All, Thanks for the replies. For clarity, I'm not too fussed about having a posh gnu or sniping - just would like something a little different to run alongside the M4 if/when it takes my fancy. Any extra poke would be handy for the couple of larger areas at my woodland site, but not a must by any means. I'll leave the arguments about physics to others... I just enjoy airsofting and getting on with folks. Thanks for the recommendations. Eezer

Had a great day for my second time out today. Got shot in the head a lot so grateful for the helmet. Also glad I was wearing a helmet when the guy behind me tried to light up his mate in front but didn't understand the difference between sightline and bore-line. Happy be able to laugh off a burst of full auto to the back of the head at 2 metres. Lessons learned:- 1. Get a BFG that works. Missed a perfect double kill when the bargain basement one didn't go off.😒 2. Different sites work in different ways. At my last skirmish we went out all morning for 3 consecutive games so this time I was carrying the kitchen sink and after an hour we were back in the safe zone.🙄 3. Learn the locations of all the key places so that when they rattle off a list of names in the briefing you know what the **** they are talking about. 4. If you don't keep moving a sniper will shoot you. Good day, friendly, helpful, well organised, well marshalled. I'll definitely be going back.

You remind me of a certain former president.. With that being said, you can fuck off back in your mom's basement. This is a forum, not Facebook. If you don't like how things work here, if you don't want to wait for people to write down a somewhat detailed answer then this is not the place for you. I (just like everybody else in here) don't have an obligation to answer your questions, even more when you expect them within a minute from the moment you click "post/send/reply". I can reply whenever I want, even if it's 3 am for you, that's how forums have worked since they were first invented (and in case you haven't noticed, it's how this forum works as well) and nobody ever took it personally, unlike you. You clearly don't like me (and a few other members), but guess what, I'm not losing my sleep over a random bag of sadness who doesn't fancy having a nice, calm discussion Will I get a warning from the admin team for not being nice? So be it. Will I get banned for not being nice? So be it. Have a nice day, Skara Out.

Welcome John Its a great hobby for bonding with the kids. All your questions can certainly be answered by searching the forum and doing plenty of reading 👍

WE mp5k PDW, 106mm crazy jet barrel, ML mr.hop, osprey single point sling, genuine ARMS claw mount and a vortex strike fire 2. Absolutely love it and cant wait to see how it performs with the new upgrades

Now I do try to be as kind as possible when posting up in Mack’s (more often than not its naivety or ignorance that’s caused the arrival in Mack’s hall of ‘fame’ ?) but this guy is absolutely taking the piss ! What has he been sniffing ????😳 asking 400 notes for a package that’ll barely set you back 200’ish new ! 🤦‍♂️

I’ve finally managed to get a PSG1 sight on my PSG1 strangely enough. Bloody hard going trying to find one and along the way I now own a TM PSG1 ffs. Haha 😂

Hi @Johnyboy1976! 👋 Welcome to the forum, full of advice and like minded players! 🔫🤪👍 Good luck getting started, hopefully have a great time, which site and let us know how it goes? 🤔 Thanks for the mention @Shamal! 🔫😎👍 💷GAMBLE💷

Hi @Johnyboy1976welcome to the madhouse 👋All of life's throwbacks,reprobates and ner' do wells can be found lurking in these hallowed pages. Oh and a few good ones to keep us all on track lol. You have made a good choice and I'm sure you and your son will enjoy every minute(well almost every minute)💥😉 Check out @GAMBLEon the tube for info and fun👍 Regards

& You always seem to be one of the "dance" partners 😏

Quite a generic point but will make it anyway. If you're used to shorter guns be careful and conscious of the added length of the sig in the first few games. Can be very annoying to smack your new AEG against a tree/doorway/etc. on the first day you are running it.

eh, i've fallen out with people for dumber stuff

Oh, believe me mate; at the same festival I bought my WARQ helmet with full face protection and I only wear tac-glasses with a facemask from then on. Doesn't justify shooting me in the face, when he had my whole body at his disposal. Could've shot me anywhere, including my boonie hat, that I had on at the time. I was in a combination of shock, disbelief and nerve pain, so by the time I realised what happened that dude was gone without a word. Disgraceful little $%^&. If you make any mistake, own it, own its consequences. You hurt someone — you apologise and make amends.

Honestly why can’t people just agree to disagree. I’m not singling you out and I respect if you have a different opinion but this is just going around in circles. All that’s going to happen here is people are going to fall out over barrel lengths. Really?

Same energy output? Same hop pressure applied? Same RPM imparted to the bb from rubbing against the rubber? Mate, seriously. Let's assume those two guns have the exact same gearbox inside, essentially the firehawk will come out at a much lower energy output due to the shorter barrel, which automatically voids your example again, can't compare a Golf with a Panda, two different cars even though they both have 4 wheels made of rubbery material and an engine. Did you chrono both guns? were they within 5/10 fps from each other? if not, guess what, your example is wrong Well yes, some of us do contribute to society instead of trying to be clever on forums

Clean up and repair the handguard, rewire to deans. other than that im very happy with the current performance. im picking up a spare set of gears and a gearbox casing for it. but I dont really intend to mess with it.

Welcome! Don't worry about going on your own. It just means less distractions so you can focus on whats going on and being said. You'll soon be talking to people around you anyway. All the info you need is in the forum. Just do some searching and a lot of reading 😉

Sorry I’m new and didn’t realise. I will post this there instead.

Welcome .

So expensive that Airsoft Mike will actually need to pay for it.

Looks like a ball-ache. I would tighten by hand and the use a drift/Flat punch on the lugs to tap it tight - assuming it's not made of cheese. Not ideal, but G&G don't have any tool for this rail on their website. Other options: - email G&G customer support and ask their advice - there might be a real steel tool that they use. - Buy a tube that's about the same width as the nut, and cut notches into it to create something akin to this: -Find someone who's got a 3d printer that can create a tool for you

Psst.....what were your answers? I don't think I got any right 😳 Might have to resit it! 😉

The only other options would be the sector sitting way too high so it only catches on a minimal portion of the rack, or the piston guides being chewed to all fuck so when the sector grabs it, it is lifted. But the latter seems unlikely as from the video the piston body seems intact

Thanks for the welcome 😀 Cant wait to get started - just need to buy the boy a few little bits unless i can procure them through work . Luckily i have more combats / sets of webbing than you can shake a stick at so don’t need to fork out on any of that.

I just wanna look cool and I think Russian kit is the coolest IMO. So yeah blyatsoft

Done!

First batch of PG photos got 2 nice ones of me

Done mate

Completed.

Ditto 👍

if you feel like you need to take a break that's fine, but might as well leave the door open? had debates on here with folks about issues that i care about a hell of a lot more than this, real core-issue disagreement stuff, then you just move on, no point wasting your energy holding grudges on the internet.

Try another forum fella but brush up on your people skills eh? 👍

@shadowfacex Consider that Questionnaire completed

The argument is that a bb gets his range mostly from the energy it's being pushed at and the RPM given by rubbing against the hop rubber's surface (lift). To counter those two forces Mother Nature gave us gravity (counters lift) and air resistance (which counters the bb's energy and includes factors like temperature, wind, humidity for the sake of keeping it simple). Tell me where barrel length sits in this equation

Well in my case it's not savings of a few quid. The CYMA Platinum 97b at patrolbase is £100+ more expensive, isn't the 'upgraded version', and isn't even in stock.

Because G&G don't produce a Raider with a 368mm inner barrel. I was enjoying being pedantic. I would like to know the chronograph readings for both guns. You own a chronograph don't you? I'm sure someone with your depth of wisdom and experience would have one in their kit bag... Actually, I don't care. Nothing we say will ever convince you.

Sorry mate, I have an actual job so I can't spend my whole life on forums arguing about age old topics like barrel length. It's physics, a 1J bb coming out of a 100mm barrel will have the same properties of a 1J bb coming out of a 1 metre barrel. Given the same energy output, given the same pressure applied to the hop rubber, given the same hop rubber, two bbs fired from different barrels will have the same range and consistency. Did you make sure that both the CM16 and FireHawk had the same charateristics? Same muzzle energy? same hop up chambers, rubbers and barrel diametre and finish? Same bb weight? Same amount of pressure from the hop arm? If not, ding dong your example is wrong It's like comparing a VW Golf with a Fiat Panda.

Mk23 and its 133mm barrel says hello

Hey! I've never had a mention. ☹😉

Hi, ALL! 👋 Manage this week to sort out my first gameplay footage from last Sunday, took a while, but worth it! 🔫😆👍 Doing the best with what I have, enjoy it for what it is. 🔫😎👍 💷GAMBLE💷

Some custom backpacks to get all my kit to and from, as well as during larger milsim ops as a medic. Slim son of a gun is for the medical stuff and the fatty is for everything else. Clip onto each other to make one unit when dont need just one or the other. Real neat.

Or a "dumb fucking twatish child of a man" as the wife put it.

Sounds like you need some full face protection.

Sopley - well before a certain retailer/forum took over.

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.

picked up an f-1 skeletonized receiver with trigger pack for dirt cheap. 3D printed an MWS barrel and barrel nut for the spare 250mm stock barrel. designed my own handguard. angry gun hopup and adjuster. ML packing. OEM bcg and charging handle from impulse 101. sub $300 build!
