    I must ask the question, if you hate it (Marmite) so much why do you want your mind changed? It is actually contains some vitamins that are hard to source, lasts eons, is quick and easy to 'dish' up. Cant go wrong with classic Marmite and butter on toast!

  12. "Mosfet" covers a wide range of things. Specna Arms EDGE and I think now all the CORE models have a very basic mosfet that just offers trigger protection and better current flow. If you go up to the Specna Arms EDGE 2.0 models, or the Double Eagle M9xx, then you'll get a fire control system with a lot more options like burst modes. If that's what you're after, then those are the two that I'd suggest. They also have decent hop units and quick change springs so you can fine tune the power easily, and both of them have Deans connectors. The Double Eagles are a bit cheaper, although at the moment it's a case of buying whatever's in stock. Or the S65, e.g. https://www.modelsport.co.uk/product/438918

  13. I haven't been for 14 years and don't intend to for several reasons. The main ones being: Cheating. The amount of people ignoring hits is rediculous, especially on the Sunday. The "safe zone" didn't feel that safe. I saw hardly anyone clear their guns before leaving the game area and the number of people walking round with the safety off and a finger on the trigger I'm surprised there hasn't been an incident yet. Yes the mags were out, but that doesn't mean there isn't 1 up the spout. Cost. 2 days of mediocre (at best) for double the cost of 2 normal skirmish days is a piss take Camping. There's always at least one dickhead who won't keep the noise down or thinks it's funny to set off a bfg in the early hours of the morning. That, or a subtle admission that, despite all those years in the hobby, they're unwilling or unable to run a half decent game As I understand it this is due to peat soils which can easily catch fire and spread underground As for their booking closing at midnight, both times I went they were supposedly fully booked but were still taking money and allowing players to just turn up.

  14. Nuprol make nothing, they just add their stickers to other companies products and add a chunk onto the RRP for the privilege. Here is a manual for the same charger, with another sticker/logo on it. https://www.overlander.co.uk/pub/media/downloads/VSRmini_Manual_V3.pdf Your settings for this battery will be: LiPo Balance Charge 1.4A 7.4v (2S) Your battery has a mini-tamiya Connector - which won't work with this charger unless you buy an adapter. Once you receive said adapter, you will need to de-pin the wires on the mini-tamiya end (using a pin or the inside of a biro inner ink tube) and swap them over, reversing polarity for Airsoft use. Once reversed, plug the yellow end into the yellow socket on the charger, connect the battery to the adapter's mini-tamiya connector, and the balance lead on the battery into the balance port on the charger. Start charging and away you go. The charger will beep when it's finished, generally around an hour depending on how good the balance logic is and the condition of your LiPo's cells. Really important - Never, ever, charge unattended. LiPo fires are not something to be taken lightly. I have seen garages and bedrooms gutted by LiPo fires local to me. It's very rare, but you don't want to set a battery on charge, pop out for 10minutes, and come back to your house burning down. There are safety products, such as LiPo bags, to use while you are charging if you want some piece of mind.

Anyway, after 5 days of radio silence he contacted me to say he was passing my front door!! RESULT So saved a road trip and he threw in 3 bottles of unopened gas to go with it Never skirmished Minty Just wanted something light and useable in the colder months

  19. Nicely done! As a fellow member of EVArmour Squad, I would recommend ostentatiously over-calling hits for a while until the squishes accept you as their rightful superior.

  20. lemme guess- running out of bolt space? you can sortof get away with running a longer bolt. it's not perfect, but it would work if you aren't pushing for speed, but given the motor that's gonna be driving it along i'd be tempted to get it a bit further back (so the full face of the tooth is hitting the full face of the piston). listens to the distant reee-ing of negative airsoft usually i'd be against just blanket dropping sorbo into a gun as often it can end up over-correcting, but given the aoe seems to need a bit more than the usual spacing it may well be called for here.

    Make the toast, spread marmite immediately,set aside for three minutes then slice cold butter and lay on top. Butter should be cold enough to leave teeth marks in. Lovely with glass of milk👍 Regards I love pizza as well but my ibs (irritable bloody spouse) doesn't 😂

  25. Might be worth trying one of the flap pouches for a fiver or thereabouts, it's not like it won't get used for *something*.

  26. sentences i never thought i'd write: just embrace the convenience of pushing things through the sphincter when you need to dump, and make sure it closes up relatively tight so you don't go accidentally dropping anything..... as for the mag pouches it's always a balance, the speediboi stuff comes at risk of retention or in this case lack of specialization, more basic pouches aren't going to be as fast to access but on the flip side your mag is at least going to be there when you need it.

  27. for short stroking removing the release teeth isn't really necessary, it's just something people like doing for neatness but outside a fractional weight saving it doesn't actually make a difference. for aoe it'll depend on how everything goes together, but as long as it's picking up smooth without clipping any teeth then it's good.

  29. Was going to recommend the flap pouches that I posted about the other day, but they are soft sided (though could be stiffened with some plasticard or similar?). As for dump pouches, some have a kind of inner..sphincter..thing...that helps to stop gear falling out.

  38. If only that was the worst thing Paras had done. Shortly before my Falklands Tour in 2016/17 they were kicked off Mount Pleasant Base for basically creating a ghetto in the accommodation and jumping out of ceiling voids and mugging their fellow soldiers. Fucking animals. But you would want them in a scrap.

    Does pushing the trigger forward reset the sear? If so, its normally its due to dirt or burs on the sears.

  40. Welcome @Raddy Of course this question has been asked a few times already so the first thing is to do some searches and read as much as you can. As our new member Dan said, next would be to play the three games so you can be registered in the UKARA database. This has multiple benefits. The obvious one being that you can then buy a realistic looking thing (RIF)😁. (Otherwise it has to be bright red, blue etc.) Another benefit is that you'll get some experience on how you like to play and what style you'll like. You already have a preference for an M4 but you can get long DMR type or short and light for sneaky attacks etc. I also have a SpecnaArms (SA-E03) which I'm very happy with performance wise. (It could benefit from upgrades of course but plenty to have fun out of the box) Other manufacturers to look at in that budget would be JG, CYMA, Double Eagle Remember to budget for: -Extra batteries (x2 Li-Po 7.4v 1400mAh or similar) (Deans is a better plug type if you can do some soldering) -Intelligent charger (SkyRC S65 is popular recommendation) -Boots with ankle support (you may already have) -Eye protection (search and read for info) -and other bits like carrier kit and BB's etc.

  41. AND both those other shops will happily F*** you off if they can , the first of the two is good as long as there’s no problems with your goods but the minute there’s even a hint of one it’s “sorry pal your on your own !” And the 2nd I once many moons ago bought a pistol from them and when it arrived it was blatantly obvious it was either a display model or a return due to the scuff marks and scratches on it when I contacted them they basically said “ you live on the other side of the country , tuff luck !” . Yes i do BUT unfortunately for them I also used to live in Bournemouth so at the time I frequently traveled down to catch up with friends so not two weeks later I ‘popped in’ to the shop and asked for the shit stain I’d been dealing with by name , you should have seen how fast the colour drained from his face when he found out who the very pissed off looking rugby playing Welshman asking for him was ! 🤣 needless to say the pistol WAS replaced and a few ‘trinkets’ were thrown in as an appeasement .😉 My take is as they are the ‘biggest’ names in the game there’s a pretty good chance Nigel Noob is going to them when he starts out as he’s not up on who’s who in the world of airsoft retail so they have a steady stream of wide eyed victims to pray upon ? Edit , Christ on his cross has anyone else got connections to B’mouth ! 😱 I used to live in Christchurch just around the corner from the ‘Bell’ 👍

    Old School Airsofters.

    I got into airsoft guns pre-VCRA, because I like guns. The shop where I bought my model aeroplanes sold a LOT of airsoft pistols which is where I got my first one (a NBB TM Desert Eagle). That shop closed down but a comic/model shop opened up and they were selling airsoft guns too. So I bought a TM SPAS (like you do). Me and my mate that shared a house used to use our guns to run around the house shooting each other when were drunk! Skirmishing came quite a bit later when a buddy of mine persuaded us to go to The Mall. And the rest is (expensive) history!

  48. Sounds like GearGrindr. Nope, I pay to go to an airsoft site to play airsoft, not to talk about playing airsoft. I can do that here free and without travelling. Still, I am grateful for their honesty that the actual play (if any breaks out) will be a completely chaotic whangfest.

  49. Cheese on Marmite spread toast, dipped in Tabasco'ed Heinz tomato soup. Bloody beautiful. The explosive diarrhoea half an hour later is less so. Tasty purgative tbh. Try it if you take strong opiates and suffer the attendant problems I imagine. I avoid the stuff.

    I was started on marmite when I was a baby and it's still as good now as it was then. We also had Oxo cubes neat. Not done me any harm 🤪
