    You've got two posts, & no feedback, irrespective of your situation, as unfortunate as it may be, we try to look out for everyone on here, in much the same way if someone else was selling the same deal & you were thinking about buying, we would happily comment if we thought it looked like a risky transaction, & hopefully stop you losing your money. Don't take it personally, it ain't, it's just some red flags have to be mentioned for the good of everyone.

    Been planning this for a while & happy with the outcome, still need to find a switchset... when I find it. disclaimer... They liked them big in the early 80's, I feel the need to grow a 70's porn tash now tho.

    Headed to a reenactment event last weekend and picked up an original fibreglass heat shield for an M14 (Been looking for one, for years) but sadly no M14 as I broke the Cyma one trying to upgrade it (Oops… may make an appearance as a boneyard project soon 😂) Popped into my local shop yesterday and was informed the G&G M14 could be acquired with some magazines (Regretted selling my veteran but couldn’t get mags at the time) - Collected it from them today and it’s so beautiful 😍 Sadly plastic stock but it doesn’t feel that bad.

    Morning, I'm an old, out of shape player that's just got back into Airsoft. I have a few guns from back when, sadly one which is a 90s gas gun didn't work after the first shot. But my newer ics mp5 still managed to last an entire game. I'm hoping to get it serviced soon as it was a bit low on the chrono. Things have certainly changed from when my friends and I used to head into the local woods and just game there. Already reading up on an the helpful advice posted on here. Looking forward to me next game 👍

    Well if we can have a Watches thread (which I like), then let's have one for geeeeeeeetars too, as they can lovely things to behold and meddle with. I am a pleased-as-punch recent purchaser of this: PRS SE CE 24 in Blood Orange If only I could play it as well as it deserves! (This is my 5th guitar, purchased over a span of nearly 40 years, and I've only just got vaguely to grips with rhythm. Lead is a complete no-no. I suck!) PRS really do a fantastic job on build quality, even on their cheaper guitars (like this one). And it plays so easily, it's really nicely set up straight from the box. I might invest in a set of locking tuners on it, the 9 gauge strings are shifting tune as my 'office' room is a bit of a sweatbox at the moment. And those skinny strings are slicing up the ends of my fingers a bit - though that might be because I'm just playing it too much Anyway, share some pics of your beauties

As has been said, a lot of us are old gits here and what is it with 'music' nowadays, it's all disposable throw-away rubbish that's got even less longevity than Liz Truss. What happened to bands who play actual instruments and write music? That said there's pockets of yoof who appreciate proper music, was very pleased to see some at a recent Smashing Pumpkins gig proper singing along to songs easily twice their age. Even the dance music in the 90's was better!

    Someone clearly doesn't know the definition of slander. Either way, having a low post count and no feedback and then insisting on payment methods where the buyer has no way of getting their money back if something goes wrong are potential big red flags.

    Plenty of threads already on sorting out the power and various issues. It could be the cylinder (doubt it, that thing should be good up to 360mm barrels), it could be the nozzle timing, nozzle length, nozzle air seal, hop unit fitment, hop rubber lips, general compatibility between these parts. Could be the tappet plate, delayer chip, tappet plate spring, tappet plate compatibility with the gearbox shell, number of teeth removed off the sector gear..... All the info we have is the cylinder size and barrel length.. I reckon it's time to write an article on the matter and then copypasta it everywhere....

    I'd suspect the nozzle-to-hop rubber seal. All we know so far is that it's (probably) a V2 box, we don't know the nozzle length, the hop unit, or the rubber that you're using. Maple Leafs have longer lips than some other rubbers, that might help, or you might need a longer nozzle, or it might very well be something entirely different. Airsoft, innit.

    As Dan said, you shouldn't be surprised to see lower offers. There are M4-based RIFs with programmable MOSFETs (albeit with a shorter barrel and handguard) in that price range that people can buy brand new...

    A quick Google search shows these go for £260 new so if it was in good condition and wasn't a repainted 2 tone the 70% rule of thumb would put the asking price at £189. Unfortunately though with the issues already mentioned that's going to knock it down further so is say £130 sounds about right

    Sadly this is in response to his pew suddenly dropping in performance with nothing changing. Learned a lesson though....I'm only changing one thing at a time. Next test is to swap the springs out between his and mine as there is nearly a year on his compared to mine, as its simple and non intrusive, but I'm pretty certain it's something between nozzle and barrel.

I have got a Jaydee Oldboy on order, build slot is about 12 months away yet ! Copy of Iommi's main guitar , made by the same people that make his , can't wait ! It'll be a trip up to Birmingham to collect it and have a look around the workshop.

    The SHS nozzles I bought a while ago were supposed to be 21.3 but they turned out to be 21.5 and change.. Length also depends on the hop unit, hop rubber and inner barrel, some combinations love short nozzles, others want longer. For example the Maxx TE hop I have in my pdw says it wants 21.25mm tops but ran fine on the aforementioned 21.5mm shs nozzle for a while.

    My mate said this after he got one. I got one. I don't regret it one bit 😁 That said, it did cost me almost the same again in mags and you'll want a proper sling mount for the rear. People do say parts are hard to come by, although I've no experience of that as it's not shit itself yet. Going from AEG to GBBR isn't for everyone though, I only used mid-caps in my AEG previously so was kinda used to it but you really notice how often you have to change mags and also how heavy they are in the first few games. One thing it will do though, is speed up your transition to a sidearm in the middle of a firefight.

    Batteries for Legacy VFC MCX?

    Gryph reacted to GON02 for a topic

    I use mock PEQ-15 battery box using this PEQ sized battery (before I switched to deans) as a means to fit a battery. It’s unfortunate that the handguard have very little battery space. Also PTS EPM mags work super well with the MCX if you’re worried about mag compatibility. They are a bit pricey but they are genuinely the best mags on the market 👌

    I agree with @gavinkempsell. There are too many 'issues' (missing pins, ex 2 tone etc.) to ask anywhere new money. £130 is more realistic but expect lower offers.

    G&G LevAR 15

    John_W reacted to Airsoft World for a topic

    We agree. The grip is too brittle and should be either more flexible (nylon or polypropylene) or a rigid engineering polymer like Delrin. Or a decent metal/alloy. It is obvious that the stresses on the bolt that secures the grip is vastly increased with the weight and leverage physics of the stock and possibly the longer upper on the 15” model. There has been no reports of the shorty failing at all, which backs this theory. All three of our failed rifles were on green gas. The first one we filled, the other two verified by the customers, who we know and trust. Plus there were witnesses who confirmed… We did have the foresight to quadruple check all avenues before broadcasting such a damning post. We have no desire for being sued by G&G for one. Secondly, we now have 59 rifles to micro-manage towards a solution. Fun days!

    Time to bring this thread back from the dead As a watchmaker I'm always working on other people's beloved luxury time peices so over the last two months I have launched my own micro brand "Armstrong" I have been using pocket watch movements, for me they are a tad easier to work on and can be housed into wrist watch cases I have been stripping each one down as they come in, cleaning all the parts in my Elma cleaning machine and putting the movements back together, applying the correct oils in all the places that need them and then regulation them on my machine, rather then just grabbing a movement and throwing it in a case I don't quite trust the origins of the cheapest labour of who puts them together and what random oil they use so rebuilding a movement takes me around 4 hours I have also been customising the dials with my own logo, choosing a case I most like the look of and have been pairing them up with a choice of 22mm bison straps Being a big movement the power reserve is 46 hours between winds and it isn't an automatic movement but rather a manual one hence the need for winding I've been making these in small batches to sell to friends but if anyone is at all interested please drop me a message, I sell them for £135 with your choice of dial and strap color

    Ive used alot of turnigy batteries over the years and they have been great. ive got some nuprols and they have been ok, but clearly a lower standard of battery ( not sure it matters for airsoft tho) Its not a good idea to store lipos at a low state of charge, but stored full they will just lose charge over time without any immediate issue. So charge your lipos after use, full or storage level... Ive used storage charging if im storing them.. ie for weeks or months, but not when they are in used weekly etc. Storage charging is just less stressful for a battery in the same way charging to 80% for normal use is less stressful and gives alot more cycles ( like a LOT more cycles) Ive got some life batteries that i have been using for years, 8 to 10 years maybe and they are still servicable, but they have lived a low stress life.
