Currently defending the honour of AFUK in the gulag at Red Alert in Newbury

@Daver - This thread exists to generate awareness within the AF-UK community regarding the price attached to certain adverts. On the whole AF-UK tends to have a lot of banter and at times it can have a very dry sense of humour, however, if an advert ends up in this thread usually it is warranted and how you choose to respond is up to you. At the moment your initial response was fairly reasonable, if somewhat final, which is perfectly fine but the follow up is typical of many responses we see from those who are either new to the forum or who take offence at the mere mention of the name here. A significant number of people who are mentioned in this thread fail to engage with it and that is entirely up to them. The two other types of people who tend to respond typically respond in one of two ways. The first way is to become defensive and, usually, abusive to some degree. The second type will either qualify their asking price (which you're by no means required to do) and/or seek feedback as to why their advert ended up being highlighted. One thing to bear in mind is that Hitman was not offensive towards you nor did he direct any criticism towards you beyond viewing your advert as "a little on the high side" which is perfectly understandable when you consider the asking price. This isn't to say that the asking price isn't justified, especially taking into consideration the Plano case costing around £140 by itself in the UK, but bear in mind that the general rule for airsoft guns and accessories tends to be 60% - 70% of retail, typically based on cheapest reputable retailer. Availability being the obvious caveat as a further consideration point. Finally, I'd recommend removing the batteries from the bundle and making them an optional extra. I'd also suggest doing the same for the optic and pouch. You may also want to fill in some details such as the manufacturer and model of the scope along with the manufacturer of the pouch.

Hi, ALL! 👋 Had a Great time at High Wycombe Airsoft today, one of my first sites I started out, under new banner! 🤪 Great catching up with my friend “Kronky“, making new friends! 👍 Also meeting @EDcase @Smiling-Dutchman and anyone else that was there apologies if not mentioned! 🔫😎👍 Look forward to going back when I next can? 🤔 💷GAMBLE💷

Its a pulsar argus G2+.

Had been considering a thermal scope for a while but ended up going for NV when an ex demo came up for sale.

Well you don't want 11.1v AND SHS 13:1 - just 11.1v as a cheap stop gap you don't HAVE TO install the mosfet right away either on a std motor (with tabs) you could just install a sb160 schotky diode across the cheap std motor with tabs to reduce arcing for a while... NB - DO NOT WRAP ONE AROUND A SHS, G&G MOTOR as the two screws connect/short through the mounting plate under end bell 101% of the time (but are insulated with plastic washers/sometime plastic screws etc... so just stopped from a short) YOU PLACE A DIODE IN A SHS TYPE MOTOR YOU CAN SHORT THE TWO TERMINALS (in a cheap std "2 tab" motor the poles never contacts the same section at same time) What they do - stop the spikes from motor/inductive load... loads of stuff out there but a before/after... https://youtu.be/F3IsdlBVwSI?t=260 & go to say 5:10 to see nearly no spark with diode https://youtu.be/F3IsdlBVwSI?t=310 (that spark is same arcing at trolley/switch in gun) So ICS know their stuff for reducing arcing - though wtf didn't they do this by default ??? However only for cheap 2 tab motors, even G&G cheapo 18k motors shouldn't have this fitted (coz shorting at the lock ring under end bell with added diode on SHS/G&G type motors) What this translates to - you can drop a diode in, run on 11.1v on shit motor and reduce the arcing thus not needing to install a mosfet straight away, to run on higher juice to squeeze out more zest NB does NOT eliminate arcing at switch like mosfet, but seriously reduce arcing from spikes for say 20p (on cheapo 2 tab motors) to run on higher juice perfect for cheapo £100 gun, you want to add a bit more zest with least fucking about out of the box (later on when it busts, needs a tweak then open & do the upgrades/mosfet etc...)

My Marui USP 9. As close as I can get it for Australian Commando spec. Detonator metal barrel. Repro surefire x300. Element repro surefire light mount. Sadly you can't fit a Jet Funnel magwell to a marui gun.

well chaps, after todays game day, i can conclude the tm mp7 gbb is a "lovelybitofkit" and "shootslikealaser", and im not 100% sold on the DMFP. also i said to myself 10 mins b4 packing up, wow ive managed to do a game day without something breaking. 10 mins later, i managed to somehow snap the little c clip that holds the mic to the headphones.

Had my first match at Matlock combat games yesterday. I had a really good time and I must say, my VSR and MK23 performed perfectly! Got some decent ranged kills with both. It was nice to be called over to a position to help get rid of enemy snipers who had people pinned down. Everyone was friendly and the day was well organised. Over 70 people turned up so they are going booking only from now on to keep it to 50 ish. Time to spend a few more quid on a harness for my battle belt. Although not a lot of weight on it, it was niggling my lower back a little, but that's the joys of having a slipped disc. Also purchased a cheap £35 shotgun for when I goto Leicester Gaol. So I'm hunting for a scabbard. Should be it kit wise for a while!

solid advice there the mistake you're making is trying to sell everything as a single package. you're selling a vector, meaning your prospective buyer is probably going to be more interested in it as a cqb gun, therefore a magnified optic like that is worthless to them. same applies for the drum mag, some folk just dont like marracca's hanging off their gun so for those people a drum is just going to be something that's either not going to get used or is hassle for them to sell on. as freefrag correctly points out if a manufacturer isn't specified and it can't be easily identified from the photos then people reasonably have to assume the worst when estimating value. for example if i were in the market for a vector and saw that ad what i'd see is a gun, some midcaps, couple of batteries in unknown condition and a bunch of stuff that will either need to be sold on again or end up permanent residents in various boxes of random airsoft bits. now you could strike lucky and find someone who just happens to want, whilst simultaneously not currently having, exactly the combination of bits your selling. but that's really narrowing your market.

It will depemd what torch. I picked up an FMA G17L holster and will be trying it out this weekend. I use a we glock 17 and have fitted a surefire x300 replica.

Dear Mods, Please get rid of the search function, its clearly not used and the space on the top of the page could be better used with just a link to google.
