    Willpower, am I weak ?

    Bit of background, so in all the years I've been playing, my load carrying kit has always been either solid black or OD, & in both colours I still own numerous rigs & probably 100+ pouches of various brands & styles, I could probably kit out a section with ease. I also own numerous full clothing loadouts, dpm, m81 woodland, OD, black, flecktarn desert, vegetato/tata lol, multicam/mtp, probably more, & have also previously owned flecktarn, wusentarn, choc chop & probably others I've forgotten. Now multicam/mtp I've never been that keen on, only ever bought it initially in 2010 for themed games where camo was used for designating teams, & I've probably only worn it 3 times. But here's the point I've been getting to....... Over on Zin I saw a warrior nemesis rig in mtp come up for £35, I do like warrior kit so I found myself googling a review for the rig & my first click found me directed back here to a necropost from 2014, thanks @TheFull9, & I'm like "Hhmmmmm, that looks good", but then a moment later I'm like "but i rarely wear mtp, & besides, I've got too much shit" So I scroll on 5 minutes later "yeah but it's warrior & they do make nice kit" But then the other voice is like "ffs Mark, you dont wear that camo & you don't need any more feckin kit" & I'm like "yeah but no but" 🤯 Am I the only one ? 🤔 (even looks like me lol)

  4. I'm definitely guilty of buying kit and guns that I don't need, but I'll always make sure the bills and mortgage are paid first. @Tackle while I can understand you being annoyed by the throbbers described, I'm sure they would've been just as twatish, not matter what they were wearing

  7. I strongly recommend Revision Sawfly glasses with their own prescription inserts. I have used them for a few years now, along with either Cat Crap or Absolutely Clear anti fog, although the Revision wipes are good as well. If you go for the Sawflys, use the MAX lenses to give your eyes extra flank protection. They will stop a shotgun blast, so at least your eyes will survive as the rest of your head disintegrates!

    Willpower, am I weak ?

    I've found that no matter what I wear I still can't hide. I put it down to the big flashing arrow that follows me around above my head saying "Hit Here!" The least amount of damage I sustained was going directly to a game after work wearing plaster encrusted trousers and t-shirt? I'll stick with my viper kit though. I think it's amazing for price 👍

  9. Happens from time to time, for the most part I'll only bite if its something that's hard to get hold of in this country (be that because it's no longer produced full stop, or just something you have to order from overseas). I have a list of stuff that I'm after and if it isn't on the list it doesn't get bought, unless I'm confident I could sell it on for what I paid should buyers remorse kick in. In the past I've definitely fallen into the 'that's a really good deal, and I don't want someone else to have it' trap. Very much the FOMO brand of shit willpower. Over time I've realised that the moment I'm consciously trying to justify a purchase to just leave it.

  11. My Canadian girlfriend agrees. This isn't Facebook: you're not going to fool anyone, or fool us that you're fooling yourself. All[*] airsoft toys are cheap Chinese made tat with various degrees of markup and marketing. You're selling them, so you'll lie about them in order to sell them. You can go ahead and lie about how much you're lying, but... this isn't Facebook. [*] With the exception of Tokyo Marui, but you're not trying or lying to sell us Tokyo Marui.

  17. I'd get it and try it first before worrying about changing anything. Give the inner barrel a good clean before using it . Use a decent weight of BB (I use .30's in my GBBRs) put a few mags through it to start bedding in and set the hop and see how it does.

  18. It can be very subtle, takes just a fraction of a mm to do it but this sounds like textbook clanging on the way out. If its well aligned and not clipping it wont unduly affect accuracy.

  20. is the suppressor screwing on straight. if its misaligned that would cause random flyers. also worth checking that the exit hole in the suppressor is large enough and actually in line with the barrel. i can't imagine that that there is an air vortex issue as the BB is ahead of the pressurised air.

  21. First time back to Rift Comms Site 3 since about a year. Day was overall okay. The site needs quite a bit of balancing ever since the HS2 has changed the site. They have always struggled placing one of the spawns. Its always one team gets to the middle of the site and takes control of the main buildings quicker as they don't have to run as far, whilst the others have to try and push up to them in areas with naff all cover. It's also further to go back to the respawn and no medic rule really makes people play more slow and less likely to try stuff. I also think the amount of snipers there is getting out of control. We counted about 20 snipers on each team but could easily be more and it just makes the gameplay much slower as the snipers just like to sit back and chill instead of helping with the push. Few individuals were up to their cheating antics with blind firing and not calling their hits but overall wasn't "too" bad. Overall I think Comms Site 3 is lacking something at the moment that it used to have. It seems to have lost a bit of its charm. Could be fixed pretty easily by balancing the spawn distances. I would also like to see somewhat of a cap on snipers but I understand that it is probably bad for the site income and regulars of the site.

  22. Does it bring you joy? Will it bankrupt you? After my larp soft event I really wanted to start a full Pathfinder Para 2 load out - but the accompanying thought was "yeah, but how many times will you actually use it?" As such the whole loadout went to the dream list. But I have just been gifted a arktus para style chest rig and I found a dpm holster.....now I am looking at suitable maron berets..... It's ok, it's not just you

  23. Loving the shooters belt from Deadly Customs! Got a lot of recommendations from the forum members here and went ahead with this option a few months ago. The holster and pouches are for my Glock but too lazy to get it out of storage for pics - so just shoved a 1911 in (and it fits!) Really wanted to go all grey on the magazine pouches but they seemed pretty hard to get so had to substitute the Kywi for black. I saw some competition shooters in the US use Kywi's up front, and pouches with a bit of an angle towards the rear, so tried to copy that setup. Clockwise - DC universal Glock holster (QLS), DC dump pouch, DC shooter's double stack pouch, Kywi double stack pouch

    Aliexpress is your friend for anything like that. Evolutiongear do a Vudu clone. I’ve not ordered one, so I don’t know what it’s like, but I have bought an Evolutiongear Sig Tango6T which I’m very impressed with.

  26. I paid £30 for mine as a wall hanger thinking it was an aeg untill I opened it up ! Spent a couple of hundred on spares and mags and now I have a fully functioning GBB L85 , it's great for gaming too and of course uses the same mags as my L119's I replaced the trigger box , bolt including nozzle and a few other odds and ends. It had been converted to some sort of laser based training platform so the trigger box had been butchered.

  27. WE are good for spare part support but you will most likely have to order from Asia. £130 is an ok price but you could end up spending more than buying new you are looking about £50 just for a mag.

  35. As an owner of the MBR 308 SR and the SBR mk II. Like you I got the MBR (my first) because I liked the look of it then got the SBR because I wanted a shorter rif for cqb and thought why not ad i can use the same mags. So far not had a problem with my mosfets in either though I have since upgraded my MBR into a DMR with a perun mosfet. Did that after got my SBR so use SBR as main and when I want a little more power and range I use the MBR, plus i now have a spare G&G mosfet if it does go. I would say just go for it, if its what you like the look of you wont regret it. It shoots well out the box and i do love my 3 round burst. Single and 3 is my default settings, my mid caps at first would jam if fully loaded at first but once spring had bedded in not a problem. Would say at first leave fill them most of way to bed in then fully load them. Saying that the low caps never been a problem and have a single high cap which is never been a problem either. Im still enjoying them both still oh and the acetech lighter (I have BT version) tracer unit looks awsome on it too.

    I’ve totally fallen in love with the old WA Magna gas system. Here’s a cheeky semi-only SR15 DMR build, excuse the aeg mag jammed in the magwell, it’s there to hide my HPA shame. G&P Roller bolt is smooth as silk and the recoil at 145psi is beautiful

    I finished this Umarex Buntline yesterday, after being a little underwhelmed with a KTW Winchester and acquiring a stock cheaply. Turns out the stock is from a Colt SAA 2nd generation, what they put with the actual branded buntlines in 1957. Barrel made from aluminium with brass internally, and a tanaka ejector. Assembles and disassembles as it was designed. Shooting at 0.9 joules and hops 0.32s on a flat trajectory at 40m, the limit of my garden. Probably a realistic 55m but the bbs will be travelling pretty slowly by then. Hammer mod to make the hammer sit more flush with the frame. Bottom one is also hopped but for 0.25s.

    Low power scout rifle setup, (1.13j with a .25 , annoying my chronograph doesn't have settings for a .36 but it's under my local site limit) The only thing I want to change is the micro red dot for a better looking RMR type unit.

Latest purchase Had it out yesterday for an inaugural test run whilst marshalling Got it used and a reasonable deal Seems to be completely TM standard fps, but with a stainless barrel Am I right thinking from factory they have a brass barrel? Needs a new hop rubber, but happily placing .28’s just past the 50m

    I wasn't going to turn this into a huge build I swear. It's not even finished yet. I'm still waiting for a sun shade for the scope and I haven't installed the new outer barrel. I'm also thinking it needs a suppressor sleeve and maybe some scrim net. The suppressor and weighted piston with air break piston head should make it whisper quiet. Edit. Just installed the fluted outer barrel. Looks badass

    Heading up to AI500 this weekend. I'm really not much of a CQB door-kicker as I play sniper at woodland sites for both skirmish and Vietnam games, so taking the opportunity to try out a secondary setup I want to use when sniping, just with the m700 instead of the MWS. MP9 in an SMG holster on my right and mk23 on my left. I'm just going to play in all the long areas where the MWS will shine and shadowy places where I can ambush with the mk23

  50. Very similar photos from entirely different games, kit is identical if memory serves correctly outside of the RMR moving slightly (it’s now completely gone, we’ll call that a failed experiment). Since adding the Trex arms dump pouch to my belt (have not been a fan of previous belt mounted options, but the addition of the thigh strap has been a big win) the TED on the plate carrier has fallen out of favour. Likely be swapping that back over the trusty mini dangler for the next few games having been getting a lot of mileage out of the one on my chest rig every time I use it. Also the first time I’ve worn a UBACS in about 8 years for no other reason than I’ve been too self conscious, suffice to say they’re very good at what they’re supposed to be good at.
