Instead of imposing a limit on all sites, would it not be easier to impose a limit on Siggi and KM? Everyone agree on 0?4 points

Did this thread just go full circle? For anyone first joining the thread here, no the initial topic wasn’t talked about for 9 pages. What was discussed? Gun laws, stupid people, the phrase ‘checks and balances’ appeared a lot, various hand to hand weapons (some conventional, some less so), charts and graphs... and I’m pretty sure a UKARA question some how snuck in there.4 points

New Product Promo Alert - Heard Yo Like Velcro Dawg
Jedi_Master and 2 others reacted to TheFull9 for a topic
Edit to add - I did clear this post with the admin team ahead of time. Left is before, right is after, centre is the actual product (a prototype anyway, the production TS is a little more vivid). Many years ago I attached a patch to a Crye G3 shirt and didn't like the lack of security with the split velcro, I also didn't like the fact that the AC and G3 lines have never featured pattern matched loop. After a while I started getting custom tactical sewing guys in the US to just sew hook on the back of camo loop in different MC patterns, US Woodland, Desert Night etc to both bridge those gaps and add camo to my Crye shirts and replicas from Roman Kurmaz. Fast forward to 2019 I heard of a company able to print loop almost as easily as using an inkjet at home and in similarly small quantities, whereas getting real camo velcro loop made usually requires spending in the region of tens of thousands on ordering multiple thousand yard rolls. Then if you only have raw loop you've got to find a trustworthy tailor who knows and understands uniforms, wait in their inevitably long queue, pay a reasonable sum for their time and skill and hope the damn post office doesn't lose your rare uniform pieces somewhere along the way; I went through all of the above many times. Yesterday, after a lengthy process, my Camo Plates were finally made available and are now in stock and ready to buy in a range of cool camos, most of which have previously been unavailable in velcro form. They come in 2x4" and 4x4" versions shown above which cover the arm pocket areas on a Crye shirt (or replica), with the 4" also perfectly fitting on a Spiritus half flap. There is also a 4x8" (below) version that entirely covers the front of a Spiritus chassis/replica thereof or similar small chest rig with the same size loop field on the front. Whether you own something like a Crye G3 shirt that has plain loop and you want to add camo, or you simply want to change the camo loop on a given product for a different pattern that you like (works particularly well on Spiritus chassis), these are cheap and take, ooh.. roughly 1 whole second to apply with zero permanent modifications to your kit. Unfortunately, at the moment shipping from Indonesia (where my retailer Vajra Concepts is based) is not very cheap when using UK addresses due to COVID and the cost of the product ratio to the cost of shipping is far from ideal, but that is what we're stuck with at the moment. In the event I can secure retailers in the UK/US I'll certainly endeavour to, though that may be a tricky feat but it's what I'm striving for. For links to purchase and further reading please click here and do ask any questions in the thread, cheers guys. https://thefull9.net/camoplates/3 points -

all in and now back together working a charm commened at same time poretty much no modding was necaserry i did have to reshim and ad an extra shim to the bottom of the sector as it was touching the sensor only issue i have ran into is my mech safety with the new trigger the cut out where it latchs is deeper than the standard m4 one so the safety slips but tbh not to fussed on that one i can live with that lol2 points -
High ROF Problems Ssg Build
Sitting Duck and one other reacted to Skara for a topic
SSG at that RPS on full teeth? Dayum son, that's impressive but expect some fireworks soon inside the gearbox. I'd seriously look at shortening the barrel, it's not just a matter of volume but also the amount of air behind each bb, Luke @negative airsoft did a video using his own physics a while ago in which explains why super high ROF builds need short barrels. Or use a 7.4, 23 RPS is okay and you'll have better performance than 95% of the AEGs on the field while putting less stress on the mechanical parts Still, I would recommend knocking off a couple of teeth from the sector gear, so in case you are dead set on 11.1 memes you don't risk stripping everything.2 points -

Milsim Training
padraigthesniper reacted to Wolf20142 for a topic
Hi guys. I was just looking to see how many of the milsim crowd, or other airsofters, would be interested in tactical training from ex SF personnel1 point -
IMI also do some nice hard holsters, the molle mount only needs 3 molle row width compared to the 4 row width that serpa molle mounts need, plus the holster angle is way more adjustable than a serpas.1 point

I’ve recently picked up one of those warrior ones. There’s a locking mechanism with a thumb paddle that locks pretty securely. There are a couple of differently shaped inserts included to match the shape of the pistol’s trigger guard. I’ve tried jumping up and down with a ‘capa in place and haven’t caught it out yet.1 point

Personally I always found the clone serpas very good when I ran a 226. Yes lights are a good way to light yourself and others up if you use them like a tool . As long as you have something searching for objectives and the like in dark game areas is much easier.1 point

Ah ok cool. And that will fit a 226? - move fast - quick load (I don’t use a dump pouch, I shove the empties down the front of my shirt) and quick draw - carry enough rounds to start a small coup - look like a fucking gangster 🤣1 point

For the pistol, get a serpa (or similar clone), generic cloth holsters have a nasty habit of touching the mag release, proving expensive if no one hands the mag in. Hard shell holsters will never do that thankfully, also if molle mount is what your used to, then stick with it for Airsoft, muscle memory is a good skill & definite leveller in most situations. If you get another pistol, just get another holster, the clones are cheap as chips but actually generally good quality & more than up to the job of fortnightly (?) use.1 point

Pistol Mags and Holster Problem....
DRay reacted to concretesnail for a topic
Have a look at the warrior assault holster. It's universal hold type and can be sized for most pistols, it molle mounts so could go on the front. I'd look at the warrior pistol mag pouches too. I have run both fornyears and theybhave been great, built restful tough and hold mags really well (I've never lost one despite never closing them). If you don't fancy having them on your front you could also look for a molle belt panel that you slide over any belt. I'm sure you can find the on hueys and tactical kit uk1 point -
Scopecam poor quality and poorer picture.Not used the 4K so it could be better.I use an SJ cam much better picture and more adjustable.I did a comparisson on here somewhere.I found the scopeacam really dissapointing,I was so suprised at the poor quality I e-mailed the manufacturer to make sure it wasn't a fake,it wasn't.1 point

Aye, this is what many Europeans retailers need to do and I expect HMRC have a lot of work to do to issue such numbers etc. It will take time and we all just have to be patient. Although it’s frustrating when you want your bits now. Even though we won’t be playing for months yet.1 point

What Are People Doing for UKARA Nowadays?
Cr0-Magnon reacted to rj1986 for a topic
Nope, my last Ukara was from a site that closed down a while ago. Tried it with JDAirsoft over Xmas for a pistol and it was computer says no. My logic has always been the more you spend, the less likely you need Ukara. Like £20 springer = 100% need ukara. £800 Silverback HTI with £400 worth of extra's = legit.1 point -

padraigthesniper reacted to jsmithski for a topic
Anyway. 1j limit is perfect for CQB, I don’t mind being shot on full auto with that. For milsims and outdoor skirmishes, I think it would kill the joy. I got a sniper that shoots over 4J and is within the limits for a BASR where I play. What’s the point of having a bolt action rifle and be outgunned by every AEG or gbbr? One limit to rule them all, that’s silly. PS. If only one guy shot/killed someone through all these years using a BP gun then it is ok to say that more ppl gets killed in bar bare hand fights. Banning alcohol would make more sense.1 point -
Aye, as long as you can do your job, remember to read the timings sheet and don’t skip CDT’s you’re all good haha.1 point

Here's another photo of my URGI build with the aforementioned Magpul SL-K stock! IMO it's superb and suits the smaller 10.3" build with its compact low drag design much better than the CTR. I'd like to compare it with the SL though and see how fits in the middle? Great write up about the SL and size comparison between all three here. P.S you can add a QD sling point by fitting a Magpul M-Lok QD point through the sling loop slot, granted its not ambi, but you can't have it all. 👍 https://thereptilehouseblog.com/2021/01/17/review-magpul-moe-sl-stock-review/ As for my MRE I've fitted some obligatory KAC style rail covers which just suit the rail perfectly! At the same time I also installed a Wiitech KAC style trigger guard to compliment the test of the Knight's goodies. Picked up a Vortex Strikefire 2, but then a day later a friend of a friend contacted me regarding a genuine Eotech 551 something I've been looking for to no avail... A very good price for a rare albeit used holographic sight but its the perfect cherry for this MRE cake! 😂 Updates to follow of course and there's still a few more bits to get, but I'm really pleased with it's progress I just want to get out and bloody use it!1 point

To all the people who have the guts to call themselves "snipers".... If you can't cope with 1J guns, then you've picked the wrong role. Range is actually at the very bottom in a sniper's priority list. With that being said, the group is ran by the hunteering guys, who are KM but dumber. Basically a huge marketing operation for Lee Wade's girlfriend so that she can sell the god awful leaves she makes, also the super useless quest of hitting a 3x3m tarp at 120m while arcing the gun so much it basically becomes a fucking artillery piece. All this while autistically screaming "pushing the limit of airsoft sniping" all over the place. And obviously trying to bash KM and his crowd of equally brain damaged chairsofters.. I thought the Italian airsoft community was bad but you guys are outstanding 😂😂 Meanwhile there is third, less known sniper community, Sniperworks, who are actively trying to improve the sniper game by giving away actual useful information and doing live streams where theydiscuss all things tactics/teching/camouflage with those who are good at them.1 point

My family live in Missouri, my baby sister legally bought a .357 magnum, to replace her old gun which was stolen in a burglary, she was 20 & not legally allowed to buy a six pack of beer, that's some twisted logic right there. As for the "checks" they do, it's harder to get a contract mobile phone in the UK than it is to legally buy a firearm in the USA. Any lunatic that doesn't have a criminal record can get one. Madness 😳1 point

Wholeheartedly disagree with you there mate. Having a RIF is great fun, it looks cool and you can shoot your mates with it. You can’t do that with a real firearm. There is a reason why things like Sandy Hook don’t happen in this country, and it’s because any old knobhead can’t run round with a gun they bought at an indoor market with no checks or license or registration process.1 point

How fucking retarded do you have to be to get involved in this shit? KM is a tool and needs to just fuck off but all these clowns on FB are just drawing attention to him. They all just need to grow the fuck up and mind their own business before they get airsoft fucking banned. This is what I refer to as a sort your fucking life out situation which is literally the only advice that should be offered to these morons. sorry for all the f-bombs but this shit really winds me up. Guns, bullets, grenades, airsoft rifles etc are just inanimate objects its the retards that pick them up or post stupid videos of themselves doing stupid shit who are the real danger.1 point

Indoor CQB Gun's N' Gear
Cr0-Magnon reacted to L3wisD for a topic
Also, in order to look like a top quality CQB player. Here's a ProTip: Have a standalone torch. Weapon mounted lights can put you at a disadvantage for a few reasons. Mostly because it gives the other team something to aim at, thinking there's a human next to it, where's a standalone torch could be held well away from the body, and at an odd angle to keep you safe from hits. Plus you can stack up on the door and hold the torch in the top corner, blinding the other team and covering your team mates who can safely pop out and shoot past the glare.1 point -

And I’m just gonna wade in here... Watched a few KM videos and thought “this guy has got pretending to be a bush down to an artform” Watched a few more and realised “this guy’s got a attitude problem” If he’s not shouting at marshalls in the states he’s giving someone grief elsewhere. Bullied at school? of this whole kicked debacle I actually feel a bit sorry for him. Firstly, it’s his income and these are difficult times. Secondly, he strikes me as being a bit pathetic as a bloke and he clearly needs the Mustang persona to get through his day to day. I suspect if you called him a c£&@ to his face he’d carry that around for a long, long time instead of brush it off like a proper fella should Ambivalence embodied1 point
