No, that would be very unsportsmanlike, we were trained to kick em in the balls (or any other fleshy bits) to see if we get an oof or squeal, then we'd shoot them. Maybe we could adopt this practice in Airsoft for cheaters ? 😭🤣

I’ve done very, VERY irresponsible thing, considering the neck deep shit I will be in if my workplace closes down due to next lockdown... I’ve got ANOTHER gun but the deal was way too good to pass on as I was planning on getting one eventually. Pretty much half price Ares SOC-AR - sure it’s a bit worn but it only adds character 🥺 will be here next week hopefully!

So this guy has this TM delta for sale. He wants £850 for it. The same gun was on sale previously for £525. He did a px for something this guy had and paid cash to make up the diff. Now this guy is selling the same gun for £300 more. Taking the pi$$ I’d say! https://forums.zeroin.co.uk/forum/classifieds/rifles-smg-s-for-sale/ebb-rifles-smg-s/3178484-tm-416 Update: Ooooops, There were an additional £300 in upgrades done to it...... duh. There you go folks I should have had all the facts before going on a rant lol

I'd assumed the bullet points were a fun diagram of BBs flight during a quick tap semi burst.

Update on my URGI build... The genuine Magpul SL-K stock arrived from Brownells. Bought a clone Unity Tactical Mount, which although it looks pretty awkward having an optic mounted that high up IMO. However it works perfectly and having the optic mounted at this height is extremely comfortable! I also picked up a WADSN DBAL-A2 and a dual pressure switch to work alongside my M300 light. It's a snug fit but I managed to get everything on the rail where I wanted it. This DBAL-A2 is the polymer one which initially put me off, but it's much cheaper than the G&P version of which I've had two in the past and although they get rave reviews I was never that impressed with them. Secondly if I was that bothered with polymer over metal I'd never buy a TM pistol! 😂 Overall I'm really impressed with it and after putting quite a few bb's through the MWS zeroing the crossfire on it's new mounted, the DBAL-A2 seemed to gold its own zero. I will update this after a few games, but what with the new lockdown I doubt that will be for a while! After a recommendation from a mate I ordered a G&P aluminium buffer, this comes with three weights which you can add or remove as required. Again when I get chance I will record the various weights and compare them with the stock buffer. A couple of UAC sealing buffers to add to my spares list, currently trying to pick up a spare TM nozzle but looks like stock is zero everywhere! Lastly I've got a HAO Industries lightweight BCG on order after a very positive review from ATRG's blog. Will get that fitted with the G&P buffer and give my review also. Here's a few photo's, sorry for the crappy kitchen floor backdrop, it's howling outside and the best I could do on a Sunday morning!

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.

It's an unfair move. But. In real life people do pretend to be dead and surprise the enemy. So much in fact that in the armies (not UK) they are taught to shoot seemingly dead people when they are clearing a building.

Its a bit cringe (in the same way that banter during marshall briefing is) and not something I would do, if a mate pulled the same I'd deffo raise my eyebrows. Whilst I obviously wasn't there I'd be minded to think that the group of people did observe him, they just didn't light him up because people absolutely do kick off for suffering the indignity of being shot with a plastic pellet when they have already been shot with a plastic pellet. Once I was sneaking about in the woods "behind enemy lines" and come across a marshall and a player having a chin wag, make my way past and the guy pops me. "I never said i was dead". I won't provide a physical description of the chap other then to say he was distinctly "low energy" and it is quite simply boiling my piss just thinking about it. This was well over 12 years ago now!!!! I'd love if it sites gave people red sacks wot like you get onions/potatoes in so we could make this unambiguous.

The easy option is to swap the spring out, or clip the existing one down. Though with the latter be sure to do this 'properly' it's not simply a case of clipping coils off, be sure to flatten it off and keep it clean. Using a piston with an airbrake is another option. Either way I'd advise settling on the ammo you're intending to use, get your hop dialed in and then do your chrono tests. Once you know what you're on joule/FPS wise with the RIF set up as you'd use it in a game it's easier to advise on which is the best option. If you're a little over, clipping a coil off is likely the most effective (both in terms of end result and cost). If you're a lot over, lower powered spring. If you want the option to fine turn further, piston with an airbrake. Until you've got the information as to what it's shooting on a consistent ammo weight with the hop set for that weight it's hard to advise with anything more precise than that. Welcome to the world of tuning a bolt action rifle, where changing one part has a tendency to waterfall into changing other bits. It’s half the fun... I guess 🤷🏻‍♂️.

I intend on using the TM nozzle and only have experience with that part. ATRG's review also uses the stock nozzle and he seemed impressed. https://atrg.blog/2020/10/19/accessory-review-hao-geissele-rebcg-ecoline-for-marui-zet-mws-gbbr/ Thats good to know mate, I will certainly check that out! My dbal-a2 is red laser, ir laser, and white light, all functions appear to be working correctly. I will put up my thoughts when the HAO bolt arrives and see how it gets on with the G&P buffer. 👍

I ended up with the wadsn dbal, does yours work on low power (green laser)? If you search for William Hicks on Facebook he's had extensive testing with the g&p buffer and he reckons the best setup is with a geissele automatics type 42 tungsten weight from Brownell's and has a video of him in 0°c mag dumping, zero cooldown. Also with a slight bit of movement in the buffers internal weights stops bolt bounce and jams. I've got the hao Econoline bolt enroute too, let us know when yours arrives and what you think please. Cheers.

I also kind of want one of these as a spare to much about with and to try and get to as high joules as possible. What is the optimal nozzle setup to run in it? Guns modify?

That’s super cool! Any chance you could drop us some samples of audio? I mean that whispering with in-ear microphone you’ve mentioned, how does it sound on the other end. But I wouldn’t call lack of cans a pro... those ear shots hurt man! 😅

Oh look, ANOTHER month of lockdown - because obviously last 3 months weren’t a colossal waste of time and money and didn’t cost thousands of jobs in the process... SMH, anyone hiring? I don’t feel like I’m going to make it through next redundancy wave...

Officially added an AR to the collection.

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.

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

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.

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.

I'm not sure I'd necessarily class it as either, for the most part I'd personally say it goes against the spirit of the game. But there's an arguement to be made for people in general just not making it clear if they're 'dead' or not. Tends to be a hand in the air for the 3 seconds that they're moving from their position to start to the walk back to a dead zone these days, and that's the point at which whether they're 'dead' or not become immediately unclear. Which is exacerbated by the fact dead folks sure do like to moan when you shoot them, despite them showing no signs they're 'out' for the time being. The easiest way to tell nowadays is 'are the shooting back at me', so I can see why those involved would question what was going on.

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.

【CUSTOM GBB WORKSHOP】 COLT 1911 Government Model Pre-Series 70 we base deep marking, deep 0.3mm real grip

10% off at BZTactical for orders over £100 with code HALLOWEEN until the end of the weekend. https://www.bztactical.co.uk/ Personally used it to get their ASG MP9 A1 which I reckon is a good deal because it's a low power version. Normally you need to shell out another £50 for a CQB bolt to make these skirmishable.

finally got the wallet out and bought this lot: Tokyo Marui MP7A1 GBB Laylax Nine Ball Power Barrel 145.5mm for Tokyo Marui Gas Blow Back MP7A1 ABBEY PREDATOR GUN GAS 144A Maple Leaf Hop Rubber 50 degree Autobot tomorrow's order tbc ;D

No more airsoft until December it seems, and my parcel from HK just arrived allowing me to bling up my p226 with a suppressor and light
