favours at work since we're not technically allowed holiday time in December...

Yep I'm on it

Just started playing this and it got me thinking about how is a game as old the first halo still one on the most fun Fps games around. Are the more modern fps taking themselves too seriously and missing out on the fun element? Or is it just nostalgia?

To be honest, the buyer sounds a bit childish. I've bought guns and had them turn a bit crap after a while. Danger of second hand guns. End of. And the fact that you have been so helpful is a credit to you, i got none even though i just wanted advice. Give him an ultimatum of 'do this and ill do this' or just to jog on. Safe to say from everyone's response that your rep is well earned and will remain un tarnished

I have to agree. U are not bound under sale of goods act. But more importantly I don't think u have a moral obligation either. That said think the buyer sounds ok. I think u have both been very resonable and that u hav offered him plenty to try and resolve the issue with HIS gun as am sure we all do from time to time. I think what has happened is he has bought a gun that is far to advanced for him. He hasn't learnt the correct way to care/use it and he has f*cked something on it. I have seen this a lot! Wish that new players would start with a good mid range aeg. Also when u buy a SECOND HAND gun u must except that there is a risk. It won't come with a warrenty. This is why u are getting it at a cheeper rate. My advice; tell him u are willing to help as a fellow airsofter but if he pushes it or asks for money tell him to ........ Off.

Yeah but after 15 years most companies would have improved it.

ABSOLUTE BOLLOCKS Distance of goods crap is something like: quoted from here: http://www.which.co.uk/consumer-rights/regulation/distance-selling-regulations Your right to cancel an order The Distance Selling Regulations state that your right to cancel an order starts the moment you place your order and doesn’t end until seven working days from the day after you receive your goods. This is the minimum consumers must be given and many sellers choose to exceed this, so always check the terms and conditions in case you have longer to return your items. As this seven-day working period is the time you have to decide whether to cancel, by law the seller can’t say that you must have returned the goods within this time frame. Confirmation of your cancellation should be sent by email, letter or fax. I had this $hit once in particular on ebay from some clown who contacted me 19 days later what a w@nker he was trying it on ffs (zero feedback - new member that you can't block now on ebay) thought then he was trying it on to return another broken item that wasn't mine or had a change of heart - but most likely saying it was faulty suffice to say I no longer sell stuff on ebay you are trying to help the guy with offer of bits n bobs but he has had his chance if this was first contact and that store is trying it on even more than my ebay friendly buyer - who are they JBBG ffs ???

From what I've heard and seen Cyma ak's are great quality for the price and built like a tank. However I don't own one personally so you might wana ask about. (Also I've heard that Taiwangun are really good for them due to price or something)

I'll need a word with my mate as I've never done it but you never know lol

name and shame???

Turns out the partially-complete M870 I bought with a wooden stock for £195 was actually some bodge-job painted OEM stock, and the tank I bought (sold to me as a 'Tonic re-enforced' one) was also just a TM stock tank. Seller says this is my fault as it's my responsibility to know what the item is, and that because it was sold to him as being 'wood' that this is now my problem. People have no goddamn honour these days.

I own a CA m41es (g3a4) but not sold on it, may sell up n build an m14 dmr lol

It is possible, at work I deal with acrylic more than I like to. A good cooling system is required. Ours is air cooled, most engineering millers will be liquid cooled. Special acrylic milling bits can be bought which leave a better finish than a standard bit would leave, or a diamond bit can be used to leave a pretty much clear finish. We use flam polishing on any acrylic we cut but this is not ideal for something like a gear box, due to small holes and tolerances. The heat would warp it all. A chemical dip would be better.

Utter beast.

good back on topic and away from cars of the past!!.....i miss my mark 2 Golf GTi!

You can get some really nice glass rods and glass tubing for making scientific equipment. I'll have a word with our technicians and find out if a slightly larger than 6mm diameter is available. Its fairly easy to work but I would be curious if a bb fired down it might cause it to crack.

HK P9S.

always a bit of a trade off, got a new job that gives me more pennies to spend of airsoft goodies, but now hardly have time to get to a game, only managed three so far this year!

Hey John. Welcome to the site. The main reason for the 'don't go for a sniper rifle' is threefold: Firstly, (and surprisingly more than you'd expect) a lot of people get the impression that snipers are taking people out from hundreds of metres away in airsoft - that's just not the case. Minimum engagement distances on most sites for sniper rifles firing around the 400-500fps mark is 15m, but rarely will you see someone being hit over 50m. Basically most 'kills' happy between 15 and 40 metres, and this is well within the scope of a lot of mid-range AEGs. For this reason, the gun alone is rarely competitive. This brings me onto point two. Secondly, it's a different play style that not a great deal of players are actually suited to. You need to be very patient and you need to show up with the knowledge that you might well just be properly outgunned and outmanouvred and may walk away from that day with only a handful of kills. Many new players get turned off after their first or second game using just a sniper rifle and can't justify forking out more money for a different gun and lose interest. Thirdly is the money. You can't really show up with an out-of-the-box sniper rifle and expect it to out-compete everything else. You can turn up with an out-of-the-box AEG and be on par with some of the very expensive stuff most of the time. Expect to spend upwards of £450 on a sniper rifle (if you include the stock gun) on upgrades before it can consistently be hitting those further ranges, have a decent trigger break and a clear scope. Conversely, there are some good entry-level AEGs that you can get for £150 with everything that you need to get started. That said, if you want to snipe then go for it. There are plenty of videos out there that may give you a feel for what you might be in for (just remember they tend to edit most of the boring waiting around out). I don't think your situation means you can't go the usual route. I joke about a lot of people just standing by trees and popping off shots but that's genuinely what a good portion of players do throughout the day when they're tired of running or just not really wanting to get too muddy - I get it. I feel you'd be fine with an AEG and not moving fast a whole lot - most woodland games a medium sized sites tend to have one or two large firefights and not much else, so excessive moment to push up or fall back generally isn't required. There are quite a few older players who simply use decent knowledge of the site and good cover to score their kills so there's no reason you couldn't do that as well over time.

If you want to mix it up, then you could give the UCAP Bunker in Portsmouth a go. CQB in underground tunnels, dark and deadly.

Yea as ex serving raf I see any rank in airsoft wrong. But as I say the rest of the load out looks spot on.

Does this count to be in here?

The Russians are really coming to Moldistan

I looked at the shield protectors and thought "Naaah Wont need that" 2 X Doh Doh Doh !!!!!

Legit. Whiney bitch.
