Personally I totally agree with the players that complained to the Marshals and believe this should be dealt with in the strongest possible terms. Why do I feel so strongly on this issue, Two reasons: First it’s a matter of player safety. If a player is allowed to get away with this behaviour then the only realistic way for the enemy team to react is to treat everyone doing the ‘dead mans walk’ as a live player and open fire. This is going to lead to massive over shooting/over killing on the poor sods who are genuinely ‘dead’ and actually making the slog back to the safe zone/respawn. Yes there is an argument that dead players should have pistols holstered and hand/rifle in the air, but the reality is this only happens until they have withdrawn from the firefight that killed them and is impractical if the terrain is even moderately uneven and the respawn is more than about 50 yards away, particularly on larger sites where there can be multiple engagements between where a player ‘died’ and the respawn. Secondly, it is completely unrealistic and against the spirit of the game in an honesty based system that is intended to mimic engagements with firearms. It is not being clever or sneaky it is just as dishonest as players who don’t take their hits, in fact more so as there is no possible argument that the offending player may not have felt a BB at the end of its range that hits a bit of gear. It is straight out gaming the mechanics of the system.

Cheating cunt. If his pistol is out of the holster he is fair target. Dead man walking has hand raised (or red flag) and weapons out of hands/holstered.

I say 100% cheating , no one keeps there arm in the air the whole time on the long walk of death back to where ever (gets too bloody heavy !), so you try to walk as none offensively as you can chucking out the odd “dead player !” Every now and again , trying to stick open area’s on route(middle of the field , centre of the road/track) just so hopefully you won’t be seen as an active player . As others have said most definitely NOT in the spirit of the game at all , also as has been said stuff like this leads to escalation and that’ll just destroy the gameday for everyone . One or two do it and before you know it it just turns in to a stagnant shit storm no ones leaving the game area because they know there going to get hosed so they stay where they are not taking there hits AND it all goes to ratshit ! if someone is walking in plain view in a none combative state then you should be able to assume there dead and not a threat . So yea anyone who does this is a cheat in my book and I have very little respect for you or your gameplay .

Not the spirit of the game. Do it once, raise a laugh perhaps. More than once is a bit naughty. Do it regularly and game days are spoiled.

Seen this one discussed a few times over the years, actually did it one time about 12 years ago when I first started because I thought 'wow what a genius move nobody's ever done this'. Felt kinda like cheating, looked a bit like cheating, has no place in the average game with no LARP elements. I've always fancied a US deadrag system myself for this reason, saves a tired arm if you're outdoors with a long walk to spawn. Comes down to a simple thing though - just put one in to anyone who doesn't have a hand up. If they whinge it's their own fault. I mean watch them for a second or two just in case they're switching hands obviously, but after that it is 100% their problem and if they get shirty they're an idiot.

Here are the results. You can see how hot the G&P bolt (left side) is running compared to the stock Marui (right side). As I said the gas used was Abbey Ultra Predator gas. Geoffs Super Precision 0.3s and Excel 0.2s were used. Ill have a go with the normal Abbey green gas tomorrow and post up. I’ll get round to updating the excel too when I get a moment.

What next though? Hiding your ARMBAND, because hey the marshal didn't say we COULDN'T!?

This is a 50/50, in some circumstances it's ok, but in some it's shady as fuck. I've done it, BUT it was a night game, I'd gotten in to the large enemy encampment & casually strolling around in the darkness as if I was meant to be there was the only way to access the HQ building (& blow it up lol), game over & everyone laughed at my audacity, no complaints. But to do that in broad daylight, I think I'd get the hump too, & let's be honest, we've all got the hump when being repeatedly shot when doing the "dead man's walk", if people started pulling that shit regularly, it'd soon descend in to chaos, dead players being hosed just because they didn't look "dead enough" lol Edit ps just seen that cyberlawyer has made the same point regarding dead players, soz🤪

***** SOLD ***** Gun 4 sale works (i fink) PM me

I've been lurking here a while, and I've had a lot of comments about these Racals, so I decided it's about time I actually joined and posted something (hopefully interesting to the community). So I got fed up with breaking and fixing repro comms kit for myself and the team, (now on my 6th headset in 2 years playing). But I didn't want to fork out £500 on peltor comtacs. I'm sure many of you can relate to this. I found real steel Racal Frontier headsets being sold off dirt cheap. The catch being they come with a lemo connector for military prr radios. I read the threads on the lemo connectors and the price of adaptors and custom PTTs and thought what the heck, I'm going to have a go at modifying a set to work with a TP-120 / u-94 ptt. So a bit of experimentation later, I figured out a tidy way of doing it. I've done a few with with a Kenwood 2 pin cable to go straight into a Baofeng, retevis etc. radio. I've also done a few with genuine peltor tp120 cables to go into a u94 PTT on your shoulder. And I have to say, I'm dead chuffed with the results. The custom ear moulds are made from polymorph plastic. It melts in hot water and is hand (or in-your-ear) mouldable. The headsets are pretty slick. They electronically allow talk through, but limit the volume, the radio comes in your left ear and the cool bit is the microphone picks up from inside your right ear. Even at a whisper. I also like that there isn't a big can on your ear getting in the way of your cheek weld! The set on my plate carrier is my first off. The ones with the curly cables are a later version where I've managed to do all the mods inside the control box so the cable is all intact right into the control box. Anyway there's my show and tell, I'd be interested to see what you guys think! PS. The diagram in the background is a different project - Music phone and comms in my snowboard helmet (don't try and put that in a Racal!) PPS. If there's interest in these I'll put a post in the Classifieds.

i've seen it done a few times, whilst it's not technically against the rules it is against the spirit of the game. after all, people are (rightfully) conditioned not to pump more rounds into someone when they're plainly doing the dead walk because that's the literal definition of overshooting. so all you're achieving by pulling these shenanigans is making it so that they'll just shoot everyone just in case. if he wants to dress up in the enemy teams pattern then let him, and don't listen to him whinging about getting freindly fired as a result. one site i go to will sometimes do it, generally it's dpm/mtp versus everyone else but they only do it when they've got equal enough numbers.

Excuse me I most certainly am! 🤪 Regards

..... Back in the day we would say that ankle bands meant something very different

One would think there was and had been more than one on the planet ? Well done , see your not as thick as you look ? 😉

Some HiCapa parts to disguise the Novristch SSP1 I bought when I got back into Airsoft

Got 2 SigAir ProForce MCX, took a pic before I part with 1. My plan is to make a short MCX, if a friend in the US is able to obtain the handguard while he is over there. Please excuse the bad photoshop job, there are basically no side profile images of the 6" handguard, so had to improvise 🤣 Will also include original photo. Not sure what battery options I will have with the 6" though!

It wouldn't be worth selling. "I'll give you £60 delivered for that unused AEG".....nah, would rather keep it to one side for a mate to use.

Oh my God! I just put two mags through my G&P bolt! It’s how can I put it eloquently running as hot as Mount Etna during a heat wave! I’ll update the spreadsheet in a bit. Basically I used Geoff’s 0.3 shooting 20 bbs with both the G&P bolt and then with the Marui bolt. Each time I made sure the mag was full of gas. The temperature was an ambient 20c. Then I switched to 0.2 Excel bbs ( hard as nails but old) and again quite surprised. So four tests done. The bottom line is the G&P bolt is running way too hot! The gas used was Abbey Ultra Predator gas in the red can even though it’s a green gas!

No never. We watch emmerdale,corrie and enders lol. Is it summat to do wiv starwars?

I already see this to a degree of rule bending / cheating: Players who put their armband on the back of goggle straps - I’ll happily give them an extra one if they really just want to be identified from the back as well Attempting to not show the arm with an armband is fair enough Even better is to band both arms, (though in the long term that doubles the cost of one of the site overheads, especially when using tape) or to specify arms such as red left, blue right I like faction clothing styles, but it’s difficult to ensure people comply. At one Falkands based event we defined the upper half of your body as ‘faction wear’. Brits were DPM, so one guy decided to be Argentinian with a DPM assault vest, he wouldn’t change sides or accept loan gear, so we had to point him out in the morning brief: ”Argentinians - please don’t shoot this guy in the vest, Brits please do”

I would also say both. I have a lot of pistols, but what it comes down to is the GBB will be a better "they're close and I must shoot" gun, where the mk23 will basically outperform people's AEGs at a slower trigger pull while being really quiet. Both have their merits and both are useful.

I've seen some videos of these, and they look great! New players, and players on a budget have it so good nowadays!

Double Eagle M904G (Honey Badger). Less than £120 delivered from Taiwangun. This thing is a lot of gun for less than some places sell Raven Glocks. Solid build, flat trigger with intuitive programmable mosfet (battery protection, 2 - 5 round burst, trigger sensitivity and binary mode). Quick change spring (was sent firing right around 340fps as advertised). Heck, it even comes wired to deans! I don't think it'll replace my Scorpion Evo (which BTW was three times the price) but if I was a new player and/or on a budget I'd happily use this at every skirmish. As it stands it'll serve as a backup or loaner.

They do have an odd odour I must say so..... I’m actually thinking of getting an Evo as a matter of fact as a back up which I can carry strapped to my back when I can’t DMR...

He isn’t bullet proof while asking someone what side they are on Absolutely I see these as two rules: Surrender: A request for the opposition to accept elimination. They can take it or shoot back, when calling surrender you should be ready to enforce it (and you might be bluffing due to running out of ammunition, so sometimes you get lucky & sometimes you don’t Tag: You are close enough to touch, and in doing so you achieve the elimination. There is no choice for the eliminated player (You could also be out of ammunition, but you successfully tagged) I’m less keen on a generic ‘bang’ rule, to me it sits between surrender and tag and I prefer the option of surrender at a short distance or tag close up

On the gas front some of the higher pressure gasses can cause light striking. And some will strike and open but close too quickly to have a benefit or decreased FPS over a lower pressure gas. Obviously this is also temperature dependent and also varies with mag/gun combination with different brands. I just use green in mine. You can just do the barrel and get 350 but there tends to be a common thread of upgrades that people do . Most notably a tdc hop adjustment on the most part.

Equally he may have ran out of bbs or he could have had a jam or he could have been a crap shot. All is fair in love and war. Only one bb hit would be needed. He can’t complain. But I get being nice to younger players. I do the same.

Hi-flow valves modded from stock and a longer inner barrel. 400 one is an old 6.03 I cut to about 250mm. The 350 one is the CJ one that sticks out a little on a standard gun, think it's 150mm.

I've heard of this kind of thing before and I agree with Cyberlawyer. Not in the spirit of the game and if done too often it endangers the true walking dead. It can be hard enough telling friend from foe with walking dead from both teams going back and forth. (Many don't have their hand up for more than a few metres) Imagine if it became a trend by certain people, the games would descend into chaos and practically unplayable.

@Enid_Puceflange playing Devils advocate here........ If you was actually dead and was indeed walking back to spawn and someone hosed you down would you be pissed off/kick off/moan to marshalls ?? You would only pull that one once with me as I would “trip-tap” you any time I saw you in the game zone

And that was my opinion 👍

I'd say he was being cheeky and seeing if he could get away with it

Little maglite widget that happens to fit in SureFire scout lights to add polycarb protection came in yesterday. New Evo came in today, old one'll be for sale just a heads-up haha.

Yeh, it makes a change from the sea of M4's out there.

As a secondary for a secondary, those pistol grip grenade moscart launchers can be really fun, you been spotted, that glock or mk23 is a good secondary but the grenade launcher is like the spanish inquisition, no one expects that 😀 ( just dont be a dick and open up close with a 40 mike) I had the cyma one when i was running a vsr + glock. Good fun

It's to show you how it "could" look. Like how they put clothes on a manequin to show them off. Argueably a gun with no attachments is NSFW because it's naked.

What puts me in Hulk mode is when they say "does not include optics or bi pod or sling oh and the light is extra if you want it" Please take them off before taking pic. Easy. Regards

Blurred photos means a lazy seller, which generally means that you'll get some "lol m8 thnx 4 interust but i dunno wut paypal n postage wil b ill get back 2 u" message. The amount of stuff that I've not bought 2nd hand would keep Steve Glennie in hookers and blackjack money for life.

Better yet the gun is caked in mud or general filth. Like how hard is it to not be a dirty bastard and give your shit a quick 2 sec wipe down before uploading photos of it? nobody is going to buy your stuff when it looks like it's been used as an entrenching tool.

The peak in 2017/18 was not that unusual al though granted, higher than it's been for a while. Nevertheless it was still a strain of influenza coupled with the particularly cold weather so a known quantity. The current situation is down to a novel virus with no effective vaccine as yet. We are in uncharted territory and as such life has to step away from normality to deal with it. Like it or not, the most effective way of stopping viral spread is isolation. Huge chunks of the population have demonstrated their unwillingness to comply with even the most simple of guidance so we find ourselves in the current situation. Have the government handled it well? Of course not, but I very much doubt that ANY political party would be handling it well without the general consensus of the population and if this country has proven ANYTHING over the last few months it's that there IS no consensus among the general public, most of whom seem to lack even the most basic of common sense. As for Manchester, it all just looks like political point scoring at the cost of the people of Manchester. Somehow if Corbyn or Starner were in power I doubt very much that Burnham would be kicking up as much fuss even if presented with the exact same scenario.

@Smiling-Dutchman Keep an eye out for this one if it gets put up for sale... 😎

If you don't have your hand in the air, your not dead to me, so you get shot at. It's sneaky tactics, but if noone on the opposing team even challenge/called out to them to ask or remind them to put their hand up if they were hit, then they were not being observant.
