That's my issue with them as well. TAG rounds are so far beyond anything else that we use that I'm baffled as to how a properly informed insurer would indemnify a site. Given the masses, muzzle velocities and ranges claimed, they're barely within UK air-gun power levels, which is a particular issue in Scotland. Something something pyrotechnic something, but there are also solid rounds, right? The bangs are earball-hurty even outdoors, and given the ranges and time to target, any claims of precision have to be qualified with "at the time when you launch, not when it lands". They were fun when I saw and heard them used (at a distance) at a filmsim. But they were used only by the organisers, and essentially non-competitively for theatrical effect. Being aimed at people by J. Random Airsofter, that's another thing altogether. We've seen the injuries these thing can cause, right? Smashed eyepro, and significant tissue damage. They seem like something which will only be allowed until its banned, and it'll be a safety rule written in some poor sod's blood.

What would Ronnie Pickering do?

A few year later glad I bought this for my TM SCAR H. The launcher now awaits tag rounds..fire in the hole! It is not everyone’s cup of tea, but I’m the one carrying it!

Absolutely mind curdling 😡. The amount of times I've been asked for a birth certificate as proof of identity when it clearly states on bottom of certificate 'Not to be used for identification purposes' Officialdom gone fecking mad!!

At least it's an honest answer. Just don't try and ask for GHK feedlips outside of working hours...

Consider us poor tradesmen that work in London.... 32 boroughs all with different parking rules and permit options. Classic one the other day was turning up for a job and ask the resident for a visitor permit. The reply was "we don't' have a car". FFS. It's for me!!!!!! A recent new fuckery is for them to place restrictions on entire roads so that you need a permit to actually drive down it. Obviously a local councillor or politician lives down there and they don't want the road used as a rat run. One upside is the invention of parking apps. That has made things easier for handling multiple vehicles moving around the city... Oh yeah - having to annually renew the auto pay for the congestion charge. Nothing has changed, yet they want £10 a vehicle. Including the electric ones that are exempt from the charge in the first place. Registering that was a fun time. You enter the registration plate and they know its 100%, but still have to send them a copy of the V5. Shame I didn't know about any of this when I took a courtesy car in for a couple of days and the garage got a load of fines through. I feel your Gggrrrrr LOL

Thank you very much, thanks to you, I found out that the real problem is in the hop setting. I don't do this sport professionally, but I use it for hobby purposes. Unfortunately, this sport is not common in my country.

Maggi Thatchers Statue ... again....

https://www.mapleairsoftsupply.ca/products/superfeed-series-high-speed-replacement-magazine-springs-generation-2-w-heat-treating-pack-of-3 These seem to be rated as the best midcap springs out there. If I'm not mistaken murder mags use these.

Not sure about these trousers from AliExpress...

Have you adjusted the hop at all? Sounds like you're pretty new to the sport, set your hop then your sights.

🤣

It's like one of those films, guy comes to town, does his best to become everybody's friend, while at the same time stirring up shit with his ignorant outspoken ways, pretty soon people get wise to him & before you know it there's a mob with torches & pitchforks chasing him off the edge of a cliff, end of story. But is it ? Years later an enigmatic stranger comes to town, tries to fit in by sharing loadout pictures etc, but pretty soon starts to show his true ignorant colours, & comes out that he's the thick as shit illegitimate son of the guy the town hounded out, intent on avenging daddy. But it always ends the same way lol😏

I may not be in full possession of my faculties but I can spell dementia and know difference between site and sight.

This 50+ old cnut is quite literally lost for words, just when you think you've seen it all, along comes an Internet warrior whose extreme ignorance is only surpassed by his stupidity. Usually I'd counter with some lighthearted memes, but there's nothing that even comes close to this level of bollocks. All I will say is look around, admire anybody over 50, because with your shit eating attitude, you ain't ever gonna reach it lol 😈

You can't imagine my surprise at the fact this thread has ended up going in this direction, the shock is immeasurable.

Genuine Chinese copy!

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.

Is that a....gas grill?

a 3D printed sleave between the receiver and the stock would probably work

There's a bright orange post-it note stuck on the inside of my front door saying: "EYE-PRO, BATTERIES, WATER". Saved the day several times.

When I bought a surplus one last year, it was a little bit “stale “ smelling in the bladder. I let it soak with a tablespoon of bleach filled with lukewarm water a good dozen rinses out after an overnight soak, likewise with the hose and bite valve and it’s good as new 😉

Think that little incident is lost on most non GBBR users on here.

I know your pain, been thrrough it many times with the council. I'd bet they'd have a better chance of licking their own elbow than producing a system that works.

Picked up a Hera Arms grip and Brighter C off these 'ere forums and a 22TPA motor from @ak2m4.

Agreed, there are loads of YouTube videos on how to do it for various guns. Your hop unit will be under the dust cover. What they don't generally show is the trajectory. Credit to Novritsch, he actually explains and shows that here. What I do is to over hop, to ensure that I have at least enough hop applied, then dial it back slowly until the BB just lifts towards the end of its flight. It helps to have someone standing off to the side to observe your trajectory.

it's certainly possible to replace feed springs, maple airsoft do replacements although they can be hard to find. i've also done it replacing springs/followers in e&l mags with cyma ones, but that would mean buying whole mags which would kinda defeat the purpose.

I'm a fan of pyro, I like shit that goes bang. The bit I don't quite get though is when a site says you can use paper pyro up to MK5 but TAG rounds are also fine. The original blurb for Reapers suggest that they are closer to a MK9 and having had a few land near me (at Red Alert), I could easily believe it.

My apologies you are correct the first video is in fact people from the UK. But, and this isn't a dick swinging competition, having done karate for a number of years there was never once a strike first attitude. In fact the complete opposite. Striking another person was taught as the last resort if all other avenues had failed. There is definitely a difference between attitudes towards fighting/defense in the US and the UK as well as other countries around the world. The UK has had some very high profile cases where a single punch from someone claiming a preemptive strike for self preservation as self defense has killed someone. What I was trying to articulate rightly or wrongly is that a preemptive strike isn't always the best course of action.

This is actually so far from what is taught in the vast majority, if not all of martial arts its untrue unless of course you are referring to the likes of MMA which is more a hash up of offensive techniques taught in various martial arts. Likewise in security or personal safety the first things you are taught is de-escalation techniques or to remove yourself from the situation only. What you are describing is probably the reason for the majority of "self defense" killings in the United States.

I stick to 7.4v Li-Po's in standard AEG's unless manufacturer specifies 11.1v is OK. (I only have one AEG that uses 11.1 which is a Lonex BAW)

QFT. Of course, on the internet, anyone can LARP as a psychopath. I'm guessing that our local gangsta kid had no dad, or too many temporary ones. Which I suspect is also the extent of the gangsta kid's rufty-tufty experience. Me, I keep it old school, street style. Does he actually add any value here? I've had him blocked for as long as I can recall. Which is of course only about 10 minutes given my advanced years.

Oh piss off LOL.... Well.... Yes... To be fair there have been a few ideas in my head that would benefit from one. The main problem is the strength and temperature resilience of the end product.

Is that where the deja-vu about the age-based insults is coming from?

On an unrelated note, for some reason i find myself reminded of the phrase "playing chess with pidgeons"

Emergency Chimp summation is pretty accurate of my travels. FFZ or Tuddenham.

This guy probably learned from D.U.S.T. and he ain't gonna make it into his thirties..

you realize i wasn't quoting the bit about pushing people back right? i was quoting this: because that will get you kicked off site..... we're talking about one geardo losing his rag at an airsoft site, not taking a walk in downtown mogadishu....

ladies and gentlemen if it may please the court i propose the following motion for "dreamer" be applied to the defendant. to this purpose may i present exhibit A: the charge sheet for which includes but is not limited to: stating it has been "upgraded" but without what parts have been used or who installed them use of what appears to be a brass cleaning rod intended for RS use, complete with brushes, one can only imagine the barrel scratches nuprol bb's cheapy chinese charger with an EU socket, for the nimh ad description says cyma, but lower receiver says specna arms portrait orientation pics all for 400 schmeckles, sans delivery charges ofc.

Did you hear about the man who was so bored whilst riding on the London underground he decided to teach his dog how to play the trumpet. He went from barking to tooting in under an hour.

Marmite. Glorious marmite. Drizzle it on top of crunchy peanut butter, so good.

Inspired by the Springfield V12s, I present the Detonics... V6? This is eventually going to be mocked up (with further inspiration from Marui’s Vorpal Bunny) with smoothed grips, a front rail, and a battleship grey paintjob. It is an ARMY R45 with an ACM Shield RMS, a Nova trigger, and Shooters Design 150% recoil springs. Not pictured yet are the Army extended magazine release and modified grips, which have been filled with putty in readiness for relief cuts and sanded smooth. Milling the slide and the adaptor plate allowed me to sink the optic 3.5mm into the slide. This actually lower-third-cowitnesses with the factory sights, somehow. Custom milled and drilled slide and barrel ports. The ARMY’s outer barrel is stainless steel and broke one of my milling bits. Lesson learned about using them to drill holes... Total cost so far: ~£120

I am a child

The Goggs are mesh supplied by @heroshark, his super fandango hexagonal stuff. Did some drill today with the mask, tweaked it about - all good. Rivetted the lower and painted it up Definitely the best setup I’ve ever had, with prescription inserts in the X800s

Slapped a Ruger Target stock onto my Rogueworx Underlever KC02, aside a Rogueworx trigger it’s pretty much complete The Trijicon VCog knock off is surprisingly nice too! Beautiful glass that’s on par with my Vortex Crossfire LPVO
