  1. I think this topic has run its course. Having opinions about an idea and discussing them is fine but personal attacks are not helpful or really necessary.

    At the risk of throwing petrol on the fire, when challenged about shooting in the garden, you changed to shooting in the house. Are your parents comfortable with this arrangement. If we had kids, the little shits would be sleeping in the garage if they decided to ruin my walls. From reading this thread, the mental image I have of you is: youโ€™re 20% RGB keyboard, 20% Monster energy, 10% edgy teenager and 50% dickhead

    Hi from france

    Hi, first of all, iโ€™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 iโ€™m french but i donโ€™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. Iโ€™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.

  7. I've used LC's engineering for lots of engraving . They do the trades ( and machining) on my L119 builds , he also did the British trades on my Hi power. Never have any worry about them going wrong, always just send the parts that need engraving rather than a whole RIF. Biggest issue is his waiting list.

    @Polyscript You have to understand that our hobby is hated by many people including some in authority and even government. Not wanting to sound like some of the gun nuts across the pond, but we are wary of anyone who might bring bad publicity to the ownership of replica firearms. Past incidents have already brought tighter controls and anything new would bring us closer to an outright ban like in Australia.

  9. I'll second that. I had huge misconceptions before agreeing to taking my son out for his birthday. Got bored watching in the morning and now I'm an unhealthy amount of ยฃยฃ in the hole after taking part in the afternoon. I have no quarms about rocking up to a random field on my own and have always felt welcome. Even when I've gone to a shitty location (very rare) I've still had a good day if only for the banter and camaraderie. YOU have to bear in mind the audience of your question and the way it was worded. As a Gas engineer (fancy plumber) we have secret forums and when someone breaches the inner sanctum with a post equivalent to yours, they either sink quickly....or take the replies constructively and thrive. It is part of the filtering process. Well at least it is to us Gen X'ers and before. If you're a millennial or above. Welcome to our world. We don't give a fuck. Now .... welcome to the fray. Enjoy the hobby for what it is. If you can make a successful business out of it...Fantastic, the more sites the better. Hence the comments of go to some and see how they do it. You haven't said where you are, but of you're close to London, Spec Ops, Skirmish High Wycombe, AWA, Reformer are all decent sites. As I've said is a recent post. Decent facilties make a difference... tea. Coffee, decent lunch, clean toilets, free/available drinking water are, IMHO, essential.

    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.

  14. So i recently picked up a tokyo marui type 89 gbbr and I love it but ive seen multiple people have the nozzles eat themselves using green gas and heavy bbs and even some nozzle issues in japan with the correct gas. Given that spare nozzles for it are basically unavailable and I dont like running guns I cant get spares for ive started modeling spare nozzles for it. first test is printing now. It will no doubt require tollerancing and tweaking before it works but its a good start. And yes I did forget to put the slope on the very tip of it for feeding bbs XD. Ill put it in with a file for this version and fix it for later tests

  16. No; you are demonstrating that you are thick because you seem to be unable to differentiate between two different situations. Nobody here has bullied you; you have behaved like a prick and have received a robust response. If you cannot cope with that, you will never cope with running an airsoft site, where tempers sometimes run hot and you will sometimes have to deal with confrontation.

  17. Don't take it the wrong way.... I was considering the OP's apparent thin skin and some of the banter I've enjoyed both in and out of airsoft. Particularly a stag do where there was only two of us who hadn't served. That was a punishing but fucking hilarious two days. ๐Ÿคฃ

    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.

  22. 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.

  26. I picked up my M16A2 from the tech today, now has an aster for burst mode fitted. Ignore the 416 pistol grip though, I uh... Thought I had one, and had already used it on another build so it's a stand in for testing ๐Ÿ˜… Dead happy to have a cool replica. Just have a few small parts to change. It's surprisingly quite comfortable and not too front heavy. Can't wait to field it next month!

    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!

  28. Since the bolt is plastic and weighs basically nothing this is the result. Shooting around 340fps with the longer barrel. This is on a we tech glock 19 mag. also added a magnet to keep the charging handle forward. MOV_3522.mp4

  29. so recently I designed and printed this little smg / pdw that uses glock internals. Its very snappy and works well though I will be tweaking the aesthetics a lot. Here's also another bit from the new thing im prototyping. Im sure you can guess what that is for.

  33. I've found a 30w Raycus galvo fibre laser for a reasonable price. Since most of my toys are the cheap non trades versions I would do my own first of course (after lots of testing ๐Ÿ˜) Yes, I would certainly only offer the service to others after extensive testing. They do have a preview feature to make sure the placement is correct so I'm not worried about that. Yeah, it would definitely be MUCH easier if people could disassemble the parts to be worked on. No, I couldn't do curved parts. Actually I think the hardest part would be making the pattern files for the various trades and logos. (Does anyone know anywhere to download images or vector files for various trades?) Thank you guys for your thoughts.

  34. I sent him my M14 to get engraved and unfortunately it did end up getting messed up due to him only being able to engrave flat surfaces. At least now heโ€™s found out his limitations ๐Ÿ˜‚ He was an absolute gem to deal with and canโ€™t fault his representation.

    @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.
