This is a project my team has been building since may 2024, you can follow it's progress on Instagram @K42Killhouse We originally visited the site as they offered a 100m range you can book in lanes and just plink and dial in your rifle ect which was perfect for our team to just have a shoot and a catch up When the owner approached me and asked what additions he could add to the site in terms of airsoft I jokingly said "Build a killhouse" and then he said "OK" Shit, now we have to build a killhouse 😂 So since june/July 2024 we have been designing and chatting and gathering materials and on our weekends free have been building this between the 5 of us with some help from others occasionally We ran out beta test yesterday which involved Metal Ops and Titan Group who really enjoyed the day I need to add, this is Not a typical airsoft skirmish site nor is it a CQB arena, you CANNOT book a walk on spot The killhouse is a hire only facility where your team can hire it out in 3 hour slots or an all day slot to practice running drills, clearing rooms and scenarios, we say it's best to book in 10/12 people and you plan what you do with your time but we found it best to hone in your skills with your own team then the next ttine you rock up to a site you easily flow through buildings communicating with your team We also aim to also put on events in the future for companies to put on training days The costs are £150 for 3 hours for a team up to 10/12 people (£15 each) £400 for an 8 hour all day slot for a team of up to 10/12 people (£40 each) Please check out the Instagram page for build media and recent photos The site will progress, I aim to fill it with random furniture, build a kitchen, beedroms ect lv_0_20250427154537.mp4

A sixth month community order? Fuck me people are getting prison time for hurting words on the internet.

No further questions. Since Bill's letting the side down by selling guns, i had to pick up the slack and buy a (very nice) NGRS HK417 from the classifieds.

Come on, which one of you was it ? 🤬

Yeah, but if we think about it, impersonating a police officer and carrying an imitation firearm around in the open is nowhere near as bad as calling someone a stinky poopyhead on the internet. Ooooooh, there's some nice flashing blue lights outside my window. I wonder wha-...

Twat got off lightly.

Taking his impression kit a bit far?

My AEP is in its component pieces, awaiting yet another Quixotic attempt to make it usable. As stock, they're all about 0.4J / 200fps with 0.2g, maybe a fraction more. As noted, the semi auto trigger response is poor, even when running them on lipo. The cheaper ones that come with nimh batteries have truly dreadful semi response, and given that they're only really usable in CQB due to the low energy, you'll always be at a big disadvantage in any snap-shot duel. They do work, after a fashion, but you'll always be disappointed with them.

Introducing the G17 MOS Gen 6 - now compatible with Alexa.

Oh absolutely, and that's why i have many and always carry one in games, but the choice between spending £60 on a crap one and going without, i'd save the money.

Well that's not true. AEP has ongoing costs in needing to charge batteries and the fact that rechargable batteries have finite charging cycles so they will need to be replaced in time. Consumables are part of play, some are just more overt than others. I don't even think AEP is worth it as a stop-gap "solution" because they're barely better than when I used one 20+ years ago. If anything, I'd say the gap between AEP and GBBP is greater now than it was back then. The other ongoing cost you perhaps haven't considered is depreciation. AEP is undesirable on the brand new market, even more so in the used market as the battery may be in poor charging health and getting spares may be a pain. If I can be so bold to speak for the other respondents, we're saying this because all of these criticisms of AEP are like cases where we've seen no shortage of people who despite advice given to them, they went ahead anyway and bought something they went on to really dislike and became more frustrated trying to resell it.

Brilliant day running our K42 Killhouse Had metal ops and Titan down to run through the site Will start to take private bookings now 👍 lv_0_20250427154537.mp4 20250427_105625.mp4

/thread Mine works fine for CQB or for funsies in woodland. If you want to drop money, buy a second one and dual wield?

Sunday was spent at Finmere, which happened to the the first site I ever played at, at the site's first ever airsoft games, donkeys years ago when I was a spotty teenager. Games only run monthly so I've been waiting for the a pass from the wife on a game weekend to go. Turns out one of the other OG's is now running the place - we recognised each other - he's clearly super passionate about it ... and it certainly shows! Safe to say the place is expertly run with plenty of marshals who are in constant communication, and is attended by a decent bunch of very honest players. There were 1-2 bulletproof betties as there always are but they're very much the exception not the rule. It's a pretty big site but the game design on the day - basically a big control point affair - was such that you could get into a scrap without too much walking about. They used a 2 armband medic rule where players waiting to be medic'd can talk and call out intel to teammates which actually works surprisingly well and means your epic last stand against overwhelming odds gets an audience. I had a fantastic firefight holding off a village area with a couple of teammates against what felt like half the enemy team, it was a great 360 affair with them flanking us on all sides, a well timed pyro had a bunch of them waiting to be medic'd and calling out our positions so we had to keep shifting about, and eventually we got picked off and ran out of medic armbands. Lots of "good shot mate" and "ohh lucky there' from the half dead spectators on both sides. It was proper fun. Downsides... the terrain is a bit basic & everyone is limited semi auto only (pathetic!) but safe to say I'll be joining what looks like a large band of regulars down there whenever I get a free pass for a sunday & recommend anyone who can make it go check it out

I didn't ask for excuses. Now go buy a 417, and tidy your room! 😠

Nightmare. I got an email from them on Friday telling me they had them and they had posted mine out. I received it on Saturday. I just assumed they had received a bunch and had sent them out, but they must have only got a couple in. I’m guessing they’re sending them out in order of who ordered first. Just waiting on my steel slide and barrel being delivered. They’re on there way from Sixmm, hopefully arriving in the next week or so.

I've got these with the same adapter, work well👍 https://www.patrolbase.co.uk/cyma-120rnd-old-school-straight-mid-cap-magazine-for-smg5-aeg-series

My lad had an AAP01 and as soon as any internal mods were done, it all went to pot. Maybe he got unlucky but from speaking to different people when playing, it seesm that quite a few had similar stories

More than ok. They are excellent.

The way my tech does it I’m we use 11.1V. Semi locked as well.

Did yesterday but I don't think I gassed it enough tbh.I just emptied it at the end of the day.

I have bought stuff from them with no problems.

I have loads of spares if you have problems

These seem to be the most customisable pistols out there, try using it in game before you spend hundreds of £ on a £90 sidearm.

I heard a rumour from IWA at the G45 & G45 MOS sales were outstripping every other model and glock were considering reducing all the models that competed with the G45 MOS. Did put much weight in it as it was pub talk. Sounds like my friend might have been speaking some truth. In other news (with the help of Facebook translate) it sounds like the new batch of G17.5s might ship in Japan soon. Maybe on 2nd May?in

Yep, exactly the same as far as getting the stock off. I have one of each flavour (SOCOM, Standard and EBR) so feel free to ask away!

Nope. It's literally just the trigger guard that holds it all in. You'll need to slide the upper forward to clear the front end of the stock from the end plate by the front sight then angle it all upwards to clear the motor. The battery wires WILL snag inside the stock but that's all part of the joy of owning a Cyma M14! I am assuming of course that you have one like this: and not one like this: Because that's a whole other ball game!

They're not used much anyway unless you're carrying a DMR/sniper and have a minimum engagement distance. If you haven't needed one so far, you probably won't unless you change to DMR/sniper. Honestly you're better off saving the money. I take a pistol to every game and practically never use it.

I use a variety of DMRs - AEG, and gas. I have the SSX303 - out the box I quickly found it totally uplayable due to wild inconsistency and rapid drop off in power with cool-down of the mags. Now I have an Airtac shotgun shell HPA adapter in it+ a tridos hop arm to tighten up the accuracy, and it is really superb. Almost silent with a silencer on it too. But - I have just as much fun with an AEG DMR. With the Cyma SR25 it is extremely easy to mechanically semi lock it by adding a large washer between the gearbox and the receiver, held in place by sliding the rear body pin through it. it works by restricting the movement of the selector plate, and is 100% reversible too. Its a long heavy beast though....

"AEP's" with the Tokyo Marui "CMG" gearbox in them, so the MP7's / MAC 10's, can have work done on them to make them damned good (Kingdom of Airsoft in Scotland can do this / sell parts, but is it worth buying a £200 AEP and spending another £200 or so on it?). My son's has a CYMA AEP with a MOSFET in it and my God the trigger response was still terrible, it was the first airsoft item he ever sold on. @Twist under very specific circumstances an AEP can be used in a skirmish, if you're well hidden so see the enemy first and they can't see you, but the real downside is the awful trigger response so you'll never win in a one to one firefight (the AEP trigger delay is enough for a good GBBP player to fire and duck a little).

Due to the physics that allows airsoft to work airsoft guns are not accurate. Higher guns will (unless they are brand new will have had a hard life and shot more BBs in a 6 Month Period than a privately owned gun will in its life time). Good accuracy in airsoft is consistent centre mass hits at 50 to 60m. You can get more out and AEG but you are talking custom builds with lots of fine tuning and testing.

Today was an invitation game day at Airsoft Plantation; 42 trusted, honest and excellent players, including some of the marshals and the site owner, were on site for the day. Oh, and so was I! As I wanted to finish setting up the ICS Masada, I had even more rifles with me than usual, much to the amusement of one of the other players, who also expressed shock that I had something that looked rather like an M4. The first game involved us (the blue team) attacking the village from the hill fort; we had infinite buddy regens after falling back 30m, while the defenders had three lives. Our objective was to set off bombs in four structures in the correct order; these being the Cock Inn, the Town Hall, the Casino and the Border Bridge. Eschewing the direct approach, I elected to swing far to the left and attack the village from the far end, so that I could hopefully strike the defenders in the flank while they battled against my colleagues. This proved to be a good plan as I was able to surprise and take out a number of them; we fought our way into the village, destroying all of the objectives after some really intense firefights. After a quick break to mag up, the game was reversed. The enemy pressed hard; again, there were some great firefights and some great play, as might be expected on an invitation-only day. The highlight of this game for me was that I shot the site owner a couple of times. Yay! The next game required the enemy, who again had infinite 30m buddy regens, having to attack the Mortar Pits from the DEA Base, secure a stretcher from the top of the tunnels and then transport a player on it to the bridge on the other side of the Mortar Pits. The stretcher required four players to move it and, if the player on it was hit, they had to be replaced by another player; we had two lives. Starting off at the front of the Mortar Pits, I engaged a number of targets as the enemy tried to push towards the tunnels; we held them up for a considerable time, although I was eventually hit by a sniper who had moved into the hill fort. Falling back to near the berm which runs down the far side of the Mortar Pits, I became involved in fighting off the attackers who were trying to reach the stretcher. We held them up for a long time, before eventually being overrun as they pushed along the berm. Being hit again, I retired to the trailer at the back of the Mortar Pits to watch the fun, which included red team players attacking each other in the mistaken belief that they were the enemy. Eventually, they got an injured player to the bridge. Luncheon was then taken, after which the stretcher game was turned around. We decided to split the team in two, with one group attacking and taking the bridge, while the rest of us secured the stretcher and transported it there. Our group pushed quite rapidly into the Mortar Pits, overcoming a strong enemy defence before being held up by accurate fire from the top deck of the bus. We eventually overcame this and I was very impressed with one of my shots, which went through a small open window and hit the player behind it. There was then a push to get the stretcher to the bridge, which was completed after a couple of changes of stretcher bearers and passengers. After this game, I left as I wanted to get home to watch Liverpool win the Premiership; fortunately, they did so, which was worth giving up some airsoft time for. As should be expected from such a day, there was some great play and generally excellent hit taking, although there were a few comments about one player. It was hard fought but also great fun and was played in an excellent spirit. Weapons used: SRC T-91 (which looks rather like an M4) ICS CXP APE ACR (Masada) Classic Army ISSC Mk22 (Because someone decided that the world needed a .22 version of the SCAR) ASG XP18 Commander (CO2)

A KS-3 to go with my KS-1 🤷

Somewhat productive day in the SkunkWorks. Started off by modifying a silencer/tracer unit, wasn't so fond of the grooves in it and decided to copy the Specter one, but with 12 smaller flutes. Before: After turning the OD down, it was put in the rotary table and flutes were cut with an 8mm ball-nosed end mill. Bit of lousy paint.. And now it looks so much better. Very happy with the result. Next up was a silencer that i bought for my MP5K-PDW. It's some specific type that i didn't realise at the time, but that didn't matter. I made an insert that'd screw on to the threaded outer barrel, but go over the 3-lug QD and sit closer to the front sight block. Turned from 38mm ally, bored to clear the 3 lugs, threaded inside, with an external male thread to fit a tracer and hex flats milled too. It's secured to the outer body with a grub screw. Finished + fitted:

Considering Magpul has been making them for probably 15 years by now (rough guess), the UBR stock is like hen's teeth in airsoft comparatively. There's a million guns with Geissele Mk16s in DDC though, so it's a good balance in a way.

It’s a British G17:

That's the real issue bro has: he's built his dream gun, which has value to him. He's likely reduced the value of the components.

"Bang off the limit"

Crack, he's smoking crack...... but it does seem to be the pure stuff

Genuine military issue.... L119a2.... So much wrong with this.... It's a 416 stock with bits missing lol

Not so much an airsoft day but more of a nearly finished building our own private killhouse 🤪 Nearly a years hard graft has gone into building our own private killhouse between 5 of us with some help from others, rain, snow and the cold we put this up by ourselves Looking forward to running the beta test day next Sunday the 27th

First thing I thought was it's a scam, who in their right mind would present an ad in the belief it was worth that money, & then rely on that text, even if English wasn't your first language you'd find a way to describe it accurately , even if you just copy & pasted the descriptions from the various retailers websites it all originated from ?

He wants nearly £700 and can't write his own description with concrete specs? Are the mags possibly leaking? Is the eye protection possibly only rated for dust and not Z87/EN166 safety? Is the tactical vest possibly one of those cheap Amazon jobbies?

Luckily, I know a fair bit and am happy to shit on his parade. TL;DR; The "upgraded" hop unit is trash with proprietary buckings which are near impossible to obtain outside of HK. The "Highly Upgraded" Is bare fucking minimum.

So, in essence, he wants almost full retail for secondhand stuff that has no warranty, & also doesn't want you to have any protection as a buyer should it get lost in transit or arrives fecked.

Minus the bitterness, as if the people he's trying to sell to are to blame.

Leez back at the usual.

Going rate is more like £400 with that many WE mags, if and only if, its had all the things done to it (Steel FCG, but not the WELL crap, replaced hop rubber/inner barrel, NPAS'ed etc). As this seemingly has none of that, its probably worth more like £200-250.

They have changed the scam now, asking you to verify your account. Pay attention to who sends the email, and don’t verify just delete.

What kind of bullshit is this? (You better go buy a gun to make up for it.)
