Working on customizing my Secutor. Going to paint the bipod at some point, camo the scope and suppressor, and paracord braid the hand guard..

Don’t know if it’s just me and my general hatred of all things ‘social media’(which I think is a total oxymoron should be called ANTI-social media the shit it causes !)but are some of the status updates on here seeming to be getting more and more like a ‘farcebook’ update ? I keep expecting to log in to the forum and see a “I’m fuming !” or a “never trust a snake !” Followed by a “what’s up hun ?” THEN followed by a “PM me !” 😳 Yea I’m old and grumpy as fornication .

Or putting the gun down, stricking the cap, waiting for the glorious plume of colourful smoke to emerge before throwing...... only for it to actually be a thunderflash. I have never done that, not ever, honest

Poor lad, Comes along here with a heart full of excitement and motivation only for you bullies to make him realise in the blink of an eye that as good as the motivation is in his heart, his head is full of broken bottles! We will hear about him on the news in a couple of weeks, been running around the local park with his mates playing with RIF’s on the adventure playground! Half term has a lot to answer for 😂

🤐 Payday tomorrow, alreadying prioritising my next purchases 😁

I doubt that there is a single member of this forum who should be allowed out of the house with wallet and without adult supervision

That’s because “they” skip Modern Studies class to smoke tabs at the back of the bike shed while playing Top Trumps Or was that my education in the 80’s-90’s?

I'm still amused that op ran away. Imagine if he actually got a site up and running and someone had a complaint. NOOOOO, I'M GOING AWAY!

OMG honestly babe I just done the biggest shit ever! omg omg it's huge.

Hi all, Thanks for the advice, I pulled the trigger (pun intended) on the M904g. Had an email saying it's arriving today so really impressed with that! Thanks for all of your advice!

It's half term in some parts of the country. Normal service should hopefully return soon

Half term ‘nuff said ? 🤦‍♂️

British Red Cross have a Ukraine appeal running if anyone felt like skipping playing war for a weekend and sending the green fee over there instead.

I'm sure that's the SOP for some site owners

With regards to any CNC slide, there is no guarantee that they will be a drop in fit just because it is CNC or it is made by a certain manufacturer, no matter how pricey. Throw in an aftermarket outer barrel by another maker and then see what happens. That said; from experience: Prime, Nova, PGC, Detonator and Shooters Design are all what I would class as quality manufacturers. With regards to weight, on a Western Arms 1911 the standard slides used to weigh the same or 5gms less than an equivalent aluminium slide (Prime/PGC/SD). Western Arms do use a heavy weight plastic in most cases. With Marui though, the metal slide is more than likely to be a bit heavier than the original plastic slide. Some models more than others. The good news is that the heavier slide gives more of a recoil impulse. Gas efficiency will vary depending on model, but without making an exhaustive list, with an SD slide on an HK45 you can easily rapid fire a magazine without issue. Obviously if you are looking to fire the gun in -5c with 134a or just want 5 mags of BBs off per fill then a metal slide is not for you As you asked in particular about the HK45, then in this instance I am only referring to the HK45. Each gun model needs to be taken on a case by case basis. I have fitted both Detonator and SD slides to HK45s. I would class both as a drop in fit. Both have Creation metal outer barrels which fit both slides without issue. The Detonator is a better finished slide. The quality and evenness of machining is better and so are the markings. Blowback feels similar with both metal slides. In the first two pictures below the tan frame has the Detonator slide and black frame has the SD. There is nothing wrong as such with the cosmetics of the SD slide (depending on how fussy you are*), it is just the Detonator one is 'better'. *For that reason (and because I am pedantic), I ended up getting a second Detonator slide for the black one as seen in the second two pictures. You can compare the photos below which may hopefully guide your decision.

Cheap suppressor cover to try for the looks

And the power is finally back. Taken a loooooooong shower and booked a Skirmish for the weekend. Thanks for putting up with my moaning, lads 😁

Dis, right here

I'd say the OP shouldn't be allowed out of the house with an open wallet, without adult supervision. If he tried to 'run a business' he'd spend the rest of his life broke and a drain on taxpayer's money!

This. I went to a site last year where they had a rule that kevlar barrel socks must be used and could be bought or borrowed (with a deposit) from the site. When I said I didn't know about it, I was told its on the faceache page. When I mentioned it might be a good idea to put it on the website as well for those of us who don't do Facebook the member of staff didn't seam too happy

Do you mean like a player who puts their gun down against a tree, throws some smoke getting the attention of the photographer, posing for a photo shoot then ambling along to catch up with the action? I have never done that, not ever, honest

Oi, you got a loicence to sell them permits? OP's big brain thinking: "Right, Nardo, I've had a stable genius idea, all I need from you is to do all the work, take all the risk, collect all the money, then send it all to me. Don't bother paying any local taxes, rents or utility bills, because obviously they don't apply to me." I'm not entirely comfortable that this lad has even got his hand on two tones.

I have some terrible news for you: Forums are social media too

Probably off to zero wank or faceache to whine about how the bigger boys were mean to him

Why did the sperm cross the road? Because I put the wrong socks on this morning

@Skullchewer, no offence intended, but in line with your post apocalyptic loadout, surely regular showers are frowned upon, I'm pretty sure Wez & Toecutter didn't cane the Lynx gift sets in mad max😜

I just got a job as a cuckoo in a cuckoo clock. It’s not the best job in the world, but it gets me out of the house.

OP has left the building...

Never underestimate the sheer power of Airsoft, one minute your a noob asking about "speshul licences", next thing your Alan Sugar intent on world domination 🤣 PS to say that it's never been done in "said" country but is legal there is absolutely humongous bollocks, Airsoft is a global sport, & even the countries its not legal in, such as Cyprus for example, still have groups of players who do their best to stay under the radar, while at the same time getting out to play regularly. Prove us wrong, where is this magical land just ripe for conquering 🤔

Your want to start an Airsoft business, you've crunched the numbers and have determined that it will be profitable, but you don't know what you need..... Yup, winning. Hold up, weren't you the one asking about shooting two Tone RIFs in your local woods not long ago? Seriously, I would educate yourself A LOT on this hobby before you start trying to run a business around it 🤦🏼

I sell international Airsoft permits. £5K for six months. PayPal (F&F) only please.

Obviously North Korea

Go on then, what country is it? I mean, no one cares enough on here to nick your genius idea, so you may as well spill the beans.

A brief history of the RS Honey Badger. Developed in 300 BLK ammunition for the replacement of the US SOG MP5 SD range however it was never adopted but AAC and then Q went on to refine the Honey Badger and offer it to the civilian market. Currently the range includes an SBR, Pistol (actually an SBR but with brace instead of stock) and lastly a suppressed model. The Double Eagle M904G. Double Eagle is normally a name I have shunned as they have made some pretty bad, low powered airsoft guns over the years and it would take a lot for me to even consider buying anything from DE. When I saw the new M904G from DE appear on the Taiwangun website I almost overlooked but I thought I’d have a closer look at it seemed to be a good external copy of the real Honey Badger. After looking into DE’s offering a bit more it got my interest when it claimed it had an adjustable trigger, Mosfet as standard and claimed to be able to binary fire out the box. For info Binary fire is the latest crazy in the US RS market where you get 1 round fired when you pull the trigger and another round off when you release the trigger. I have a mate in the US who has built an SBR in .45 with a binary trigger and it’s mental to fire. Another selling factor for me was the price. DE are offering various models and the M904G can be had for £106. That’s right, an AEG with mosfet, binary trigger, hair trigger and adjustable burst fire (1-5 rounds per trigger pull) for 104 quid. It’s either going to extremely crap or extremely awesome at that price. So after ordering and waiting a few days the AEG has turned up. It’s packaged inside a nice box with foam protection. Inside the box you get the AEG, Hicap magazine (300 rds), cleaning/unjamming rod, a wind up key for the magazine (also has the standard wheel on the bottom to wind if you want), a spare Deans connector, a Deans to Mini Tamiya connector, a decent manual and a Mosfet setup guide. The rifle is made of polymer apart from the outer barrel, Flash hider, Gas pipe, Fake bolt cover, sliding stock rails, part of the magazine catch, charging handle and the nuts and bolts holding everything together. The polymer used is very thick and has no wobbles, creaks or thin spots. Overall it seems rock solid and will take a lot of abuse. Looking in a bit more detail, starting from the front and working back, the flash hider is a metal copy of the Q Cherry Bomb flash hider which has threads on the outside to take a Q flash hider (Thunder Chicken or Trash Panda suppressors) however I don’t think anyone makes an airsoft version of these so if you want to fit a suppressor or another flash hider you an as the flash hider is held on with a grub screw to the -14mm threaded outer barrel. The metal outer barrel has a low-profile gas block fitted and is surrounded by a M lock style rail system. The top of the rail is full picatinny and is held on using a unique clamp system which relies on a nut to hold everything in place. The clamp system seems to be made of metal and also seems rock solid. The upper receiver is in the honey badger shape with cut-outs for the sliding stock. There are also some trades for the FALCON fire control system which is the name for the mosfet inside the gearbox. The dust cover looks to be metal and is spring loaded. The charging handle is a raptor style one and when pulled back makes the dust cover flick down however the fake bolt cover doesn’t lock to the rear so you need to hold the charging handle to the rear to adjust the Hop up. The lower receiver has a fake bolt release, metal receiver pins that are locked in place with allen headed screws, a DE trademark, an extended mag release button, plastic selectors and a very well textured and ergonomic pistol grip. The trigger is plastic but doesn’t have any flex when pulled to the rear. The trigger guard is designed for gloves and is moulded into the lower receiver (just like the real thing). The stock is in the honey badger style and inside is the battery wires which have a deans connector as standard. The Deans to Mini Tamiya in the box allow you to use a battery with a mini Tamiya connector if you want. The sliding stock has 3 positions but if you wanted to extend it more then cutting slots into the metal rails wouldn’t be an issue. The sliding stock is spring loaded so when you press the 2 side buttons to free the stock it pops out slightly making it easier to deploy. The stock cap is more like a cross between a stock pad and brace as it has a cutout on the lower part and there is a little lateral movement but nothing to panic about. There is also a sling loop at the point where the stock meets the lower receiver. The AEG comes with a set of polymer iron sights and these seem to be a copy of the IMI Defense polymer flip up sights. The sights have working elevation and windage adjustments and lack the IMI trademarks. Let’s move onto how it fires. So attaching a 7.4v Lipo in the stock tube you hear the mosfet beep to let you know it’s good. Out of the box it is set for maximum trigger pull, safe-semi-auto but after a couple of minutes following the supplied mosfet programming guide I had it on a hair trigger, with binary fire and burst set to 3 bb’s per trigger pull. Resetting it back to standard takes about 5 seconds if want to start again. With the 7.4v fitted it really is a snappy firing AEG. So snappy that when I fitted a 11.1 Lipo I didn’t see much different in semi but to be honest all this goes out the window anyway when you have the binary trigger set as when you spam the trigger in Semi there are BB’s flying all over the place. It’s awesome. Mine is firing too hot for UK sites so I’ll need to change the spring out for something a bit lower in FPS. I’ll also mention that the hop unit is a rotary designed one and looks to work well with .2g’s and I’ll try it out later with some heavier BB’s to see what it can handle. Part 2 will be a strip down and there is very little I want to change externally (unlike me) and all I will do to this one is fit a holosight and look at possibilities for fitting a tracer. Initial impressions are that it’s ridiculously good AEG for the money and I’m looking at Double Eagle in a new light. Here’s a size comparison of the 904G next to a ARP 9.

They do sit flush , that’s why I sanded barely half a mil off the bottom edge of the grips . Would have driven me mental if their had been a gap no matter how small ! 🤯 .

Or stood in the shed sorting through old pyro separating the good from the battered, damaged strikers etc before taking them off for a ‘safe’ bang (the ones that have suffered from battering, or failed but not left in a field to be picked up by kids) One of which having previously been an old school paper mache style BB grenade but only had the strip of striker tip, fuse & bang remaining Straight to the ‘dispose’ pile But touching along the workbench as passing it over…… and Hiss…… Followed by prompt dropping Followed by looking at the stack of pyro besides a hissing fuse Pick up the hissing fuse Turn around to throw out the door behind Glance at the open kitchen door behind the shed Drop fuse Stand on fuse Feel thud Be thankful for not stepping out in bare feet

Enjoy your new gnu You probably will need to replace the spring sooner rather than later but that *super* easy to do, and a spring costs a tenner. Apart from that I'd seriously say don't be tempted to 'upgrade' it, this gun shoots nicely and it seems (by all accounts so far) to be reliable, so have it and keep it as your Constant Friend rather than meddling and breaking it. So says a voice of experience 😛

Sadly, where far too many sites run their entire business, and half-termers ask "wut am best gnu 4 winr8 budget £30 2 £2500" (as an image macro). It's literally the only reason I'm on there. I mean, the first part.

Yeah, but Wez and Toecutter both died. In Mad Max 2 you see Max washing at one point. Clearly he survives cos he has fresh under crackers. Also: here we are, Thursday morning, still no power. I am very stinky pew 🤣 I bought a crappy Chinese peq from fleabay, it has a cover that adjusts the beam. It also offered to check my phone messages for me 🤔

Some shops will check it for you (I can't remember which right now, but I'm sure someone will post soon). If they're a site member then try contacting the site

Just ordered a new makarov holster from russia. Also going to make myself a leather one.

Take your business plan to your local bank and see what they say 😄

Your asking in the wrong country.

Glocktopus should win the day.

A British Airways flight reached cruising altitude when the pilot came over the intercom "Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to BA fight 121 from Heathrow to New York. The weather forecast is good so we should have a smooth ride, landing at approximately five thir OH FUCK" After a long silence came back on the intercom "I'm sorry if I scared you then ladies and gentlemen, it's just that a flight attendant spilt coffee on my lap. The front of my trousers are ruined" "That's nothing" shouted a passenger, "you should see the back of mine"

Peanut Butter Family Photo. Not all my HKs, just all my tan HKs.

Nothing too epic just had an idea to avoid loosing mags from pistols . Took the grips off sanded the base edge down a bit then cut a piece of Velcro to fit around the screw raiser back together trim the Velcro to correct size and job done ! 👍

Shortened it slightly and got it nicely fitted to the gun. Need to properly paint it though.
