I appear ot have just 'accidentally' ordered one from Airsoft world ?

I already have an A&K Masada yes, but why not two? Edited out the sellers name. The seller slid into my Discord DMs asking if i'd be interested in taking it off their hands, all accessories and postage included for £150. Having just been paid with some overtime it was impossible to resist an early birthday present to myself. Gun works fine, apparently the selector is grinding which isn't a surprise having taken these apart before - the ambi selector kinda sucks and is a bit of a bastard when reassembling the gun. I'm now theory-crafting a shopping list to turn this into an actual DMR as it's currently at full-auto AEG limits (i've posted my shopping list in the electric guns section if anyone's interested). Might be nice to try out a different style of gameplay as well as the technical challenge of making a consistent DMR having not done this before. Local site limits for DMRs are 420fps so it gives me a nice bit of overhead for throwing heavier BBs.

As promised...

Forget him! Andrey is back! Yaaaaay ? I mean, what can go wrong here? A Ghk ak - which has dubious qc to start with And a seller with the proven technical abilities of a drunk baboon Whats not to love ……. Oh yeah, The £900 ?

Love the "basically new, ONLY used a handful of times" (during which he may have fired 10k bb's lol)

I do not normally post here, but this advert was brought to my attention. It does seem optimistic pricing when a new gun and 7 mags is around £650. Using 2/3 rule of thumb for second hand would be around £450 or am I missing something?

Hi all, Just joined up today, after having got back into Airsoft a couple of weeks ago. In my youth I had a few cheap airsoft guns - couple of pistols, a shotgun and an AEG. Never been to a site. Picked up a few GBB pistols recently and have a cheap second hand AEG on the way. So I can visit my local site and see how I get on. Based in North Hampshire, so Camp Bravo Eversley has been suggested as a good place to go for a first skirmish. Looking to go at the end of the month. Glad to be part of the forum, and look forward to learning a lot over the coming months? ...oh and I already have the TM Hi Capa bug!?? Cheers?

I needed a fire selector plate for my PTS Masada which is no longer available. Airsoft Engenuity ( find them on Facebook) were able to quickly, and at a reasonable price,make one. I highly recommend them. This is the service they can provide. "As you know, I have 3D design, print, scanning and CNC engraving services.. so pretty comprehensive and can design and make most things out of all plastics.. cant do anyting metal other than light CNC engraving."

Welcome! Sounds like you’ve got the bug where it comes to collecting gear. Unfortunately for your bank account it only gets worse when you start playing games ? Can certainly recommend Z-Mart if you fancy a CQB fix, would advise bringing a torch or weapon light! Also makes a great excuse to get a tracer too.

Second vote for this site.

90 odd quid for the warhead base, 114 plus for the t238.

Any chance you can accidentally order another and send it to me? VFC seem to do a pretty good job of building gas guns, well, by version 2 anyway. What else is on their horizon?

Is that a front sight block complete with a cut stub of outer barrel i see pictured?

Welcome There are loads of good sites round our way, Bravo is good, and if you enjoy it you've got Ironsight in Andover, Red Alert in Newbury, Camouflage Airsoft in Alton, and if it's a wet day and you're not afraid of the dark Z-Mart in Newbury.

Ahoy and welcome. If you're a spendy sort don't visit the classifieds! Skirmishing is great fun, just go with the attitude that you're there to get shot and call the hits, rather than to reenact the starring role in Extraction, and you'll have a blast. If it's your actual first time, go along and have a listen when they shout out for the rentals - there will be a basic what-to-do briefing before the main brief, the most important parts of which are never, ever remove your eye protection in the game zone, and always take your mags out (pistols) to and fire until they're clear and put them on safe before entering the safe zone. Airsofters tend to be super friendly and keen to help, so if you have any questions, or run into problems with your guns, just ask around and folk will be happy to help you out.

Nice to see royal mail working well. Two orders were due today. The parcel from AK2M4 arrived fine. The tracked 24hr package from bullseye was due today. But the last update was 'arrived at your local depot' at 9am this morning.... all I wanted to fit my new barrels tonight so i can test my pews while home alone

Arrived today! Not bad for standard shipping! Now just to Dremel the life out of the front rail to make the battery fit ?

Welcome .

Just...yeah, no https://prefired.co.uk/ads/misc-box/

When Gunfire and TaiwanGun started surcharging for PayPal, I ratted them out made a "concerned customer" report in a fit of pique. I wonder if they're still doing it.

My 2 cents; Kwa mp9. I've had one for years and it is one of my faves. Fairly light but sturdy. Nice rate of fire if needed. Small enough to be easily wielded for tight cqb and still has nice enough range. Despite being small, there's still plenty of room for attachments if you want to run a tacticool look with suppressors, peq/torches, optics, grips etc. Because its small, if you decide a gbbr is not for you, you could still use it as a secondary, albeit it's a bulkier secondary than a pistol. Its quite loud and looks proper sexy. Mags are 28 rounds (I think, might be wrong) so you have to conserve your ammo as so many have already said but it's a blast. Again, as already said, mags are heavy and pricey, but running an mp9 primary in cqb has been so much fun over the years. I did dual wielding mp9's once.....Once. reloads were a bit tricky due to how big and weighty they are but wow was it fun! I can't offer much more regarding gbbr. I do have a we g36 but I can't comment on it in game as I haven't yet got it site legal (shoots hot out of the box) but it's nice to hold and surprisingly light due to its polymer build.

Hey, it's that guy who lives at the imaginary McDonalds up the goat track in the middle of nowhere again. This smells fishier than a trawler's orlop.

I swear airsoft skirmish's are 10% tactics and 90% who's gun works better on the day

To be fair they did very briefly mention the use of camouflage by hunters prior to WW1 but it was just a sentence. It's a fairly well written brief read, though I'm guessing it's acting more as a marketing tool mostly discussing patterns that they sell with a few others. Must say, I'm slightly tempted to try Pencott as a result. The bit on camouflage in the animal kingdom was quite amusing in its simplicity but I think my favourite bit was the TigerStripe pic after all the other camo patterns being presented in actual environments.

I wonder if the assorted 'upgrades' are the reason its faulty...... that said the bare faced cheek of selling a non working Dytac for 350 is impressive in its own way.....

I'd lean towards the warhead, the ramp up speed makes for a better percieved snappyness. Only downside (although afaik they might have alleviated it on their newer motors) is the contacts on the warhead are much more delicate, so a lot more care needs to be taken on the install rather than stuffing wires in willy nilly.

More than new ✅ Faulty ✅ Assortment of random 'upgrades' ✅ https://airsoft-forums.uk/classifieds/item/40615-faulty-dytac/

currently trawling the gov website to try and find out who i need to complain to, then figure it out from there also going to be firing emails to VFC and SWIT to find out if i can get replacement parts.

My friend Dave asked me if I could think of anything that could go wrong with a sentient spacecraft I said "I'm sorry, Dave. I'm afraid I can't do that."

100% On Sunday we were defending our 88's and thinking I was pretty well covered I spotted a 'red' making a dash to get our flag, as I popped above my cover to stop him in his tracks I spotted another 3 or 4 reds to my left... I got hosed big time, don't even think I got a shot off.

Every time I'm at Red Alert I go in and have a browse (or two). Good selection of 2nd hand stuff (RIF's, outfits, webbing, etc.). Bought a scope last time I was there. Helpful staff who also sometimes marshall along at Red Alert itself.

That was a great write up, sounds like an incredible event. Definitely something I'd like to do once a bit more experienced. How did it work for those who were cast as civilians or the ineffective national army roles? If the former, are you expected to act as a bit of an NPC and not do much/any fighting? Do the national army players just take bribes to lay down their arms or run away at the first sign of trouble? Seems like an awesome way to create a real feeling world, if you get cast in a more passive role but were hoping for front-line action is that just part and parcel of participating or was there some flexibility that meant all the factions got a decent amount of trigger time over the weekend?

Went Absolute Airsoft last sunday to bring my Girlfriend to Airsoft for the first time, absolutely loved it. shes really wanting to have a vietnam era sort of load out, of course i gave her the m16 to play with that day, great game day all in all. also bought a new toy after the game day cant way to show it off when it arrives in a few minutes

My family have all gone onto a fruit only diet. I'm fed up with it. The fridge and the cupboards are full of it. It's enough to make a mango crazy!

GHK Kochevnik build is almost done externally. Internals are coming from Asia so they'll take a little longer, and there is a Zenitco pistol grip and charging handle piece in there too. Im also working on making a HPA drum for it since Kinetics are so hard to find and theres no news on a new batch.

I launched a book aimed at 9 to 12 year olds. Managed to hit one of the little shits as well!

I got sacked from my job at the bingo hall. Apparently "dinner for two with a hairy view" isn't the call for 69

I was always very shy as a young man, so my friend advised carrying a pebble in my pocket and squeezing it whenever the shyness took me. Did it work you are wondering. Well I did feel a little boulder. ?

Hi all, I have an issue with my MP5 where its showing the red mofset light. It was all fine when I got it (2nd hand but only fieled twice), used it multiple times in the garden, took it to a skirmish, played the first game no issues. 2nd game get the red light, switch batteries all OK for abit then got the red light again. This continued so I swapped guns for the rest of the day and brought ordered a new Lipo thinking mine were maybe getting old snd not holding their charge properly anymore. New Lipo (one suggested on here) arrives and problem continues, only now the gun is permanently in safe mode. I can put it in to dry fire but the moment you pull the trigger the ref light comes on and it's back to safe mode. It seems to be completely stuck in this mode. Spoke to Eagle6 and DavesCustom who either couldn't help or didn't want to and CombatSouth who said they had another two in the workshop exactly the same. One stock, one upgraded and they hadn't been able to identify the cause so I'm not alone. Has anyone else come across this? And if so has anyone found a fix?

No. Toyed with that a while back, but decided against it.

well, i should be happy right now... finally got my VFC M249 from SWIT airsoft delivered by UPS, but found the customs monkeys have got to it... boxes had been unwrapped, but then thrown back together with just a cross of border force tape holding the wrappings together and most of the inner boxes exposed due to the bubble wrap being hastily thrown around them first parcel contained the M249 and spare mags, every box and bag roughly opened, cardboard packing "frames" clearly disturbed. opened the bag to withdraw the gun, and found the front sight has been broken off. two of the tabs of the dovetail broken off and all the bits thrown in the bag. second parcel contained the external gas tank, again opened. this time the monkeys have used a screwdriver or something similar to pry off the end plate of the box to get to the inside (rather than opening it up using the two plastic tabs that hook onto the pegs on the rest of the box) the end result was that the plastic cover plate has been split in two different places. my brand new gun and its been broken by some incompetent, useless, clumsy customs monkey, i am FUCKING LIVID!!!! P.S @Skullchewer, this was the new toy i was teasing about bringing on sunday... but due to the damage i dont know if i will be bringing it now =/
