Everyone, I am sure has heard of the Vortex warranty. Well, it's just awesome! I know it's only a little thing, but I lost my elevation turret cap in a game. Haven't thought about it until it's come time to sell the scope. Popped them an email and they're sending a replacement out the same day I spoke to them! Now that is good customer service. I've got Vortex on all my main rifles, for good reason 😄

Made this chart just for a fun way of scoring your accuracy Also potentially useful for extrapolating your accuracy at long range from a close up target like 5 meters Post your rank 😛

- Mahatma Gandhi, probably

To be clear, I have to hit the target, right? Yeah, I'm out.

Ha I used to make so many weird guns, mainly just to wind up my mate Gaz (first one has 5 different guns in it) What about this I made 😂

First Aliexpress parcel arrived today, so hopefully the others will arrive this week too. This one was only £91 including taxes because of the sale they had last week. Looked through it and it's crystal clear, but need to get a battery for it so I can see how the illumination works. Zoom looks nice, though I can only really tell this once it's on the rifle because holding it my hand on 6x zoom is interesting, but the reticle is exactly the kind of reticle I wanted. Came with exactly the scope mounts I was going to get separately too... and they're too low so it won't go on my m14 as it rests on the rear iron sight, so will need to pick up some mediums 😂

Cheap RIS Forend from the Classifieds and some LaRue style index clips for my Specna M4

I once went to a safari park and there was a rhino pissing. We did another lap and the rhino was still pissing. True story. This is more piss taking than that rhino.

Because of the hot weather over the next few days, my boss has said we can bring shorts to work. Jack Daniels it is then!

Very important things those, you need to guard your tigger!

Let’s start a thread that will make purists cry. this one is mine.

My gun only shoots 50M but often the opposition are around 60M away, please advise which Maxx parts my gun needs!?!?!!?!!

That shortened G3 with wood furniture is gorgeous

Added a cheap RIS Front End from the Classifieds, some LaRue style index clips and an AFG2 foregrip to finish it off.

That there's a subtle difference between using your debit card to pay an invoice (where the chargeback scheme applies), versus making a direct bank transfer payment (where you're generally on your own). This isn't victimblaming, just pointing out that the difference will matter to your bank. I'd also agree that you've complicated things by punting it on. I'd be very surprised if your your bank is able to reverse that payment - I'd actually be a little concerned, as it would seem to be a scammer's charter for rogue purchasers if both banks are prepared to simply take your word for it.

Wow. This is like anti-advertising. Antvertising? Horribly fascinating though. Now I'm wondering if there's actually a niche for so-bad-it's-effective Idiocracy style marketing.

Oh this could be very interesting! If nothing else, to benchmark the real world accuracy of the average airsoft rif. I, and I suspect many others, are possibly guilty for the Internet, you tube, and airsoft mate driven nonsense of "this gun here, and indeed all my guns, shoot like absolute lasers" nonsense. With the result of coming from such interactions feeling a little inadequate in terms of teching skills or our armouries capabilities.

Lloyds, I made sure I said private seller and bank transfer. She said it doesn't matter who or what it is etc, we will dispute it

May I present my APS CAM870 AOW … with a very comfy stock

What about Generation Kill?

Typically AEGs will find longer barrels more difficult because of air volume issues. The gearbox only has so much air to push through the barrel, so if you have more barrel volume than cylinder volume your BB will stop accelerating and start decelerating while it's still in the barrel. However, if you have more cylinder volume than barrel volume you will end up wasting a lot of air as there is more air to push after the BB has left. This makes it a bit louder as you get a more noticeable pop as the BB escapes the barrel and the air expands, but it can also have some issues that I can't remember. All I remember is discussing it with a tech and he told me what happens but I can't remember exactly what he said, I just remember it sounded like a valid issue that I wouldn't want. For HPA it isn't such a problem because you can typically adjust your dwell depending on how long your barrel is, allowing more air to released per trigger pull in order to properly fill the barrel. A properly volumed HPA setup will joule creep like a gas gun. For gas guns, the problem with longer barrels is joule creep. With a gas gun the BB will constantly accelerate through the barrel as the gas constantly expands through it, much in the same way a bullet will accelerate more through a longer barrel than a shorter one. So when you have a heavy BB, which starts and moves slower than a lighter BB at the same energy, it will have far longer in the barrel to accelerate and will leave with a far greater muzzle energy than a short barrel due to the relative increase in energy imparted through the longer acceleration. All that said, you don't need a long barrel to have a "DMR" as it's just a designation in airsoft of a rifle that is semi-auto locked and typically has a higher energy limit and an MED. However, I'm a bit of a purist and am of the belief that a DMR should at least look like a DMR, so a 14.5" or 16"+ outer barrel is a must in my opinion, and then I'd just get an inner barrel that will go all the way through it. If you're going HPA, the only thing I would watch out for is joule creep, however you can easily fine tune the power output by tweaking the psi on the regulator to make sure you're within your site's limits.

Black hawk down got to be

I vote Band of Brothers

Your gun is fine but you need longer arms.

Tour of duty of course

Isn't the G3 a copy of the CETME?

The point I am making is that you originally stated that you used a debit card and then stated that you told your bank it was a bank transfer. The one time I use a debit card, I get done like this mate, lesson learnt, will see what they say Lloyds, I made sure I said private seller and bank transfer. One or other of those statements has to be incorrect.

Simple cure, make sure you stack the bb’s with the lower one on the right, works perfectly then.

I'm thinking of getting a Type 89 as well but am really off put by the nozzle issue and lack of replacement. Are you still able to make the 3D printed nozzles and if so, would it be possible to purchase a few from you? Thanks.

One last thing...

I guess I got lucky, package cleared customs examination late last night and is on its way to me. Delivery today or most probably tomorrow.

This seems an option, thanks! I'd not come across them before. Still a touch on the pricy side, but might be a go'er. I am rather wedded to the 'proper' external knee pad sections, as my knees are made of cheese these days. I had a look on eBay for the genuine crye stuff, but sadly it's multicam or nothing (I should have mentioned that I generally go for anything but). Yes, years ago I actually went to the trouble of unpicking the knee pad sections of some arktis trousers and restitching them lower onto the leg. The joys of life before kids when I had such time to burn!

Yet now you are saying it was a bank transfer?

Lol, I considered commenting on it that it would be wasted on many here👶🍼

@Tackleyou laughed at my Leo Sayer joke. You are officially old.

Just met Leo Sayer in the local pub. He said "You look like Sam from Cheers " He made me feel like Danson!

Strike Industries Fang Billet

As many have said above... site specific. e.g. at my local site everything has the same fps limits (doesn't matter if the pew is set to single shot only) except bolt action.

Guys, check out their YouTube channel, I personally recommend the masterpiece about gun flu. @jiadyi.airsoft your HORRENDOUS marketing seems to be targeted at very impressionable children and/or morons. There's very few children on this forum. As for morons, well, you've got us there. Your marketing videos, combined with your extremely evasive answers, make you seem questionable, at best.

OK, good luck with that, it's quite unusual for a bank to get involved with a private sale, especially something of such low value. But keep us informed, really hope it works out, maybe they're taking a different stance. Out of interest, what bank is it ?
