Yes right! cunt in everywhere. Bloody hell..

Why? A lot of guys are buying from overseas. Why wouldn't we send overseas so long as postage is paid.🤔 Just askin'👍 Regards

the Afghan army didn't really fold. You can't look at them as a regular western style army. They are basically a bunch of guys controlled by various warloards. These warlords have been around for a long time for a simple reason. they pick the side that is going to win and swap sides to whatever one that is. Right now that's the taliban but if Massoud's son manages to gather support up North then it might be a different story in 12 months time. Remember that the Afghan people have had a bit of more stable life within the bigger cities for the last 20 years so if the taliban start to behave like they did 20 years ago then the Afghans will be routing for Massoud's son. If the same warlords start to see a shift in power then they will barter a position in the new northern alliances government and switch sides again. I visited about 50 locations in Afghan over 6 years and the love for the deceased massoud was a bit like the british love for the Queen. It would be a very differnet country today if he hadn't been assassianted the day before the 9/11 attacks. As for the Afghan army well I've seen them hit targets at 1200m with a dragonov which is supposed to only be good out to 700, at -22C they are running about in sandels with a pair of socks on and generally not give 2 F's when someone is shooting at them. True, some of them are idiots but then show me an Army that doesn't have its share of idiots. Afghan is always going to be a crazy place. For the last 20 years the Russian's, Chinese and Pakistani's have had a large Western force within striking range of their borders and probably did as much as possible to undermine the Western army. Now that this is gone then the Russians will be worried about the Southern Russian states being influenced by the Taliban, the Pakistani's will be terrified that the Pashtun (the taliban are mostly Pashtun) population that is spread from Afghanistan to Pakistan and doesn't recognise the official border will cause problems in the North of the country and lastly the Chinese will be eyeing up Afghan for 2 reasons. 1 being it's full of resources that only the Chinese have the man-power to shift from Afghan to China and 2nd they will be a bit twitchy because they haven't got the best press when it comes to dealing with muslims. If Afghan is at peace in 5 years time I'm eat my kevlar hat. on a more personnal note, it's stange seeing the runway all over the TV as I lived in a metal ISO container for quite a long time on the edge of that runway. Right now 2 of my mates are sitting there and still in 2 minds about jumping on the next available Herc. The only reason I'm not calling them idiots is because I'm wondering how many Peq 15s, PVS 14's and ACOG's they can jam in a bag for me before getting on the next flight

Not speedsoft....honestly! I've been modelling a real steel B&T Visor/Gas Mask Stock for a G36 using pictures as a reference. Not sure if I'll actually make this one (although it's dimensionally accurate to TM spec guns), but it's been fun to model nonetheless. RS references:

Glad to see your mastery of English is almost perfect, well the important words anyway 🤣 👍

Has been entertaining but trashed this thread! 😂

Mate you missed all the best bits because @Jedi_Master the miserable fucker deleted it😜

Me three ! I do love a bit of TM when I wanna shoot my white load over someone ! 🥴 Was recommended to to partake of this thread simply for this mongtard as I don’t have an interest in gas rifles (so I was missing the party ) glad I did now , on a scale of “la la la I’m not listening !” To “it’s my ball so if you won’t let me score a goal I’m taking it home !” He’s definitely a solid “because my mummy said you must so there !” 🤦‍♂️ 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Haha. You primadonner 😉

I'm happy enough with the SA-02 Edge that I got this year. Decent enough alloy externals, a good hop unit, nice wiring, the internals of the gearbox seem fine without the rough finish reported in the previous iteration. The air seal wasn't perfect, but good enough. The quick change spring is actually fairly quick, you go in up the buffer tube with no need to take the gearbox out. Wired to Deans, which is always nice. Just a basic X-ASR mosfet, but that gives the potential to swap in a Warfet for trick shots. The stock motor isn't amazing, but then what is? I didn't try it with the stock barrel, but it's heavy brass and I couldn't see any obvious issues with it. The worst part was the moulding and security of the plastic M933 style Fudd handguard, but that won't be an issue for you.

Not made as such, but sprayed my old mtb Camelbak to use at airsoft rather then buying a new camo hydro pouch

This is my Viper Tech 2021 production KAC SR-16E3 Mod 1 GBBR. 6061 T6 receiver, produced with URX 3 handguard. Larue Tactical rail clips, Hogue ar15 pistol grip Installed the KAC handguard cover. A mount from Geissele arrived at my house today and I installed my LPVO.

This doesn't come in to it. If the seller has agreed to, then the earnest is on them.

afaik there's no rules about international folk here, or buying/selling internationally, you're perfectly fine to join up, enquire and buy things in the classifieds. it's purely down to the individuals, and whilst it's not often written (because most of our users are from the uk anyway) it's a safe assumption that people don't want to sell/post international. yes it's prejudice, but sadly that's just human nature, i know i personally wouldn't want to sell anything outside the uk but rest assured i'd make that clear the moment i knew where i'd have to be sending something and refund any money paid. i thought it was practically mandatory that curse words are amongst the first learned in any language?

Let me guess “taken out of context” ? AND we’ll make a politician out of you yet ? 😉

did you actually send them money or did they just agree to a sale then pull out? sounds like you're not based in the uk? if so it's possible the seller wasn't willing to post internationally due to the cost/risk, however a legitimate seller would have made this clear and refunded if you'd paid them. however if you paid them and they haven't sent it then that's a scam and i'm sure the mod team would be interested in further information. if you paid via paypal using the goods and services option then you should be thinking about opening a dispute on there as that's the best chance of getting your money back. if you used paypal friends & family or something else like bank transfer then i'm afraid the options are much less fruitful. Needless to say using paypal goods & services for secondhand transactions is strongly recommended for the protection it provides.

Just airsoft fella, just airsoft. But thank you, I can assure you my wife would have me in front of our GP if I felt like this with anything else.

If you heat those stocks you may be able to bend them straight. Really careless of somebody to bend three! One I could understand. Lol 😉 Regards

@Rogerborg I'm sure there'll be some younger members here wondering what the fuck we're on about!

Hello! After about a 10 year break in playing airsoft I've come back to it this year. Having a great time sorting out my kit and loadout and finding places around my area (Surrey/Hampshire) to play. A lot has changed in 10 years, firstly airsoft seems to have got MASSIVE, and also the law has changed. So although I have an old TM AEG, I'm currently getting in my 2 months of games so I can get a TM M4 MWS (after many many hours lost to research online and talking to people!) I've been going to games on my own, and have a good view of how things work to a newbie-not-newbie... some good, and some not so good. Will share in other threads! The more I play the more I think I'm heading in the millsim sort of direction, I think, so lets see what happens! Good to be here and looking forwards to getting stuck in! Cheers, Stucks.

I hope it’s biodegradable 😂😂😂

Yep bang on. Same thing happened in Iraq. All this expensive kit, ISIS turn up with a technical and an AK and they run for the hills. There are a LOT of parallels with what happened in Iraq with ISIS actually. If you look at the history of Counter Insurgency Warfare since the Second World War, the only ones we can consider to have won out of all of them is Malaya but that was different as it was two ethnic groups striving for independence from each other not us (Malays v Indonesia) Every other single COIN war we have fought we lost. Vietnam, the various proxy wars in Angola and Congo, Rhodesia, Northern Ireland (yes a loss as the IRA were not defeated and have not gone away), Afghanistan and Iraq. We cannot do COIN warfare as we lack the political will to see it through to the end as we are stopped by our western values from doing what is necessary.

You are over thinking it. Whilst its a distinct possibility and there probably are ex ANA in the Taliban, you have to remember this is a group that has been in existence since Soviets invaded, they have had plenty of time to get fighters trained in basic weapon safety. A dead Tally is no use to Allah afterall... We also need to consider that much like the Vietcong in Vietnam, that at least some of the people view them as the liberators from western interference and oppression. The fact that we see them as evil (which they obviously are) doesn't chime with how your average ill educated Afghan in Kandahar views them. The issue and the war is wider than the narrative presented by the western media and needs to be examined as a whole. Afghan has always been the death of empire from Alexander the Great, right through to the British in the 1880s to the Soviets and now the Allies. You need to think of Afghan not as a country but as a collection of tribes. They are not coherent. My prediction is splintering of the Taliban and a descent to civil war again much like the 1990s. Russia and China will also start to try to fill the power vacuum left by the west and will be the Talibans only source of reliable income and development.

A quick and nasty print to test fitment - 0.30 layer height (accidentally left the upper and lower skin thickness at 0.12 which also doesn't help) and a very low infill leaving a rough finish. Fitment was damned near perfect - just needed the hinge holes opening up a little and a relief hole drilled for the gearbox screw that protrudes a little. Test print was done in two halves then glued - I'm considering creating a channel for a bent steel rod to be sandwiched between the halves for reinforcement before epoxying them together. The final print would be done at 100% infill with a much smaller layer height (around 0.12mm) to smooth things out. Haven't worked out the rear (sliding) bit yet - probably an aluminium tube and 3D printed bushing and stock pad. I'll probably not bother with a sprung button mechanism, rather glue the metal button in place and have it non-folding. Real Steel: Yes, it's ugly. But I like it. Very popular with French and German Police forces - they also use them on MP5s and I've never seen one on an Airsoft gun.

I'm happy with my SA-E03 👍 All metal and well put together. Shoots quite well in my opinion.

Welcome back mate 👍 Yeah, I expect some things have changed and non-hit takers haven't 😉 Would be interesting to hear both of your thoughts at some point.

Not the M904E, however others in their range are.

I was last there many many years ago. If I recall correctly there were a few areas with stones close below the surface (wear decent knee pads if you are inclined to kneel) ….. and there was one particular mini bunker that smelt rank when wet & muddy. Whenever I mistakenly found myself in there I would try to balance with one foot on each side of a tyre and be very pleased to get shot out

I'm going to the Alton site this Sunday 22/8/2021, myself and three teenagers I'll be desperately trying to look after for the day, with three of us bringing our own AEG's / pistols and one being a rental (so I'll be able to comment on their chrono procedures). Online there are very few useful photos of this site, pretty much just marketing ones, so I'll try and take a few if I can. Is there anything others would like me to keep an eye out for at all?

Maybe yes before yesterday, I don't know that forum style. and rules I guess i wasn't careful because i was hurry to get thing. now, i be careful now on... Thanks a Kind Man. Have a nice day.

To be honest, would I join a forum virtually on the other side of the world, & expect a private seller with no history to ship to me ? My answer would be no. Focus on getting your money back & put this down as a life lesson, not helped by the issues worldwide possibly, as for the seller, if he's a scammer he'll be dealt with to the best of the mods abilities, unfortunately scammers are like herpes, always hidden away ready to pop up for another "go"

If you can get past the size reduction with the MP7. Go for it. Its just an awesome little gun. Change the hop rubber and you are done. Very accurate, good on gas, snappy, great noise etc etc If you have super large ape hands, it might be an issue. I have normal size adult man hands and I have not had a problem. This is mine

Hi all, just getting back into airsoft after a 20 year break. Pretty sure I used to come to this forum back then, although the only name I remember was a mod called Beaker. I had a pretty good collection back then, mainly TM which occasionally I'd take to work for unofficial skirmishes...got away with it too😀 Hope to be able to contribute when I get back upto speed.

Welcome back. That's quite a break. Some things will have changed and others not. I would guess that RIF's are cheaper and better performing than they used to be.

I’m not a brand snob, all I want is a GBBR AK with reasonably priced reasonably easy to get hold of mags. At the moment neither GHK or Marui are able to manage this so I’ll stick to my MWS M4.

depends on what your after tbh, different shops have different items I tend to use Patrolbase, bullseye country sport, fire support If one shop doesn't have the item then generally one of the others will

Putting the energy in yourself makes it more personal. Same with shotguns. Hours and hours of futile jerking your hand back and forth, but what a feeling when you finally blow your load right in someone's face.

My TM MK18 NGRS

Did someone call someone a TM fan boy? How dare you sir 😂. Mind you, you all know I am so that goes without saying 🙏🏼

Jeez relax SBoardley. You might break your keyboard mate. I wasn’t having a go at you. We’re all just here chatting about toy guns. First of all, there is absolutely nothing wrong with being a “fan boy”. I don’t know why folks get a hard on by using that phrase as an insult. I love TM. And what. Secondly. I bought it with my own money. Even if I was gifted an item, I thoroughly test said products and reveal all and any issues surrounding that particular unit. If you happened to have caught any of my videos where I was given free items you’d know that. Reviewers aren’t all alike you know. Thirdly. One of my AK mags struggled to take on enough gas to produce results which I was expecting. My other mags seem to have a better appetite and produce the performance I was looking for. This is a prime opportunity to test out varying levels of the Green Gas Mod to get the best out of that troubled magazine. Also remember that’s not a review. Overview containing my opening impressions on it. I’m still building experience with their latest AKM, and I’ll be making the review once I’ve grasped a good understanding of it. It’s a constantly evolving process that never ends. Reason why I’ve revisited the M4 MWS a few times over the years with its progress.

Ive no idea which brand GP25 it is but it fits properly.

So when you replace the fake wood with real trees, and put a better metal receiver in place, is it still a TM?

New arrivals. G&G sr15 e3 mod2 knights armament and Novritsch SSG10 A3. The PEQ's 3m velcro adhesive sticker won't adhere on the rubber switch so I'm looking for ways to attach it to the top rail. Just incase the stock barrel and hop aren't up to the job (SR15) I've ordered a barrel and bucking from @ak2m4@ak2m4.

Sorry for the delay; the site is now on PlayAirsoft as well: https://playairsoft.uk/sites/greater-london/echelon-airsoft/

Regarding the 4.5 and 5.0 nozzles on shorter than required inner barrels. It shouldnt work: if you put a standart tm nozzle in longer barrel it gives an absurd amount of FPS but has no gas efficiency and etc. Those nozzles are adapted for longer barrels and to my knowledge they should give LESS gas output for them, so if you will put it inside SHORTER barrels then they were constructed for the gun either wont shoot, will give a low fps, could as well jam. But hey it's just words of caution, let me know your findings on this one.

@AlphaBear I can confirm that this barrel wrench, with a light tap, fits into the rail barrel nut like a dream! Getting everything off with loctite is no picnic, you'll need to apply heat with a hairdryer for a few minutes to loosen the nut No need to ship from the states is a bonus. https://www.blackrifle.co.uk/Barrel-Nut-Wrench-p/tc22-wrpro.htm
