I got banned from UKAC for making a joke about a guys Nazi SS loadout. Apparently saying it was: "The final solution to hit taking" was enough for an instant ban lol

The issue that Labour pledged/promised a referendum on the European Constituion which later became the Lisbon Treaty - basically the Constitution in a new cover pg 84 of Labour's 2005 manifesto clearly stated they would put it to the people (remember Labour's BS that their manifesto is a contract with the people) without going into Ireland holding a referendum on Nice & Lisbon then asking the people to vote again when they first rejected both of them Blair KNEW what was coming and stepped down in July 2007 where the unchallenged Brown was appointed (without any challengers) as PM who later that year signed the Lisbon 4 hours after most leaders & media had left and then flat out refused a referendum that was promised in their own manifesto Most of Labour MP's voted to refuse holding a referendum LibDem's stuck their heads in the sand - though 13 voted in favour of holding one (see Nick Clegg's referendum on Europe leaflet) Even the 6 x SNP MP's backed a referendum (how times change) Conservatives didn't have the votes/support (even if all the LibDem's sided with them instead of abstaining) So Labour ratified the Treaty of Lisbon without holding a referendum as in their 2005 manifesto/contract with the people Politicians - they're all lying hypercritical cnuts at the end of the day NB - this is not to derail this thread as such (what has happened has happened) more to provide a little history on some the crap that lead us to where we are now I don't wish to start up or continue Brexit stuff about a referendum blah x3 but just some of what took place that perhaps lead to the referendum being held peace

Interesting. So you are implying Democracy is a bad thing because you didn't get the outcome you wanted? I don't remember the late '90s/early '00's as halcyon times. Two costly wars, huge public spending, financial collapse and a cute note left in Whitehall - 'there's no money left'. But hey, that's all OK! Labour wouldn't have given us a referendum. I won't comment further on this, consider the above rhetorical - this thread should remain as useful information for post-Brexit buying and not politics, but previous comments whinging about the outcome of two Democratic voting processes deserve a little push-back. TTFN... 😘

As people have mentioned all this vitriol currently going around is just polarising society. Rather than calling each other facists and commies why don’t people work together to come up with ways of improving it?

In case you cant tell. I rather like revolvers. The holsters were made by me. The other revolvers will be getting them as well.

Bollox you need to apologize ! If people can’t have a round of good old political fisticuffs without turning it in to a handbag swinging contest not your fault ! 🤣 If Someone did I'm sure they’ve surrendered by now ‘just Incase’ 😉 Nah definitely Poland 😁

Name the Airsoft Team that provided ASCUK with hours of amusing Photoshopage.

Hypnosis...that's a sweet looking setup. I'd keep the rail, looks pretty dang good. Oh..i've just bought a MTW as well..and a few other things... MTW Carbine + Phoenix Hop + spare feed tube & retention clip (In case I break them when maybe changing the rubber/bucking) Shark 48cl tank with Storm regulator Wolverine Filtered grip with Amped wide bore 42" line. 6 Mags 7ltr Scuba tank with fill line. Quite expensive...but hopefully worth it. Was thinking about the Forged Milspec, but put off by the single fire only option with it.

Well, I have a rifle clamp (home made), a laser tape measure, a 20m range, a six g nub, a standard nub, a standard 250mm barrel, a modify tan, standard TM, ml Autobot 60°, ml Mr hop rubber, some Geoff's 0.30g bb's and some spare time... ... Cue the music.

Indeed it was. Got to hand it to him, it takes skill and perseverance to get banned by every single airsoft forum. I believe he started his own as a result and it all went a bit L Ron Hubbard..

The problem with Airsoft Facebook groups is that they get swamped with "show us your M4 pictures" "is Taiwangun any good" and the perennial classic of asking for opinions on guns after they have bought them instead of before, or how to upgrade them when they have never even skirmished them. I would however miss the pictures of loadouts in slippers because mum doesn't allow boots in the house, and the bad selfies in the bathroom mirror with pants drying on the radiator in the background.

I'm glad that the voice of the people(the electorate)were given the option of a referendum and that voice was heard and listened to...eventually! Isn't that democracy? Government for the people,by the people. Power to the people. 🙂👍 Regards

Following on from the ZuckerPurge, I thought it may be interesting to see who remembers some of the more random events of forum life in the Noughties... Question 1 - which "Airsoft Saviour" emerged in 2003 offering Equilibrium inspired M92's and Airsoft ready RAP4 converted RIF's. Some of us met this person, and managed to get something for our original orders that were never delivered. Who was it?

For what it’s worth I don’t think you’re a facist. Seems to be a term bounded about without people knowing what it means. Facism is different to National Socialism which is different from socialism. However the differences aren’t big. We enjoy democracy and people have the right to voice opinions even if we don’t like them. When people get hurt that’s where we to stop and take a look at ourselves and think we all live on the same tiny planet in a universe that is massive. Let’s all be friends and just shoot each other with 6mm balls of biodegradable plastic 😊

Yeah I was there when it came down and strangely enough that night there was no politics. The people where all happy and there was no facists or communists just Germans. Politicians build walls not the people.

Saucers of milk all round lol Regards

Just putting it out there: Jeremy Corbyn is a twat, was only voted in by his peers for a dare, and was responsible solely for the demise of the Labour Party xxx

Me being fascist and playing with weapons instead of sortin the missus out!

eh, gotta have some light bed-time reading now and again. you mean east germany?

I thought that was invading Poland ? 😳

you meaning the one guy who actually managed to get banned from this place i take it? i'm trying to dig up them threads i was talking about just for a laugh edit: found it: come to think of it i think the dumpster fire saved my ass because apparently that was back when i still thought pro-wins were good in my defence i was getting very good results from mine at the time so maybe i just got lucky. edit 2: found the other one

Yeah you can’t educate pork innit.

This is all in 'latest news' when in fact it's old news. Jus sayin' is all 😉🙂 Regards

Lozart. You know the nazi party started off as socialists right? Like our socialist party that demands you vote for labour right? Because they are backed by labour unions right? And you know that is fringe left that DEMAND we give minority fringe factions more rights than the average joe who just wants to go to work pay their mortgage and have some fun right? You know that Jeremy Corbyn is anti semite and has supported multiple terrorist organisations right?

been a few rows i remember, like @ImTriggerHappy versus a guy who swore the S-hop was the best thing ever, or @Skara trying to talk sense into Novritch's biggest fan.

i think it's just on finnish training grounds rather than a training exercise. i'd be more worried about getting lynched for showing up in digiflora

🤐

Ooh, did he have a PHD from MIT in Wound Ballistics?

How do u know it’s not your thing if you have never fired it? anyway it’s worth a fiver but I will give you £200

Did someone mention the French? 😂

Hamster: well well whats going on in here Thread: politics n shit Hamster:

You know that's a contradiction in terms, right? You can't be a fascist if you're left-wing.

not sure i wanna risk it for 2021, but maybe 2022 is the year

Got it! Install of the Co2 stock was straight forward enough apart from having to go out and get a 6mm spanner. Trickiest part was setting up the right length for the Co2 bulbs. Dialled in the power at a steady 320 fps and all seems good. Got nowhere to setup the hop as yet but I can live with that for now. Next is question is do I change the rail or not...

This is what pisses me off, they ban you and there’s seemingly no fact finding or any kind of attempt to figure out what’s gone on, poxy algorithms I guess!

Oh i LOVE mine. I wasnt expecting it, after the first (extremely loud) shot I said I didnt like it, after running around for 20 mins with it in game I was shocked. The range was great, response perfect and I got loads of comments about it too. I was VERY impressed. I can see myself using it in games a LOT, not bad considering I basically bought it as a cheap back up gun

To be fair we haven't had an actual left wing or (it can be argued) centrist government since 1979, I think it's safe to say that the economic and foreign policy issues we have had in the past 10 years couldn't be blamed on the left. Not that I want to spin anything positive on New Labour, but the economic issues and "The note" came after the worldwide stock market crash that we had very little to do with in the first place. If the Conservatives were in charge at the time, the exact same thing would have happened as New Labour were more Tory lite then actual Labour in terms of economic policy. I imagine our current government will blame our economic woes on Covid in the same manner. In the past 30 years we've only had business comes first; faux Neo Liberalist economically centre right or right wing governments. As a reluctant Remainer (As in I think the EU is corrupt, but I voted remain because as a country we have consistently voted in even more corrupt governments for the past 30 years and are likely to continue to), I think its disingenuous to hypothesise as to what another party would have done in any given situation. Sadly political discourse has descended into a supporting football team mentality. Shouting down from both sides on subjects that you might even agree with the opposition on, just because it is coming from "them". Which is of course what the ruling "elite" want us to do, let the voters blame and fight each other on any and all issues. Anyone trying to change that status quo will get completely rinsed by the papers (and in recent times yes I do mean JC) Brexit will play out in the next few months or years, conclude where the land lies and then see if it was really the golden goose that was promised, if not and there is a political will, we could always re-join.

Fair point and I’m no fan of labour (nor conservatism) Democracy - yes, and the result was to invoke article 50 and leave. I didn’t get the result that I wanted, the majority did The real problem behind the referendum question wasn’t that it was an offer of democracy but it was a gamble by Cameron, and when it backfired he promptly quit A problem with the outcome that the majority voted for is that nobody knew what Brexit they were getting. Individually voters knew what Brexit they were voting for or against, collectively all they voted for was to invoke article 50. The politicians have produced the type of Brexit that has occurred

I can't remember who it was but somebody on here posted up about how much he hated seeing feet in photographs. I guess one mans' fetish is another mans' poison. Lol 👍👟👟 Regards

You missed out all the how do I buy a gun without a UKARA?

I would be interested to hear how a Labour Government would have done any better... 😉

I've had 3 maybe 4 orders from X-Fire in Japan last year arrive no problems. No customs, no charges, 1 week turn around. The most recent order, is 2 weeks and counting, got stopped at customs and I've paid £17 import fee (on an order total of £44). How on earth did the government manage to fudge this up so very badly?

I'm challenging the 'London' on a couple of points; it is outside the M25, the nearest busses are not recognised by TFL and therefore oyster payment. I will add this to the reopening list as it looks interesting even if it does mean a 5:30am journey start time. As Master Windu would say 'i grant you the title of airsoft site. You have earned that. Tfl does not give you the rank of London'

Welcome! The book of faces doesn't like the sales posts. But that is ok as we have a whole thread dedicated to keep the classifieds honest. Enjoy and add your thoughts

Social Media like FaceBook etc... have purged so much stuff that they have ran out of things to complain about So much so, with each stage of purging they have less & less to be fully triggered about, so they have only the very very very slightly off-subject thinkers outside of the box left Suffice to say, just starting to question the FB belief or narrative has resulted in restrictions so much so it is just one big echo chamber & even then the people within that chamber are starting to question at times, where has those hateful opposition users gone ??? (not hateful at all, just with a different opinion to some others that you perceive as hate when in reality, the real vitriol is coming from their side towards others in fact) Nowadays - you don't even get the rows as the echo chamber grew & grew from the purges No longer on FB for nearly 2 years, as they demanded I upload photo, more info, drivers license to prove my identity - FUCK OFF, so I get dox by nutters, my info sold/hacked - yeah bollox miss checking in on some friends & certain pages like AK2M4, but fuck FaceBook etc...

Now back to the important experts on Facebook coz they all know about RHOPs and SHOPs and Toilet Hops and well the F-AllHOPs. Oh and Covid too. 😂

That's cheating, you can't say that. Will Greenwood will accept a friend request from anyone! It was quite nice to see lots of folks on Facebook groups recommend this place as a safe haven / alternative.

And don’t forget having F-all in stock as well as stupid prices ? 🤦‍♂️ BUT to be fair my self (and I’m very confident I can say this)and all my airsoft amigos Could count on less than one finger how many times we’ve bought or sold 2nd hand goods outside the uk ?

Different engraver found, waiting for quote. Just incase anyone was having dificulty sleeping - here's what a £130 Cyma needed to be a DMR. Gearbox casing is fine with no obvious defects, more for the ceremony than anything I've polished the rails with Mothers Aluminum polish. Who knows if it makes any difference but it makes me THINK the piston cycles better. Stock cylinder head was also fine so I've kept that and the stock cylinder in place. Unfortunately, the airseal was non-existant, I've kept the Cyma piston but changed out the piston head for a ported aluminum jobbie I had laying around. The stock nozzle wasn't great, so I splashed out on a Prometheus which seals and feeds. ASG M125 spring with a bearing spring guide coupled with a Modify 6.03 barrel if giving the desired FPS. There was no reason to change out the gearset but a saw a deal on some standard ratio Prometheus V7 gears that I couldn't resist... Quick shim and that's all happy. Stock bushings are fine. If you remove the selctor bar from the V7 gearbox, the cut off lever cannot be lifted. This gives a clean and reversible semi only lock. The Cyma motor wasn't great so I switched that out for an ASG Infinity 30,000. The ASG motors are a bit on the big side so a fair bit of filing had to happen to allow for proper motor height adjustment. Cabling was switched out for some decent gauge stuff and a Gate trigger cable was put in place. Currently there's a NanoHard in the stock set to no active-brake and 7.4V battery protection. Active brake was making the spring go TWANG bizarrely, but the gun doesn't require AB on a 7.4 and the trigger response is spot on. Finally, the Cyma Hop unit was not a great casting and actually asymetrical. I got a TM unit from FireSupport and went with the obligatory ML Macaron/Omega nub route. Fun project internally, but as usual I've spent more than the base gun on UpGrAdEs! I still can't hit anything, but I certainly cant blame the M14
