So No2 son decided as he’s working and earning now he want a new gun that he paid for himself , I said have look on the forum anything like the look of and I can get it for you . and he decided on a Cyma M14 (being sold by @Majestykthanks bud 👍) which I will admit really threw me , did think he’d go for something more modern BUT he is my son so he certainly doesn’t follow the rest of the sheep ! 😁 any hoo started out as a two-tone and after a few hrs of work on the stock now looks a bit better I think .

I should really get myself a tip jar.

It's all terribly exciting right now. I now have all the constituent parts for a sleeper FN57. Basically all the FN57 specific upgrades, already got the non threaded non screwing up outer barrel. Now acquired Guarder Gen 2 slide and frame. The upgraded Hammer and recoil springs, specific inner barrel upgrade etc. Nice to get the Strike Warrior back up and running with a grip safety that's not split in half. I am seriously contemplating buying a second FN57, boneyard or otherwise and do a stupid build that won't fit in any holster.

Of course you are all aware it's Half-Term at the moment, & it's literally Airsoft "law" that during this time we have an influx of ridiculous & illiterate posts & threads, including sales 😏

Oh.... I had to leave a comment too... Hey buddy my cousin in my village really wants this as it will enrich his life he said. Although he doesn't have this much money to spend on a Marui so he asked if he could trade a camel and some sheep to being the price down a little. Of course if you don't have any space to put a camel and sheep then he understands, I'm sure this will sell very quickly and the new owner will be very happy as he will be getting great value...

It's nigh on impossible to have an actual chart of what spring achieves what energy in what gun. To have a somewhat "fair" comparison, the chart would need to have: Cylinder length Cylinder inner diametre Cylinder type Actual Cylinder Volume (so the inside area multiplied by the distance between the end of the port and the cylinder head, nested into the cylinder) Piston travel Number of teeth on the sector gear Air Seal rating (tricky, maybe on a scale from 0 to 10 and each number has a coefficient) Hop chamber Hop rubber Inner barrel length Inner barrel diametre Spring manufacturer Spring material Spring coefficients (gl finding them) BB weight BB brand BB average dimension (yes, get on the caliper and measure every single bb you are going to use) BB average weight (same as the above but with a precision scale) Not to mention how parts are aligned with each other and other bollocks.

ok, methinks that's enough internet for one day and its only half eleven.....

I'm going to be contrarian and say that this is a total Chad advert. Chadvert? It's completely honest, no flim-flam, raw thirst trap for NGRS simps. Respect.

Another idea which may appear good on paper, but in reality will be as useful as tits on a nun. There's way too many variables to give more than a rough approximation of what results you'll get

Asking people not to comment on the price is asking for piss taking comments and makes me think he knows he's taking the piss

Blind firing is not being able to see between the end of your barrel and the point of aim. To do otherwise is indirect fire. Presenting a target is just that. As for ethics, I am sure we would all agree that eudaimonia is central to airsoft. We are all there to enjoy ourselves. Does your behaviour in game add to or decrease to the enjoyment of the game for all those present?

My new DE UTR 45 turned up today.

Great... ...Would you like to expand on that a bit?

If anyone enjoyed their holidays a little too much and doesn't fit there cryes anymore. Gies a shout

So, it’s one to file then. Note to self: Don’t think about nuns

Sorry, I have to agree that this won't particularly useful given that I'd always encourage first getting the air seal as good as possible, then changing the spring. It would certainly be interesting to see comparisons, but there are just too many variables involved, starting with individual chrono, for it to be more than a scatter plot.

Total an accident unless the shooter was using the weapon in a way that would obscure their peripheral vision.

Meh , reality is highly over rated ! 🥸

i have a tenuous grasp on reality at the best of times, this isn't helping

They've been back and forth on it a few times, and I'm sure they have purple-haired employees who will potato-screech and ban the face off of anyone flogging so much as a toy cap gun. However, at the moment, the UK prohibition is on "(j) ammunition, firearms, or certain firearm parts or accessories". They don't mention imitations or replicas, and airsoft guns (under 1.3J / 2.5J) are not firearms (for the purposes of the Firearms Act 1968). https://www.paypal.com/uk/webapps/mpp/ua/acceptableuse-full We could ask their CS goons, and it might be interesting to see how many different answers we get. I agree with not putting "Real replica imitation firearm shooter gun" on the invoice, but "Jing Gong G36C" or similar is specific without being overt and at least gives you some options. I'd rather have something on an invoice than no invoice at all.

Most likely answer they would get vandalised with a couple of days being put up at any wood land site. Any on line booking system should have terms and conditions which include site rules but let's be honest about that no one reads them. Only way to get rules to be inforced is to have a Marshall team that knows the rules and are out in game enforcing them. If you are ever at section 8 you will occasionally hear my sweet voice bellowing the rules to everyone in game if I find some one breaking them.

Personally I don't think that hip firing is blind firing AS LONG AS YOU'RE LOOKING WHERE YOU'RE FIRING. Sitting in a bush waving your gun over your head saying it's ok because you can see through the branches? Nah, it's a dick move. Think about it, if you're holding your gun at your side with nothing between your eye line and the line of fire then yes, it's inaccurate but you're aware of everything between you and the target. If you're waving your gun over your head to clear the branches of a bush then you have no idea where that barrel is actually pointing when you start firing which is the basic definition of blind firing. The bigger issue is that if you allow someone to do that then it's a small step to full on, poking your gun round a solid corner blind firing which I hope we can all agree is stupid and dangerous (regardless of whether or not people do it "in real life"). The other point is that all of this is largely moot because the site sets its own rules. If you disagree with the rules then don't play there, if they say you're blind firing by shooting from the hip then it's irrelevant what you think, it's their site, their rules.

The reasoning behind this is down to the huge amount of variables involved. I always try to help where I can and never give any guarantees when I personally haven't installed the various part in the same gun from the same era. Dates are important as well since manufacturers change their products from batch to batch. It's a minefield. I don't know any tech who considers themselves an "expert", "competent with certain brands" is probably how they would describe their skills. Always something to go wrong or surprise you 🙂

2 days later and I received a free replacement. Honestly Feyachi have exceeded all expectations and delivered customer service that rivals most. Can't fault the company. Would highly recommend them to anyone who is looking for a well made budget sight with great customer service to back it up. Also looks like an updated model. New box, better instructions, minor improvements to the sight and a clearer reticle. https://instagram.com/feyachi_outdoors?utm_medium=copy_link

The problem with something like that is that there are so many variables. Springs vary from manufacturer to manufacturer, air seals vary even between identical guns etc. as a rule we generally know that in a well sealed gun an M95 or M100 will get you in the right ball park for the majority of AR types. I cant honestly see people bothering to update it.

Agreed, I get twitchy when I see some stable genius posting the latest video of their brrrrt-cannon shredding cans and metal plate. The 1.3J auto limit in particular is likely based on an assumption of short AEG bursts at about 15rps. A steady stream at 50rps from an HPA proton pack is a rather different proposition. This isn't something that we want revisited.

Based on my last experience, packed the day after. Then the items were shipped four days later. So five days between order and dispatch. If that is any help to you.

There's a lack of decent videos in English for this old sidearm, so I put one together. Impressed by the FPS out of the box (Hit 345 right off the bat, then settled down). I can't stand unboxing videos where they talk about every little feature, like "It has stippling on the grip". No duh! It's a video mate, we can see it. So this is just a very simple look at the gun.

A bit of a late reply but meh. No, I stopped playing there before it closed as a new job made getting there on time difficult. When I eventually did get back his attitude made me question whether I wanted to go back, considering other sites were now easier to get to and far better value for money

I ran up to a building once, no noise from inside so I stuck my head in the window At the same moment that a barrel poked out of the window (Just for info - I was carrying a radio with vox enabled) I exclaimed, jumped backwards and took a shot to the chest As I appeared in the safe zone, and told my team mate (with his handset on the bench) what had just happened ….. everyone present let’s me know “we heard” You replied to my reply too quick i was hoping the above tale would merge Another accident tale takes place on camera on our 2nd ever event at approx 0:35: The gunman had in fact been an ‘almost original’ of the team when forming in 2007/2008 before dropping out of the game for life things He played that game in 2010, and we ‘met again’ later that year when Oblivion opened (which became Ironsight) Its thanks to finally getting him on board that enabled his tech skills to put our game ideas into practice

An accident

Window fitting, van is useful for gamedays too

Solid plan.

I learned how to rebuild engines through poverty. Poverty and the belief that if not dealt with by force, it is hard to break something more than it is already broken (electrics aside!).

What the actual fcuk is this one all about.... I don't care if the AEG is hard to come by but selling it for more than MSRP and then asking people not to leave a comment if the price is too high is frankly taking the proverbial pi$$.

Keep it simple. Buy a second selector plate, Remove a little plastic. With that modification you have a gun that can only select semi. Yes you can move the selector to auto, but it'll still only shoot semi. When you want to go back to a normal Rifle you just put a regular selector plate in and change the main spring. I would used a mosfet with absolutely no features. As a 3rnd burst will still work on a semi only gun. Doing anything more than that is pointless. If you need full auto to clear a trigger jam all you do is split the upper and hold back the COL with a screwdriver.

That's sad though. Sorry about your gran. 🙁 Regards Talking about valentines day though. I was caught in a valentines scam. I ordered some jewelery for my wife but a load of tools and a TV turned up! Beware!! 😉

Cheers buddy, I think my plan is to gwt this up and running and then grab a new gun ASAP and as you said keep this spare. Wish I had found this forum before I got my gun as you guys have been brilliant and it would have saved me a lot of hassle, money and stress

Maybe I should brazen it out and say "Customised so the couplers don't get caught up in your webbing like they always do!" I reckon most G36 users do cut them off anyway...

My pet hate is when something is posted for sale and at the end of description the seller says 'does not include.....' If something is not included then don't put if on the pistol,rifle or whatever it is. Take pictures of what you are actually selling.👍 Regards

I had an argument with someone about this a year ago at Mayhem. I was being shot at by someone who had a rifle above their head over a bush, but their head was behind the bush. They claimed they could see through the bush. I complained to the marshal who agreed it should be aimed down the sights of the rifle. But another marshal said the opposite and neither wanted to mediate and get involved. The guy who shot me decided that because safety brief didn't specifically explain this circumstance to anyone. He could see me, so it must be fine. So in the end it it meant I have a very small chance of hitting them through the bush and they gained an unfair advantage. The site you played at may have stopped hip firing, trying to solve the same issue I had. The average Airsofter can be pretty stupid and it's best to have a simple single rule, then attempt to explain what I experienced above. Some rules that sound overbearing to us, are in response to Airsofters that have pushed the boundaries (And the spirit) of the more lax rules that existed before. Not because marshal's are trying to be arses. Hip firing I have no problem with.

Don’t mind him, like everyone who got “questioned” before the Nuremberg trials, he got his balls crushed so hard by the Soviets who were running the show, that by the time he got to the room, he was singing about everything they did during the war. Nevertheless, I agree with you all. “Just doing my job” is not enough. Not for the public service sector. These guys are employed for the benefit of the public, not the public servants themselves, however the reality these days is starkly different.

I'd characterise it as "only following orders".

Was it this fella ?

Yup I really like magazines… TM based RPK plus age appropriate sidearm. The garnish is because I wore it with full Russian kit including Leshy. Players initially thought they were engaging a sniper… and then regretted trying to get closer. Happy days at Elite Worthing. Very fine AEG to use, maximum fun. Could put mesh over the lens of course. 😁

Should probably give English lessons another go too

That would be a miracle considering its a GBBR....
