It was only a bloody sniper rifle.

The family album at Christmas....my other half got me the Glock 45 just waiting the arrival of a Glock 19X and another clean Glock 17 so i can have one without the GTL10 (that she doesnt know about) then in New Year need to decide if its worth adding a Glock 17 MOS......

I hate Christmas. Whoever invented it should be nailed to a bloody cross...

Have a wonderful Christmas day everyone, and all the best for the New Year!

Bit long but persevere lol. Merry Christmas everybody An Aussie named Bazza wanted to buy a motorcycle. He doesn't have much luck, until one day, he comes across a Harley with a for sale' sign on it. The bike looks better than a new one, although it is 10 years old. It's shiny and in mint condition. He buys it and asks the seller how he kept it in such great condition for 10 years. 'Well, it's quite simple,' says the seller, 'whenever the bike is outside and it's gonna rain, rub Vaseline on the chrome. It protects it from the rain', and he hands Bazza a jar of Vaseline. That night, his girlfriend, Shazza, invites him over to meet her parents. Naturally, they take the bike there. Just before they enter the house, Shazza stops him and says, 'I have to tell you something about my family. When we eat dinner, we don't talk. In fact, the FIRST person who says anything during dinner has to do the dishes. ' No problem,' he says… And in they go. Bazza is shocked. Right in the middle of the living room is a huge stack of dirty dishes. In the kitchen is another huge stack of dishes. Piled up on the stairs, in the corridor, everywhere he looks. Dirty dishes. They sit down to dinner, and sure enough, no one says a word. As dinner progresses, Bazza decides to take advantage of the situation. He leans over and kisses Shazza. No one says a word. He reaches over and fondles her breasts. Nobody says a word. So he stands up, grabs her, rips her clothes off, throws her on the table, and takes her, right there in front of her parents. His girlfriend is a little flustered, her dad is obviously livid and her mum horrified when he sits back down, but no one says a word. He looks at her mum. She's got a great body too. Bazza grabs mum, bends her over the table, pulls down her knickers, and turns her every which way but loose right there on the dinner table. She has a big orgasm, & Bazza sits down. His girlfriend is furious, her dad is boiling, & mum is beaming from ear to ear. But still....Total silence. All of a sudden there is a loud clap of thunder, and it starts to rain.. Bazza remembers his bike, so he pulls the jar of Vaseline from his pocket.. Suddenly the father shouted. 'I'll do the bloody dishes!!"

go to the airsoft sub reddit and read some of the post you'll feel a genius compared to the dumb shit that gets posted. most of people couldn't find their arse with both hands.

I know this is an old thread just thought to put my input. I have two 7.24 lipos that have been in storage mode for the past 2-3 years from when I played last using the skyrc charger. Plugged them in recently and still reading 3.81v per cell on both batteries, charged and discharged fine ready for airsoft next year. My understanding storage mode puts the cells to 3.85v No bulging in them either, just stayed within a lipo safe bag.

There's a few that like to fiddle on here, usually while looking at their gun collections😏

Please pay new prices for my second hand crap that I can't be arsed to list what a lot of it actually us

Aye, but it was a bloody good one.

I've been pondering this very same question for months and the conclusion I came to was just to get the VFC. The TM is good, but it's a very old design and I just feel like it's the worse choice, though the TM mp7 still performs really well because at the end of the day it's a TM GBB

Most charity shops don't know the value of vinyl, there's an Oxfam music store in Edinburgh that sells nothing but music media, the guy who works there seems to price everything like it's mint. Unfortunately I'm a Jock & most charity collections seem to be full of Fiddle albums & the Proclaimers.

Can't argue with that, got one myself and my LPs fit nicely in there Sod this Airsoft lark, I'm off to buy some more flat pack furniture... And records I'll never actually put on a turntable 🥸

*Insert Archer phrasing meme here*

Everyone in this thread (self included) is working diligently to set their retirement further and further back. Unless airsoft toys become an appreciating asset.

Who would want a loose screw anyway...

I'm choosing to stay ignorant of my spending, nothing good can come of that knowledge

I hadn't spent much on anything Airsoft this year, and only played once. And then I bought an mws. Haven't used a rifle in years and decided it's the only rifle I have any desire to run and might peak my interest in playing again.

Oh fuck just remembered that I bought a 5.11 CAMS too theres another wad spunked Im better off not playing this “how much did you spend” game 🤦🏻‍♂️

Excellent! And an understandable mistake. I mean, it's a screw, why wouldn't you wind it in all the way?

Okay guys I fixed it and you're all going to laugh at me lol! It turned out that I had over tightened the motor adjustment screw and it had jamed the motor in! I thought it was just a screw to hold the motor in 😆 🤣. The gun now shoots spot on

I had to look back at all my previous posts this year, to work out when I bought stuff, and to remind me of the smaller bits and pieces. Given I've been out of work for 7 months of this year (got a job now, just started a couple of weeks ago, thankfully!), I'm pretty much stunned to find out how much I'd spent... All the new gats were bought either used or from Action Hobbies boneyard RIF's... VFC HK416 GBBR DE M904G JG G3 CA Scarab Rossi Sniper G&G G36 KJW Glock 17 Total: ~£850 I got 'em all at good prices, but still racked up a bigger total than I expected to see 🙃 I so very nearly bought a new VFC MP7 with HPA-tapped drum mag recently. That would have added another £400, but sense prevailed (unfortunately!) Accessories... Balystk regulator Sotac Eotech clone Warhead ammo bulk purchase (10kg 0.28s) m-pact gloves desert boots rucksack mtp combat trousers 416 odin adapter 2x g36 mags 3x 416 mags FCU for DE906 barrel extension masking vinyl spray paints misc stuff for building garden backstop Total: ~£450 Gamedays... ~10 visits? more ammo (0.28's from site, 0.20's and 0.40's from eBay) gas Total: ~£400

The amount we spend on our hobby is a closely guarded secret even from ourselves 😆 Think of the toys as investments. Take care of them and at least you'll get some money back. Some of my best purchases have been broken which I fixed to sell for a small profit. Or occasionally where they increase in value due to rarity etc. I've definitely turned into more of a collector which is getting ridiculous and I keep saying "This is the last one, I don't want any more" but then something comes up which is a great deal, unique looking or collector classic 🤩 I don't have enough wall space to hold them individually and its getting to the point that its a big job to take a picture of all of them 🙄 (I have to do an update next year) At least I don't spend too much on clothing and tactical gear. I've learned to go lightweight My son's inheritance isn't going to be money or property so he'll avoid any taxes 😆

As I’m on a pretty strict “one in -one out” ruling which is governed by SWMBO I’ve actually not done too bad this year due to selling a couple of RIF’s to help turn things over. Wish I could do a pie chart, maybe better that I can’t ! Out went: TM Scar H bundle (£450) APS Cam 870 bundle (£950) TM Scorpion (£100) Incoming: Tm ngrs 416 bundle (£350) GHK SG553 (£650) TM Scorpion (£100) Spent a few quid on bits from Samoon, of which shipping was ridiculous! spare 553 parts cheek riser Manta cover Probably around £200 all in Bought a few ancillary bits for my loadout from Ali Slings x 2 , IFAK , Phone pouch, DNC top, Tigerstripe, HW eotech and a few bits n bobs So around £300 Went to NAF, which isn’t a cheap trip from scotland (say £600) Played about 10 times this year, visited a few different sites too (£450 incl fuel) Ammo & pyro’s maybe £100 Fresh Battery & Charger £75 New boots (£40 on sale) So I recon it’s cost me about £1350 this year Then I just remembered forum purchases!! 🤦🏻‍♂️ Fuck this, I’m deleting my account here , you guys just tempt me! 😂

Let me get this straight .... you were using a G&G mag in an Ares with a Specna gearbox. The nozzle broke, you think it was the follower that's in the G&G mag that caused it. My 308 mags have the same follower, but they are designed to work in conjunction with the 'stop on empty' function and this may be where your issue is coming from as I'm presuming your pew doesn't have this and therefore every time your pew cycles when empty, the nozzle hits the follower. In which case you're probably right in your assumption as to how your nozzle broke.

I can just imagine it. Him sitting alone in his bedroom in his ghillie suit with his "Sniper", "Shooter" and "Enemy at the gates" posters on the walls, surrounded by empty KFC buckets, stroking his rifle and muttering "nasty, nasty. We will makes them sorry, won't we my precious?"

I would like to wish everyone a very happy Christmas and New Year. It's been an interesting,funny and,at times,fudal year of forum shannigins and banter which all makes afuk the place to be. As of now I am in Christmas mode and shall be donning the Santa apron and putting the Heineken hat on and staying up late.(10.30ish) lol. I shall probably go dark for a while as posting up eats into drinking time🍺🍺. God willing I shall be looking forward to another year of Airsoft and gun fun 😁 Enjoy your festiveness and I hope all your wishes come true x P.s No talking about me while I'm gone👍 Regards

Unless your radio came pre-programmed on PMR446 channels (unlikely), I'd recommend when you get some spare time that that you re-programme your radios onto those licence free frequencies. Not that I am personally fussed about licences etc (and lets face it, the Baofengs don't comply with most of the other PMR446 rules) , but as the Baofengs have such a broad frequency range, there is a possibility that your signals could be interfering with other licenced frequencies that are used for somewhat safety critical operations (not the emergency services these days, but maybe e.g. hospital porters, warehouses, public transport, event security etc.).

Oh, that's a new one on me - thanks for alerting us!

The valve is at a wee angle. It has to be to fit the curve of the mag
