A Scorpion Evo with 4 mags and a 1300mah lipo. It's firing at 290fps and 19rps out of the box, should be fine while I play indoors over the winter. Absolutely love the build quality and trigger response.

Good thing about mesh eyepro is it never fogs, so you'll not be at as much risk of tripping over underbrush while you're Russian... Yes, I fucking went there... I'll get me coat! [good man yourself!]

Probably because I just ordered a load of WAS pouches a few days ago. Doh.

NEW GEAR!!

SPEND SPREE - AK105 E&L - Telniashka - Berezka gold leaf gorka I also got a mesh mask and eyepro and a watch cap. As I'm now at uni, I've decided to basically restart my kit from scratch. I've also decided to go Russian

Welcome to the forums.

Here's my Loadout. MultiCam based, all legit/ real steel. Nothing repro or replica APART FROM MY HOLSTER (because I'm daft and forgot to mention it first time...) Full list top to bottom: MilSpec ProIV Sordins- running independently rather than through comms. Revision Sawfly specs with Amber lenses. Gumshield teeth protection Ferro Concepts FCPC with TYR cummerbund and MOLLE panels, with Grey Ghost hydro, Warrior smoke/ grenade pouch, Warrior utility pouch, Tactical Tailor enhanced admin (moving to my belt). Front pouches are a Ferro triple M4 soft insert and a Blue Force Gear 10-speed triple over the top. Will be running 2 10-speed double pistol pouches and a replica Safariland for my TM Sig P226E2 on my belt, as well as I'm moving the admin panel there too most likely! Rifle is a VFC M27 IAR with various accessories and my rifle sling is a genuine Magpul MS3. Secondary rifle is my custom G&G GC16. That is on top of a full Crye AC combat set in MultiCam, with Karrimor Salomon style boots, cheapo watch and Mechanix gloves. Been asked a couple of times about total costs etc and I estimate the value of this kit to be around £2100. This isn't an impression kit, just all stuff I like and I've had access to. First picture is kit about 2 months ago- second pic is most recent with the Crye top, VFC rifle and new setup on the FCPC.

Welcome!

Also just showing the bag with reg and tank in... snug fit

Been having some fun with the mag tap..

Not for me. My neighbor (dorm) asked me to add them to my order. I use better bbs than that, don't insult me

Barrel length does not affect range. Once a BB has travelled down the barrel far enough to reach it's maximum velocity and to stabilise, any extra barrel length makes no difference. In a real gun this length is quite long due to the explosive gasses, in an airsoft gun you only need a surprisingly short barrel. The barrels on my Sten and Owen guns are shorter than on an MP5 and they are both capable of very good range and accuracy. If you have changed the hop and the problem persists, check the barrel. If it had a cracked gearbox, there has obviously been some sort of stress on the gears. If this was caused by a blockage in the barrel it may have resulted in some damage. If the barrel is not straight of has been scratched by an unjamming rod, this may result in bad accuracy and range. And yes, you should ideally use 0.25's

I have 2 lipos coming with my AEG, firesupport had calmed my nerves as to be honest, after reading in here I wasn't so sure!!..... just be sensible charger you have ordered will cut out stop using batteries when you hear/see a slow down while using just read instructions if you carry the spare one, don't carry it with sharp objects!.....

It does take a whole 6 pack of loo roll, so you're looking at at least £3 material costs.

So basically, don't poke it

Take your hits, have fun.

So just a small update for people. My scope has turned up, but still waiting on the parts from Airsoft Peak. I had a rep from P* speak to me and they saw this thread and my two builds, they liked the guns and were grateful I did the guide. On the back of this we ended up speaking about performance and issues, I mentioned I was frustrated about the length of the FCU cable and they offered to send me one of each of my builds both of which are 5" longer than the standard. Brilliant customer service, really nice guys. Thanks Rodd, you did P* justice!!

You can knock up an adapter quite easily as you said The B6 comes with a few leads - or my clone B6 did.... You get a bannana connectors to male deans lead that does the charging to deans battery and the lipo's balance lead goes into the same side of B6 (right side) On the other side (right) you got what I think is a 2.5mm / 5.5mm socket for psu..... (centre of psu jack is positive polarity btw - but like most electronic stuff if unsure get a nerdy tech to check polarity first) On mine I got a 2.5/5.5 lead with crocodile connector leads that can be used/spliced for a psu input (if say a 12v to 18v psu's connector isn't correct one) Plus I got a few other leads with female deans connectors on them to plug on the male charging lead These can be spliced and used for tamiya adapter or just ripped off and fitted to a couple of lipo batteries if needed These should be supplied - or failing that a lead can be bought or knocked very easily Any splicing/adapters should be done properly or well insulated with little connecting blocks blah blah blah Not rocket science - just easy basic common sense like most stuff (says the guy who sets out to puncture lipo's and wonders why his hall is on fire - seriously don't be that stupid) If unsure get a geeky m8 to help check it all over - better safe than sorry B6 charges them lipo's through the deans connectors and even at a modest 1A charge it charges much quicker than the basic cheaper chargers that charge through just the thin balance connector (kinda understandable when you compare the difference in wire thickness for charging)

TM desert eagle with 2 mags Completely massive, completely awkward and cumbersome Had to modify an m4 mag pouch to use as a molle holster Did I mention it was massive and impractical ? But I love it
