  1. I don't like players who throw tantrums over getting hit by BBs while playing BB wars, this is true. However, not all players I don't like throw tantrums over BB wars. And I said I only shoot the tantrum ones, but it seems that I, like @Colin Allen above me, assumed you had at least basic reading comprehension, so I apologise for my wild assumption. If I don't like a player but they're otherwise cordial, they get the same treatment as everyone else. Even non-hit takers get a peaceful walk back to spawn from me (when they actually decide to take one!) Hell, a lot of people who are good friends with each other that I know will shoot each other in the legs or the back or some other not-head-not-nuts body part while heading out to games because it's BB wars and we're a bunch of overgrown children running around the woods shooting each other with toy guns at the end of the day. It's never vindictive or some horrible full auto hose down, it's usually with their pistols that they otherwise never use in game. I use my pistols a lot because MED and overgrown woodland areas at the sites I go to, but I swear a lot of my not-sniper-not-DMR friends only use their pistols to shoot puddles and each other on the way out to games ? Maybe consider a visit to the proctologist for that stick; it seems to be pretty firmly wedged in there.

  2. Update.... So, these next two have been on my search list for a very long time. So, first up L131A1.... (Glock 17 gen 4) So this pistol eventually replaced the ageing L9 browning, with the gen 3 being in service with the sas before that!. Mine, is the very early fully traded and hard to find Stark Arms/VFC gen 4 glock. What makes this stand out over other brand glocks, is the markings!. So the later umarex/vfc , tm/guarder and GHK glocks, all come with the U.S glock markings. The Stark Arms comes with the correct European markings and German proof marks as found on the real L131A1. The only other brand close to this is the early WE fully traded glocks. Only issue with the WE glocks are, that the lower and upper look and marked a gen 4. But the recoil spring is still the slim Gen 3 type. I have also fitted real sights and lanyard adaptor, along with a replica QR code as also seen ok British glocks. Only thing left to do on mine is get the L131 and NSN details engraved on the lower. Top 2 pics are from the real L131 Last pic is mine. 2nd one is L104A1 (HK69) This was brought in for use in Northern Ireland to fire smoke and baton rounds. Then was later used in Iraq. And believe it still in use at the moment, as one pic was posted of it in use last year with a red dot as a rear sight. Mine is the hard to find original CAW HK69 When I got this, was sprayed all green. Took it back to normal, then weathered it. Also fitted real sights. In the process of getting some parts 3d printed to get it running again. Then looking at getting correct markings added. Top pic is of it in use. Bottom is mine.

    Rule 5 update

    Tackle drew 3 and 9 today from a disgruntled would-be seller. He wasn't too happy about not being treated with kid gloves for his inattention and said it would be a pain in the arse to write his listing back up and said he feels encouraged not to post again. Surely you don't threaten moderators with an easier job looking after the forums?

  5. I apologise; I assumed that everyone here had at least basic reading comprehension ability. He was tracking enemy players running across; therefore, he could make out his targets. The slow guy, who should have got out of the line of fire asap, was at fault.

  6. Same here. What did it for me was having 3 fully charged nimh batteries die by lunchtime on a particularly cold and snowy game day, whereas the lipo battery a mate lended me lasted the rest of the day despite being a similar Mah and smaller in size. The best description for AR platform I've heard is that it's the airsoft clitoris. Every cunt has got one

  12. I try not to judge a man/woman/otherwise by immutable characteristics like their age, race, culture, lack of socio-economic status, skin pigmentation, physical/mental divergence, their (age appropriate) bedfellow(s) or their god(s). But turning up to a site with those is a choice, and you chose poorly....... Same with 2-toning something rare, dont care if you day-glo a common gat we all gotta work around the rules but you show up with a lime green ppsh and it's not a bit, well, that's a choice........

  13. Had my first blood drawn today by an enemy sniper, called my hit and after that game I found him and congratulated him on what was actually a fantastic headshot. Two games later the same guy worked his magic and domed me almost symmetrically with with the same grace and elegance as the first time but without the blood. All in all it was a good day, sorry yours (5 years ago) was a bad one.

    I resent that! Hot hatches are perfectly practical and affordable, if slightly showy, cars. ? It's more like a hot hatch that's had its wheels cambered to such an extreme angle that it looks like a fawn trying to stand just after it's been born.

  20. I know he had a limited view and I haven't missed anything; he was shooting at targets he could see though his scope. Mr Slow was at fault as he did not remove himself from the line of fire. What do you expect the shooter to do? Take his eyes off the targets and check that some random Meal Team Six floperator isn't taking a leisurely stroll through a firefight? As the site owner at AP always says in the morning briefing, if you are hit, it is your responsibility to get out of the way; it is not the shooter's responsibility. I appreciate that you are struggling to understand something so simple, but do not accuse me of dishonesty when I point out why you are getting it so wrong.

  21. Yep, but unless some real harm is done, dropping guns, spitting out dummies, or stopping play mid game over a handful of stray bbs isn't gonna happen. Sure, find a Marshall & report what is perceived to be a problem, & there's 3 likely outcomes: 1. He'll chuckle & tell you that it's fast moving warfare, & shit happens. 2. He'll make an announcement before the next game, but it will warn everybody, dead men included, to be more switched on. Or 3. He'll tell you to grow a pair. Sites will favour the many over the few, financially it makes sense, even if it's morally wrong, that's why so many site have home team regulars that are impervious to hits, mag restrictions, or even chronos, money talks.

  22. i agree and understand that's the way it is ,telling the marshal is the proper way to handle it

  23. Dude, take a chill pill, we play a game where people get shot, me included, & if I'm a dead man walking ill do my best to not walk through a firefight, but if it erupts around me I'll do my best to move aside or take cover (with a hand up), & if I'm inadvertently hit, accidentally or not, I take it, after all, I'm a dead man, I can't influence the play in any way, & everyone has paid the same to be there, roles reversed I'd keep playing too. As for marshalls stepping up & "punishing" people, good luck finding one with enough backbone to step in, or even identify a problem, they're usually huddled together in groups or on their phones.

  24. they’ll take very similar o-rings to the gen 1 mags - I’ve repaired all of mine using the nitrile o-rings off AliExpress. https://a.aliexpress.com/_EwqFA8M if it’s only the bases leaking, you want the 21 x 2.4mm o-rings. You can find them on AliExpress of a couple of quid for a pack of 10. They’re a b*stard to get back together as the repair o-rings are approximately 0.4mm thicker. However, so won’t leak again as the fit is so tight. alternatively you could try soaking the OEM orings in boiling water. I find this is an urban myth personally… but several people swear by it. It apparently expands the oring back to its original size.

  28. Now they've followed Rule 5, I'm curious how £650 aligns with the ~70% rule, especially when BBs from two of the bottles have been used, the pistol is a two-tone jobbie and the KWA gun is missing its flash hider. I get there are tracers and a kydex holster but that price looks optimistic.

    There's been a LOT of requests for Viva to make it into a full size Mini 14, I'd certainly say that's the better option. We'll see how open they are to changes. I've asked them to make a Bren gun for the UK market. Considering they already make a ZB26, I'm hoping they'll accommodate...

    You got my hopes up for a second. it's not Mini 14 just a KC-02 with a stock kit. Some one on this forum did it with a real steel stock.

  31. Sounds like you're one of those "I yell at 14 year olds when they shoot me with more than 1 BB" kinds of players. I'd argue it's more unacceptable to yell at people and throw a tantrum when you get hit by BBs while playing airsoft, especially when walking in the middle of a firefight.
