I'll just leave this here.

Airsoft and tactics being mentioned in the same sentence makes me (as ex Forces) cringe. As one poster has said, fitness is the best thing you could work on. Just have fun and forget the nonsense.

If autistically fucking around with my guns to gain marginal accuracy improvements is wrong, I don't wanna be right.

Isn't it standard operating procedure for threads to be totally derailed here?

I'd say the power limits are fine where they are. This is because, as others have posted, higher joules doesn't equal more range and one factor not mentioned is that if it did it would make many smaller sites unplayable. Image how boring it would be if both sides just got 10 yards out of their spawn and lobbed shots at each other.

It does, you just have to angle it at 45 degrees and treat it like a 155mm howitzer. 20 minutes later, after hitting a few friendlies, a stray cat and depleting all your ammo you can feel good in knowing you might have actually hit the enemy.

Cos the Vorsk is full (pot)metal which makes it much betterer. Duh......

https://www.usedairsoft.co.uk/rif-s/airsoft-gun-bundle_i88256 Oh can it aye?

you bring what you're good at to the game. some people are good at sneaking, some are good at running about, some can think like their enemy, and some can open up the clockwork nightmare that is an airsoft gearboxx and actually improve it. so yes, getting fitter or learning to hide better is going to help your game, but so is being able to hit people at ranges they can't hit you. none of these are any more of less valid ways of gaining an edge.

Rule of thumb is 60-70% of current retail price +/- depending on condition. pics will help.

It's a vorsk so I'd be surprised it could manage that power level without performing a rapid unplanned disassembly

Ordered an underfolding AK with dong handguard and got a Romanian wire stock AK instead.... Not going to complain!!!

^ I'm more incredulous about this claim. Why would you drop that kind of money on a Vorsk Hi-Capa when you buy something like an SSP5 or a TM Hi-Capa that's better out of the box and the latter has more upgrade options? Does he think the tracer, etxtended mags and HPA adapter count as upgrades?

Tbf you can just set lower limits at your site. CQB sites round my bit have lower power limits. Higher legal ones would be nice for variety, but it is what it is.

Thread has kinda lost its purpose 😂

Ahhhhhh But at least he didn’t list it in the General section 😂

The limit is rolling, as soon as one advert expires you can replace it with another.

New member ✅ Only forum interaction is the listing ✅ No timestamp ✅ No info ✅ Over retail price ✅ Over the legal FPS limit ✅ Oooh, that’s a bingo!

I think the current limits keep gameplay at a close range that encourages action and fun. I think having higher range is good up to a point (see paintball vs airsoft) but the 50-70m limit from a well tuned 1.14j airsoft gun is about right. Also, might be an unpopular opinion, but getting shot at close range by 1.14j hurts plenty for me. Much higher and I'd be less inclined to do CQB.

I am already falling down that path which is why I am going to try and maintain self control.....

it's a slippery slope, before you know it you will be making 4 AK74's with wooden furniture with the 4 different wood types issued over the years or making sure the AIMS side folder has the correct lever or button to fold depending on which version you want to model.

Definently 100% ordered my LAST two AKs, two AK47 with milled style lower receivers and not AKM hopefully they will be decent when they arrive! Then should have matching AKs from each generation with either full or folding stocks from AK47 to AK12

Thanks to a member on here. Now sourced a L107A1 - P228

Oi...

That was one of the reasons Bodgeups stopped doing YouTube

Surprised no one has brought up 'Silo Entertainment', Dutch fella who makes videos kind of in the same vein as Novritsch, mostly sniping but he does some rifleman stuff too. He sometimes talks through his tactics, in the moment thinking and and positioning. He did interesting one a little while back where he tested out a low profile exo suit which allowed him to run faster and save energy lol Someone else who comes to mind for actual tactics and methods, is 'Levelcap' (better known for FPS military shooters) - he has not made an airsoft video in many years, but go through his airsoft playlist, If I remember correctly he was quite good at breaking down what and why he was doing what he was doing in his clips and it was pretty entertaining. It's quite funny, one of the reasons he quit airsoft was that whenever he would go, all the kids would start following him 😂

Purchase failed successfully.

I have managed to manufacture a solution to my issue by shimming the mag catch on the magazine with 1mm of extra material, and sloped the BB catch in the mag just slightly to reduce the resistance when it's being pushed by the hop-unit. The shimming allows it to sit just slightly taller into the hop-unit which neutralises the feeding issue. It could perhaps mean that my RPK-74M is a bit of a lemon and that mag catch is cut just slightly too short despite it having no issues feeding from LCT own mags or CYMA mags. It's a tedious fix to have to modify 10 mags, but a fix nontheless. No such thing as milspec when it comes to AKs I suppose aha.

UsedAirsoft is pretty dire, even when it's not advertising baby naming or HVAC

One of my adverts has already auto renewed, the other 3 "end" in 3 days and 1 hour so I assume once they're done I can finally post stuff into the classifieds again 🙏 I miss being able to use a decent website for adverts, usedairsoft and prefired just aren't the same 😂

100% agree with you mate, it's the outcome I'm expecting. But he has to come to that conclusion himself I guess.

All of the Airsoft under folders are terrible because of how little support the under folder actually has. Unlike the real thing which is a full on bar (I believe, been a while since I’ve had a real steel under folder in front of me) it gets really weak over time and will end up failing. The GHK is probably the only reliable under folder (but still suffers the same issues) but also the most unreliable internals unless you win the GHK lottery TL;DR you got a much better deal lol

Using 2 pistols together looks tacticool but tbh is more hassle than it's worth as inevitably you end up firing both guns at the same target but with badly aimed shots and then there's the issue of reloading. By all means let him give it a go bit I wouldn't be surprised if he decides it's not worth it after a short time

This. Governments are notoriously tight fisted so would pick the cheapest option available (although it also wouldn't surprise me if they doubled the budget doing feasibility studies to tell them what anyone with common sense would already know)

I mean they're using AliExpress gear in Ukraine rn on both sides. Partly out of desperation, partly because something that does a crap job is better than nothing at all.

I love Cal 6mm Gas Blowback Replica it's my favourite model of gun

To stop shrapnel, debris etc from hitting them in the face. Military and police have been using them for a long time

I do get the wish to replicate and differentiate the various weapon types and representative calibers. If we're talking dream worlds then in addition I'd change the fire rates to more accurately match the real world counterparts.

I agree with marcusr. I think we currently have the best balance

The best tactic we Airsofters need is getting fitness and flexibility up 😂

No, he is just desperate to get his gums around Tate’s knob.

Not so much tactics but Bodgeups did some good videos showing what sniping is like in airsoft. All his videos are a few years old now though ad he gave up on the whole YouTube thing. I won't go into detail but his headshots aren't the worst thing he does. I would say he's a cunt but I don't think he's got the warmth, depth or ability to provide pleasure. With airsoft on YouTube you need to remember that 99% of videos are very heavily edited to make the player look far better than they actually are

There‘s a long list of things he’s not liked for all with good reason 😂

Whether it would be OK is a huge unknown. Some retailers swap out springs (and leave the original in the box) to keep them well below site and legal limits. With those that don't, the +10% variance out of the box puts you far too close for comfort in terms of failing a chrono test. The Krytac P90 has a quick-change spring so you can drop in a lower power spring easily. You won't need to remove the gearbox from the gun, let alone open its casing up. Just bear in mind that M*** springs are not completely standardised so you will see variance in muzzle energy between the M100 springs from different manufacturers. On top of that, the compression and air seal within the cylinder will have a big effect so working out the right spring isn't an exact science. M100, M95 or M90 springs may be suitable. Whichever spring you use, I would leave in some head room to account for very small differences between chrono test readings - it's all too easy to chase a limit then find yourself over it when you come to the chrono ahead of a game. The Krytac model is largely proprietary so if something mechanical or electrical goes wrong, you'll either be locked into Krytac's ecosystem with spare parts or you'll need some expensive tech work to get it back up and running. I would also suggest saving up for a chrono for peace of mind so you can go to a game with something you have a good idea will pass.
