I have got to the bottom of what’s occurring and thought I would share so anyone having the same issue might have a chance of setting it right. So the hop assembly is perfect. Absolutely nothing wrong with it. The bucking itself is in perfect condition with zero wear and everything else is exactly how it should be. the anomaly I found was on the nozzle guide. I noticed some abnormal wear along the edge where the hop dial goes over when the BCG is in its forward position. It looks like the nozzle guide plastic is ever so slightly warped towards the front end. There is a slight increment/curve upwards in the plastic which from what I can gather is causing it to catch on the hop dial (there was a slight knick out the dial in the spot I would have my hop set and wear/burs along the edge of the guide). As the dial is click forward to turn off it stands to reason that with every shot fired, as the carrier is returning to its forward position it is catching on the dial and turning it off with a few clicks every shot you take. This all rings true to the symptoms so I believe I have my culprit. the nozzle guide is very malleable so I have bent it a little, flattening out the curve and I have also shaved a mm of the plastic away along the edge in question incase it rides back up again. Inevitably I will order the AG Nozzle Guide as it’s made of a harder plastic and less likely for this to happen again but in the mean time the temp fix seems to be working as intended. I hope this information helps people experiencing the same issue now or in the future. From looking around it doesn’t appear to be a common issue so it’s nice to have an actual cause and solution.

It was still a better love story than Twilight.

I am knackered fellas! I met up with loads of new people. Got merry and drunk. Vienna was cool and quiet with nice Jazz Cafes, I saw an American Punk rock band visiting Bratislava called Good Riddance in a very intimate underground show ( I used to love them as a kid) I also nearly got arrested for playing guitar and teaching the Slovaks some Greenday songs at 3AM. Budapest was another kettle of fish, dirty, Ruin bars and alcohol everywhere, I managed to pick up a FULL set of Hungarian camo in my exact size for exactly 40 euros including the hat which is impossible to get outside of Eastern Europe. Lots of history, the food was a bit bland everywhere and a let down so much so I actually lost 5lbs over the past 9 days, but alcohol was good. I got invites to go to Serbia soon from a couple I partied away with. It's opened my eyes and I think it means I will be selling more of my Airsoft collection and bring it back down to under single figures. I need to experience this more and do the Digital Nomad thing! I got to visit the birthplace of my Grandmother and resting place of my Great Grand Parents in Baden for the first time, which was really rewarding. I am so exhausted though. The flight delays took the piss and I had to take a three hour Bus journey home from Central last night. Either way. It was great. Cheers for checking in on me! This is where I went to, no one else had a stock of Hungarian Surplus. Good guys, and they couldnt believe I ran a Hungarian kit at home.

Oh they did

A blonde and a brunette rob a bank. As the Blonde runs out dragging the safe with a rope followed by a guard with his trousers round his ankles, the Brunette screams: "You idiot, I told you to tie up the guard and blow the safe"

Found a couple offcuts of 0.9mm Ti sheet and bolted my face mesh to my Bolle X800’s 😁 Give it a test this weekend and if all good I’ll swap the lower bolts for rivets

I always worry when a woman sees me naked for the first time that she’s just going to scream and run out of the park.

I’m going out with an English teacher, which is a bit awkward because she keeps correcting my grammar during sex. She’s particularly annoyed at my improper use of the colon.

He said ‘box’ !🥴

Why sir, you appear to be pointing at the ground.

He had to let it go on… how else would he have been able to make such content and probably own a bigger house than any of us from it 👀

Johnny asks his dad how a country runs. His dad thinks and replies, ‘Well, it’s like this. I earn the money in the house, so I’m the rich. Your mum takes care of running the home, so she is the government. The maid is the working class, and your baby brother is the future. And finally you Johnny, are the average citizen.’ That night Johnny is woken up by his baby brother’s cries. He goes to the crib and notices that his brother has soiled his nappy. He runs to his mum and finds her fast asleep. He then goes to the maid’s room and finds her in bed with his father. He returns to his bed. The next day Johnny tells his dad that he has the working of a country all figured out. His dad asks him to explain. “A country is where an average citizen can’t get proper sleep as the rich are screwing the working class, the government is fast asleep and the future is full of shit.

I recently came back from Poland with a RIF successfully. There are some things you shall have to consider, mainly that being the airline, where you're going to/coming from and who you ask. Some Airlines have a strictly no RIF policy, some allow them, some charge fees for transportation. What is normally requested is that the RIF is inside a hard case, which is securely locked. The RIF must not have the magazine inserted, nor should neither the RIF or magazine be loaded. I normally slightly disassemble my guns too. If you want to ask about it, don't ask the baggage people. It's always better to ask the security or put it through nothing to declare. Should they need to check it, allow them. They may ask more questions after you've passed the security point however you shouldn't normally be questioned- it depends entirely on who you go to and where you are. That's about it.

Everything's a better love story than Twilight.

Puts my zip-ties to shame.

Yes, but you get 2 more mags, which you'll doubtless need since it's shooting nearly as weakly as a Tokyo Marui.

So you can have it new from here (in stock ..) https://www.tacticalairsoftshop.co.uk/Jing-Gong-MP5-SD5-Rifle-(Inc--Battery-and-Charger---068 Or from this guy for and extra £5 and lose your warranty https://airsoft-forums.uk/classifieds/item/28332-jg-mp5/

Not entirely sure how much i'd trust a source that includes a sales link. But if there's been a reformulation of the chemistry of nimh cells to eliminate memory this is the first i've heard of it, surprising companies haven't at least re-named it to avoid the stigma of the old cells.

Yeah, I know a site that has banned green bottled Blasters for shattering too much

Am i reading that wrong? Because it sounds like your saying nimh doesnt have memory?

I don’t trust people. Visually they look the same, and on closer inspection it would not be easy to know the difference between an emptied cartridge that still has a primer and a genuine deactivated inert cartridge. Even with the primer still in place there’s not likely to be a negligent discharge without some effort, but I’d be wary of someone just telling me they are fully inert. There are valid uses for an inert dummy, but that can include clear markings and unusual colours or a film prop etc where they would possibly at the moment want manufactured dummy inerts rather than modifications. Unless there’s a real need for close up realism then I’d prefer someone’s dressing up to be based on used cartridges or to have a hole where the primers cap would be https://www.cobra-ts.eu/en/blog-article/inert-deactivated-or-neutralized-ammunition-what-is-it-and-what-is-the-law-saying-about-it

I put a load of 1 litre bottles in the freezer to take with me last time, but the panic and rush of getting the lad sorted for his D of E expedition meant I forgot to take them. Ironically I was at Sentinel in Dunstable and his expedition site was less than 2 miles away, so there was no need to panic, nor get his mate's mum to take him. Nowt like proper planning eh? 🤣🤣🤣

they may have improved but a few sites have banned blasters for miss shapen/ shattering BBs

Well after the fluid loss I suffered last weekend, i purchased myself a camelbak.... Going to take a fair bit of washing and disinfecting before I drink anything from it. Shame gin & tonic is not conducive with the safe operating of an automatic weapon. 🍻👍😁

I was given the advice above, got some 7.4 LiPos and the SkyRC S65, and it worked out great. The Sky charger is a good bit of kit (though the instruction manual kind of assumes you know everything, recommend watching some YT videos) and it will also cycle charge NiMH batteries meaning they will be better off too. I kept hold of my NiMHs as backup, can't hurt.

People would want them, but perhaps not at a price that would make it worth your while...

Thanks for the advice dude and yeah I'm slowly starting to figure out that nuprol is basically just AliExpress minus the month wait lol

Thanks for the advice Crazy_Crystal...I picked up these for now and will be trying them this weekend!

Mtw build is finally finished. But Now I’m thinking it needs a longer rail? What do you good people think.

@Impulse and @Terrywristt a good friend of mine is going to be recasting some Ruger grip medallions if you want to go the whole hog doing the MK4 Competition look. He’s doing some custom wooden grips for mine at the moment and then Jack at Airsoft Engraver will be copying the proper trades Since getting Covid, I have t managed to get in to work to have a look at how mine looks at the moment, just had the upper and trigger cerakoted in graphite black

As one of the Yanks who was lounging around listening to Rolling Stones hits when you attacked I salute your efforts. I could not believe you'd got that close without anyone spotting you, and the woeful cry of "Medic" woke 1st Platoon from it's post-lunch slumber as we tried to work out what the hell was going on. Believe me we all got a telling off afterwards about inattentive sentries, which clearly didn't go in, as after we'd evited the NVA/VC from the Firebase later in the day, I made the mistake of standing in the open outside my bunker, only to hear a "ping" as a sniper shot bounced off my helmet, and watched our medic run straight past me... From the US point of view it was quite unnerving with all the hit and run tactics, but I did laugh at the number of times the VC attacked our position just at the point relief troops were being rotated in. If only you'd turned up a few minutes earlier we'd have been in serious trouble. As it was 1st Platoon was down to 3 men defending our radio mast at one point, having lost our officer and the radio guy, which made for an intense period waiting for our relief to turn up. Anyway I completely agree with all the sentiments. The gameplay was great and I'd thoroughly recommend these events just for the atmosphere and amazing effort put into the kits.

Does this chemists sell viagra? Yes mate. Can you get it over the counter? I probably could if I took two.

3 blondes were hiking in the woods when they came across some tracks. "These are deer tracks" said the first blonde "No, they're moose tracks" replied the second one "You're both wrong, they're elk tracks" said the third blonde They were still arguing when the train hit them

Before and after of my current pet project. Still lots to do but it's coming along. Was meant to just be a light restoration by removing the old camo job but added - angry gun surefire set , kac rail with 1-15 numbers , hao Castle nut , warlord sling plate and new stock as the original was fubar.

When the AAP-01 first came out, though the price/performance was really good. I really couldn't get behind the aesthetics.. So when the CTM ruger kit came out. I had to get it. I think the only thing I will change in the future is the trigger and the bolt.. But for now I'm pretty chuffed with how it looks!

Of course, the real unforgivable offence is posting Reddit clickbait here. Man, woman, I don't see gender, I just see an HPA wanker and a burger-roid-raging plonker who seems incapable of shouting the word "hit!". I don't know about you chaps / lady-chaps, but at the sites where I play, the briefing tends to make a point that you'll stop getting shot if and when you acknowledge the hit.

Made me chuckle😂 & scared in equal measures😧

Garage rip off. I think my local garage is ripping me off, does anyone else think that £500 for a Tesla exhaust sounds like a lot?🤔

The difference between a rectal thermometer and an oral thermometer is the taste.

Amsterdam. You won't be alone for long if you have a wallet.

I made an elastic loop to go around my rail at the receiver end to stop the sling hardware trashing it and clanking like a bag of spanners as I move around 😂 50mm elastic and 2mins with a sewing machine 👍

I’ve done a lot of pistol builds over the years , many moons ago it was a real chore with lots and lots of fettling required , slide to frame fit being the biggest issue for a pistol that’s going to work at the end of it . Nightmares about a Prime / Tokyo Marui SIG226 kit still haunt me to this day My last few have been an absolute breeze to be totally honest , mostly guarder kits onto TM pistols , a couple of Glocks , a Beretta and a 226e2 . the production quality has certainly stepped up in my humble opinion so I’d be as bold to say just have a crack yourself , a decent fitting micro driver set , some good quality pin punches and a good clean workspace and just get on and try . Take photos as you go or video it and take your time

had fun running the MP5 at UCAP Vendetta yesterday but it really needs a torch for those dark CQB moments. On the plus side the Magpul SL rail turned up today and my battery fits inside so it looks like I can now run a torch.

SCAM WARNING. I would like to warn you all of a scam of which I have been a victim. Here's how the scam works: Two seriously good-looking voluptuous 20-25 year-old girls come over to your car as you are packing your shopping into the boot. They both start cleaning your windscreen, their breasts almost falling out of their skimpy T-shirts. When you thank them and offer them a tip, they'll say 'No' and instead ask you for a lift to another supermarket store, in my case, Waitrose. You agree, and they both get into the back seat. On the way, they start undressing, until both are completely naked. Then, when you pull over to remonstrate, one of them climbs over into the front seat and starts crawling all over your lap, kissing you, touching you intimately, and thrusting herself against you, while the other one steals your wallet! I had my wallet stolen on October 4th, 9th,10th, twice on the 15th, 17th, 20th, 24th and 29th. Then again on November 1st, 4th, 6th, 10th,13th, 18th, 23rd, 25th, and twice yesterday. So, please warn all the other men you know to be on the lookout for this scam. The best times are just before lunch and about 4:30 in the afternoon. Morrisons have wallets on sale for £2.99 each, but Lidl's are only £1.75, and look better.
