  1. The best thing that you can do now is log off, create a new account and come back in with a different name and attitude. In a very few posts, you have given most people here the impression that YOU are an utter prick. Pull your neck in and try to accept that you are the problem here, not any of those who have responded to you.

  3. Leo's Gameplan for Forum Success Step 1: Start over again as a beginner. "Hello all! I've never played airsoft but I'm here to learn new things and increase my knowledge." Step 2: Don't ask to be spoonfed, ask for info about things you've already researched. "I like the look of M4 replicas and the ones by G&G seem to be well-received; how do y'all feel about the CM-16? Is it reliable? What kind of range and accuracy could I expect? Thanks for the info!" Step 3: Take it step by step. Play with a rental, get your own gun, learn to play well, observe and learn. Gain experience. And then start asking about a field. You are not getting any responses to your question because you are asking the wrong question. They're just trying to point you towards the right ones.

    If you dropped into a hairdressing forum and said "I want to open a hairdressing shop, what's the best haircut? PS, I have never cut hair before." what response would you expect? Now, if you'd said "What's the best way to get into airsoft?" you'd have been love-bombed with advice about which sites to play at and which to avoid, what to expect, and people offering to meet up and show you the ropes or let you try out various types of gun. Airsoft is actually a very friendly hobby full of mostly decent people who are keen to help other players out. Give it a try first, find out what it's really like at its best and its worst, and then you'll be in a position to ask cogent questions if you still want to try running a site.

  8. Sounds like you've never played airsoft but want to open a site? Doesn't sound like the right way of doing it. Go and play a few games first, and ask other players what they think, then you'll answer a lot of your questions.

    Hi from france

    Hi, first of all, i’m french and i try most of the time to use my knowledge about english language before to use translator so please, be lenient and maybe patient, i learn every day. So i’m french but i don’t really like frog. I have portuguese origins and i prefere their pastries. I started to play airsoft a little bit before my 18 years old so in 2006. Since i started i never stopped to play but some years more than others. I play mainly in France near Paris but i went to Portugal and Czech Republic too to play. I’m here because you have a really huge topic about the marui mws and i have lot of things to learn about this and somes questions for you ^^. Thx.

    Dude the the fact that you with 19 posts to your name now, are arguing with people with thousands of posts to their name shows that they are exactly the people you should be listening to. The fact you have asked about pistols shows how very little you now about the sport and haven't a clue about how to build and run a sight. However I would like to thank you for creating this thread and giving me and i'm sure most of the members here one of the best laughs we have had in ages.

  15. Yes, it is a shame TM have that on their sight, but no matter, It's only on there temporarily as it is the only one that fits the new G17Gen5 which has, at this time, a unique adaptor plate that comes with it. That is until such time adaptor plates for 'proper' optics become available from third parties... E.g. this... Right side pistol trades are like this:

    Gun picture thread

    Thank you @BreadyC for 3d printing the suppressor for me. Absolutely zero wobble and I'm confident it should work without clipping even on full auto where these tend to go a bit on the brrrrrrrrrrrt side. Last thing I need for it is a leather strap on the front and I'll probably just pay for a real-steel one. Unfortunately the front sight has snapped off at some point (no idea when this happened), but nobody uses the iron sights on these because both the sights and the retractable stock are absolute ass, which is at least consistent with the real-steel mac11 as they're ass on the real one as well!

  18. I'll read the thread later for amusement, but having read your first few posts..... What pews to buy is the last question you ask. You're setting up a business ffs. Location, facilties, insurance, staff, marketing.... all of which are probably easiesr to answer than what budget toy is least susceptible to kids, morons, and moronic kids, plus the few beginners that will eventually buy their own and become the l33t like us. Innit. I've only been doing this a few years, but jeepers talk about going in arse about face. Let alone acting like a total douche canoe with zero sense of humour and skin as thick as McDonald's rice pudding. If you're planning on running an Airsoft site, you'll have to deal with far worse than you've got here especially if ex military types rock up or the local fuzz decide they want to vent their workday stresses (yes I've played on sites like this). To touch on what pew....M4, chunky stock battery housing, quick change spring and abrand that has readily available spares, short barrel, iron sights. Now if you don't mind.... I have several pages of hilarity to read.

  20. I am not following anyone; I have read the thread and come to my own viewpoint. You really do need to step away from the keyboard or put down the phone, go and have a cup of tea and take some time to think about how you have presented yourself in this thread. Then think about how you could have approached it better. However, that takes maturity and an ability to acknowledge your errors.

  22. The fact that you've resorted to childish insults for not getting your own way shows that my initial suspicions are correct. As you clearly have trouble understanding my posts I'll break it down for you. All Your Questions Have Been Answered. Use The Search Function The answer to what is the best gun is very subjective. Asking 10 airsofters this would get you 11 different answers but you'd know that if you weren't wanting to be spoonfed

  23. From experience A lot of sites I have visited use Cyma G36’s Pretty sturdy, decent economical battery consumption Competitive range & accuracy Simple to maintain under £100 a unit trade

  24. You'll have more luck asking 'how long is a piece of string'. This question has been asked ad nauseum, and you didn't even attempt to qualify it with a gun type. At least others start with 'I want an M4/MP5/G36 etc (delete as appropriate) what do you recommend?' So yeah, spoonfeeding.

    @Polyscript chill, some of us have been at this for literally decades, posts like yours are ten-a-penny, & 99% of them never come to fruition, of the 1% that do, half don't last beyond the first year. Hence why some of us can be a bit cynical when we read first posts such as these. As has been pointed out, to get a good understanding you need to ideally be playing, visiting the best rated sites to see how they do it, comparing your potential site to others, what features does yours have & how can it be improved, assuming the landowner will allow alterations. No ones gonna want to visit a flat featureless open field, that's gonna get boring 5 minutes in. Then, assuming you get to the point of opening the "doors", you need marshals, you need multiple game scenarios THAT WORK to keep clients interested, the list goes on & on, come back when you've played a few games & tell us about it & what you've learned, you'll get a much better reception than asking to be spoonfed info.

  28. Ffs is half term over yet? Seriously though, this reads like you've just discovered airsoft and are having pie in the sky ideas about making money from it despite having fuck all clue about what's involved. There's far more to it than just charging people to play and sitting back watching the money roll in. The fact that you think you need that many rental guns shows you don't have a clue

  29. We can have fun with the answers (and with arguing over them), but this isn't a serious question. Setting up an airsoft site is a huge undertaking. Even people who've done it successfully before sometimes just give up while starting new sites. As noted, you'll need a large area of unambiguously private land, explicit permission from the landowner, and if you have any sense at all, liability insurance to cover you when someone shoots Little Johnny's eye out (example from real life) and you get blamed for it. That insurance will come with a set of assumptions and conditions about how you run the site. If you're even remotely serious about this, you'll want to play at several sites first, and take careful note of how they do things: boundaries, safe zones and safety checks, chrono, briefings, and marshalling. Rental guns are way, way down the list of priorities. If you're not prepared to interject yourself into a petty altercation between multiple grumpy men hopped up on Red Bull and adrenaline, then it's best to just enjoy playing airsoft at someone else's site.

    First of all, which country are you in? Before buying the toys you have to find out about the legalities of setting up an airsoft site. If you are in UK and own a large plot of land you can legally allow friends to play but you must have Public Liability Insurance for strangers to play. If your land is near public access footpaths etc then you need to find out what precautions must be taken.

  34. So trusty @ak2m4 has released a batch of their pre-production 34k (assuming on 11.1v) brushless motors, thankfully I had the cash available to buy one, and if you're quick there's one left at £73.50. God know what I'm going to do with it but with the money available I'm glad I've got one. I think to start with I'll enable the 20% speed reduction on it and put it in my DMR and see how I get on. Also I've got a work in progress CYMA MP5K, which I'll eventually be using with 7.4v batteries, so it could be a very good option to put in there once it's ready (I need to fit a GATE Titan v3 first). Anyone else here bought one?

  35. OK, the constructive answer is: forget about buying anything. Find a local site, rent a gun - which will be a generic electric carbine like an M4 or G36 - and actually play. While you're there, ask about what guns, eye and face protection other people are using, and see if you can cadge a go with some other long guns and a gas pistol. If you enjoy yourself, stick with it and do it a few more times. Renting a few times will be cheaper than losing the money on some two-tone that you buy on an adrenaline high that quickly wears off - the classifieds here are full of regret purchases like that. If you're still enjoying the hobby after at least 3 games and 8 weeks at the same site, then you'll be in a position to buy non-two tones, and will have a far better idea of what questions to ask to get something that's likely to suit what you now know to be your preferred play style. Opening your own site is something to think about years down the line.

    Read the room you have been acting like a tool. You haven't been doing your research you have been asking to spoon fed. if you had done any research you wouldn't have asked the question you asked. either actually listen to the good advice you have been given or just go away.

  44. If you like to fantasise about opening a field like me, you can take a look at r/airsoftfields where I dump my research and notes To find out your first gun you need to first find out: 1. your site and your play style, which might favour certain types or lengths, generally speaking shorter for CQB, longer for outdoor distances 2. your personal preference or aesthetic or ergonomic choices e.g. AR or AK or others To find out, you need to go rent a few games at your site, which is required to get your UKARA anyway
