Interesting new product round-up
TheFull9 and 2 others reacted to mightyjebus for a topic
aside from AEG's, here's a few interesting new bits of gear from China Mexican Multicam G3 top and trousers Uniform there's quite a bit of MMC on aliexpress at the moment including rigs, soft shells, baseball caps etc. jacket rig baseball cap fast helmet cover Tequila optional. was tempted to get a set just to confuse 95% of airsofters but just picked up some British OPFOR MTP which will probably have the same effect.3 points -

Finally got a stock alert on a nice hi-capa outer barrel in the colour I wanted, so I jumped on that. Lucky I did, because I got the last 11mm to 14mm suppressor adapter in black! Hi-capa is basically complete now, because while I have an RMR mount for it, I found that the RMR sights were impossible to adjust low enough, so the fiber sights will do. Ready for some sneaky sneaky, however it's still somewhat noisy because it's a snappy GBB pistol with a metal slide. But it feels delightful to shoot, and it's a replica of a suppressed .45 so it tickles my immersion nerd / filmsimmer side. Easily my favoured pistol now and will for sure see use because I almost always have an MED. Been a long time advocate of GBBs as sniper sidearms.3 points -
Winter or summer player
TheFull9 and 2 others reacted to Cannonfodder for a topic
To me Sir Ranulph Fiennes said it best. There's no such thing as bad weather, just inappropriate clothing. I play all year round and I don't mind a bit of rain etc as the bad weather can add an extra element to games, eg reduced visibility or the rain covering noise. Just dress for the conditions. I understand though if others would rather stay home when the weather is bad Alternatively bad weather can be a good excuse to visit a cqb site if possible. Wht worry about the weather if you're indoors3 points -

I must figure out how to get to Splatoon, looks like a decent days shooting. Red Mist 6: Operation Foxcub (Gunman Eversly, camp alpha) weekend filmsim, coldwar gets hot An amazing turnout for the Saturday, around 60 split over Warpac (DDR Section + USSR section and Nato forces (Rifles had a whole 3 sections plus us 'paras' with a couple of tag alongs from the 55th. A great day's shooting and story followed by a decent night drinking and social. For the Sunday numbers for both sides dropped but not crazy, the paras used: a G3 (ICS, metal, heavy) and pleasure to shoot a Fal which again super smooth and well hopped and I was using my (toy weight) mc51 which I really need to replace some parts on, maybe look at hop options, likely try and improve air seal.2 points -

Ares 686 2" & 3.5" CO2
John_W and one other reacted to GraniteFraggle for a topic
So a quick & dirty report now my 3.5" is here, thanks to Red Wolf. The bad - no manual or hop adjustment key. No markings, unless you have them done yourself. My local guy is primed .... The good - everything else! Hop is a bit fiddly to set - clockwise for more, anti-clockwise for less. *EDIT****** Chrono'd again with my Acetech 6000 Mkiii - I thought the values were way too high. Its absolutely beautiful - from the grips (unstained in my case - which is fine, I'm looking forward to working some bees wax into her), to the spinning chamber action (no other revolver really touches this) is stunning. Trigger pull I can't give you figures on but having shot a lot of real steel (pre-ban in the UK) it feels right. Very smooth, very smooth indeed. Its loud - anecdotely similar to the wingun. The shells make a lovely sound if you slot them in one by one into the chamber. Consitency is way and above wingun - see FPS below as a result I would happily take and get a body shot at 30m, maybe 40m. I need to test her in the field really Looks like that new shell design has paid off. Shells are lovely (R-P 357 Magnum - "Remington-Peters" 357 Magnum). I haven't tried the moonclips - I'm running her with HKS 586-A speedloadeers on my belt as a secondary sidearm loadout. Love the way they resemble a copper plate bullet. The shells fit in a wingun speedloader but .... you end up with some shells in your chamber/some not. I could play around with them and work out how to get everything lined up ... but why dress lamb as mutton? Fits my 686 leather holster with thumb snap for the hammer perfectly. Hops .3s with no problem - I think you could go heavier but I don't see any advantage as 0.3 means I use the same weight in all my sidearms. For my use, I think the 3.5" is a perfect balance between portability,weight & accuracy. I'd love to see what the 5/6" versions are like (possibly with a different finish although the silver is really special) & the other grip options. The longer barreled models are going to be (legal!) hand cannons I think. Quite excited by the prospect! Very happy with her - I'd say this is by far & away the best revolver I've used in a long line from Tanaka, Marushin & Wingun. Shells are a must for me - you really cannot beat the feel & buzz of using them in combat. Hopwise this is best I've seen, closely followed by the old 8mm Marushin, Tanaka SAA adjustable then coming a fair way behind, Wingun. Further behind still, Tanaka fixed. So 6 shots, .3 ASG Blaster Devil BBs, 19°C, slow count of 5 between shots. 1: 227 2: 235 3: 229 4: 230 5: 231 6: 233 Average = 230 which is 282 FPS with 0.2 equivalent. So sight legal & really consistent Some rubbish camera phone pictures attached, full review post skirmish day (or 2) to follow.2 points -

Hi guys, just to let you know there's a new moody scam attempt going on, appearing to target sellers & purporting to be from the forum itself, telling sellers their item has sold & to click on a link within the message to complete the sale. Seems to be originating from Russia, not sure what happens if the link is clicked, probably a trojan horse type virus to mine your info. Don't fall for it, obviously if you get one let us know so we can ban them immediately, here's a screenshot of the kind of text you'll receive:1 point

Colin Allen reacted to Jaylordofwaargh for a topic
They have loads of (free) rental kit! DDR were around 12-15 players similar to the USSR. Ben and Callum (and Josh) are passionate about the theme, as such do ask for particular kit, camp and clothes they are a little more understanding about. So for Nato it's pattern 58 and no rails with actual barrel length (they would of course love us all to have SLRs) but along as it passes the 10m rule, so scrimmed rails...period sights rather than red dots and TACTICAL everything. There are a few guides on Facebook (not the website frustratingly), The organisers were amazed at numbers with both familiar and new faces. We found WARPAC seemed to be operating in larger sections, so if they found a nato patrol warpac would be through them but if we were able to dig in and communicate another section would be in support soon enough to win the fire fight. On the Sunday, they operated differently and seemed to have the whole team on tasks...which was....interesting1 point -

I play all year round, but I am 100% more of a summer player. Everyone calls me a fair weather airsofter because I don't like the wet (mostly the wet), and I'm not as keen on the cold. And then when the summer heat comes around the shoe is very much on the other foot and I start ridiculing them for being wimpy over a little bit of warmth as this country very rarely gets to temperatures that I can't play in. Usually has to be accompanied by high humidity. However, I did used to play airsoft in the south of Spain. We'd have to stop game days there at lunch time during the summer because that was simply too warm to play. However, too warm being "hey, it's almost 40 celcius" instead of "it's just over 20 celcius"1 point

I think as I've gotten a little older i've lost my patience for muddy fields and rainy days... having said that I played at Plantation a couple of years ago in December on a crisp sunny day when it was around -1 to 0 all day and the ground was frozen solid, it actually made for a great time. As long as you're dressed up and have a good anti fog system. Would take those conditions over slushy mud anytime. The aesthetics of the site were great too, everything was frosted over pretty much all day.1 point

From the reviews I’ve read/watched since the purchase it ‘appears’ it’s a cheap reproduction of some of their ‘better’ models. Ive read a few reports that some of their stuff is quite decent so I can take your word for it, but this combo is not great.1 point

Ok, back now…. This is what I’ve been using and been happy with it. It’s had the mosfet trigger upgrade as my heavy handedness caused the OE trigger to start firing on its own.. Very recently I purchased this… And was told about a ‘fantastic scope & maginifier’ about to be released and would sell out quickly so thought I would buy on recommendation…. So here it is…. The focus ring on the magnifier barely makes a difference to compensate for my dodgy eyes and the parallax error in the red dot is horrendous, absolutely zero target fix when you move your eyeline. The recent YT review basically confirms this. So I’m happy to take this on the chin and buy something more suitable, so thank you all for your replies, much appreciated ? Do you use a particular retailer for your purchases? ??1 point

The only brushless motors that come with unidirectional bearings (effectively eliminating the need for a mechanical ARL) are the Solink Advanced and V5 motors (the latter is also known as G5 under Gate's branding). Unless using the aforementioned motors it's utter bollocks to remove the ARL, so is a mechanical decocking feature like the one found on ICS guns because all these do is damage the tappet plate. It's much better (and safer for the gun's internals) to have an electronic decocking feature where the gun fires one shot with maximum AB to stop the piston fully forward.1 point

Rule 5 update
KermitTheFud reacted to Tackle for a topic
Afternoon guys, while we appreciate some of you have embraced the recent rule changes with no issues, we're still getting new members that are failing to read the rules (& probably won't read this?), as well as a lot of existing members that are renewing ads that existed before the December 1st rule change, but haven't updated their pictures with at least one picture showing items for sale & the inclusion of a piece of paper with the username & date handwritten on it. For anyone who can't be arsed, don't worry, we'll also get to the point soon where we can't be arsed to send reminders, we'll just nuke the threads, never to be seen again. What also needs to be considered is that some of the notes are written in the smallest handwriting with pens with tiny tips, we don't have spectrum microscopes to blow them up in order to be able to read them, so bigger writing with something like a sharpie marker would be great. If in doubt, consider if you were the buyer & you couldn't make out the name, you might not bother enquiring further. Everyone needs to get on board with this, irrespective of time here & forum feedback, we've seen a marked decline of scam attempts reported so hopefully this is starting to make a difference. Thanks for your continued support ?1 point -
