Deadpool (Soft Pool?) 2.0 got some photos yesterday. I'd done a cosplay show earlier and thought I'd get some shots with the shiny new drum Deagles. I'm also making an appearance at LAC's zombie night next month, so I got some shots of the Zombie Pool mask too. Not gonna be to everyone's taste, but I usually get a few laughs (and shot in the ass a lot! 😆)

Maybe that's the goal, don't judge 😂

Now for my Sniper/Bolt action/DMR collection...

Tac 41 on its way, from firesupport. (They were cheapest and had it in stock) They didn't have the recon stock version but I will purchase the separate stock later along with the silencer and a couple of extra mags. Thanks for the advice, much appreciated.

As above, please don't do it. You'd be nuts to do it in the current situation and environment.

The fact that you asked the question proves your not a complete and utter idiot. However if your seriously considering this, then you not far off! SERIOUSLY DO NOT DO IT. If anyone sees you they will almost certainly call the police on you which will probably result in an armed response. At the best you will then spend a few hours in the cop shop while they question you and look into your background. As well as the possible consequences for you it is another mark against airsoft.

I honestly don't think that's the solution, you might get odd looks in daylight... you'll get a cavity search by the polis doing it at night.

I’ve bought a few of the land mines from yourselves which were delivered with great speed! And any questions I had were answered promptly and efficiently! so no after sales issues were had, which is a good thing

I’ve put all gen magpul stuff on my MWS 😂. as the saying goes buy once crye once

I personally wouldn't go for the sport version. They're great entry level rifles, but the Tac-41 doesn't need many internal upgrades anyway, and I'd much rather have that sturdier shell of the regular one. If you go for the sport version and either you or your son suddenly decides to start sniping as a main way to play, it's much better to have a higher quality shell to build upon with internal or external extras. There are more internals you can throw at it to make it better, but they shoot really well out of the box with a few minor upgrades (chub nub works well with the stock hop rubber, which is a decent rubber in itself).

I had built two VSRs (one spring and one HPA, using a co2 adapter in the stock because I hate lines and tanks) to a high level of detail before I made the jump to a pair of KJW m700, so if it didn't work out I knew I'd have two reliable and damn good shooting sniper rifles to fall back on. By that point I knew that sniping was for me, but wanted something a bit different, partially to stand out from the crowd. And my honesty is because while I love them and pretty much only use them (my spring SRS is used sometimes, but really it's just a backup gun I bring just in case my main gun has issues), I've been in this hobby for long enough to know what most people look for in their airsoft guns and gas sniper rifles don't tend to scratch those itches. They're niche for a reason, so I wanted to outline the areas where they fall short to make you aware so you can make the best purchase for you, because they definitely do fall short in areas. If I was looking for the "best" sniper rifle setup for both ease of use and performance, I'd probably make a tricked out Tac-41, SRS or VSR. Spring sniper rifles are the "best" when it comes to what most airsofters want, with gas rifles excelling in other ways; it all depends on what you want from your airsoft guns. I'll happily trade a bit of practicality and ease of use for more immersion and a nicer feel, but also because I took that leap and have been using gas guns for years, I have a deep understanding of how all my gas guns work, so the lower practicality, while a bit of a ball ache at the start of a game day, isn't really an issue. I can set up my rifle according to the weather pretty damn quick nowadays. They can be made consistent enough for sure, and mine shoot incredibly well with no noticeable difference between my gas m24 and my spring SRS when it comes to practical accuracy, but a highly tuned gas sniper rifle will be less consistent than a highly tuned spring or HPA setup and I feel that's just an objective fact due to the way gas works in airsoft, but we are talking some slim margins. For me, I'm happy if my gas bolt actions or DMRs have a 0.1J or less variance in their shots, which I know to some people is absolutely unacceptable for a sniper rifle or DMR. Some people will aim for a 0.02J variance in their shots, but to me I just don't see the point since I find the difference between a 0.1J and 0.02J variance makes no difference to the practical accuracy of it, despite 0.1J being literally 5x the variance, which seems to be a massive jump. Something to remember is that our guns are basically air or gas powered muskets firing spherical projectiles at <2.3J that weigh less than half a gram and have awful ballistics, using the Magnus effect to combat gravity. Regardless of the setup, an airsoft gun will never be a precision rifle; they're just not designed to be one, no matter how hard some people will assert that their airsoft gun is.

I've seen a couple of goontube videos were people have gone for a walk while discussing and wearing a particular bit of kit and tbh it just looks cringy and attention seeking. These chats could just as easily (if not easier) be done at home

Your not selling them to me well.... 😂 But I really appreciate the detail and information. Thanks a lot mate. Consistency seems to be the thing to aim for, for accurate grouping. Learnt that in my airgun days. Rebuilt many over the years, always ensuring i stayed well under the limits. Leaning towards the tac41 now, after some more research. Thanks again.

I'm going to preface this by saying that gas bolt actions are objectively less consistent than springers or HPA sniper rifles, suffer from insane joule creep, the mags are expensive, have low ammo capacity, and weigh a lot. And you need to tweak them at the start of every game day because the weather will affect the power. They're objectively a pain in the arse, but when tuned right they shoot really well, have an effortless bolt pull (there's no tension, all you're doing is priming the firing pin and loading the next BB), are incredibly quiet with a suppressor as it's basically a rifle-shaped mk23, and are incredibly immersive airsoft guns to use since they work just like the real thing. They're also a pain in the arse to find because they're niche. People don't like them because most people aim for power consistency with their sniper rifles and gas just doesn't get the same consistency as spring or HPA when each system is properly tuned (though I'm of the opinion that if you can't hit targets with the level of consistency a well-tuned gas bolt action gives, it's a skill issue) But if I had a budget of £400 and to get whatever I wanted... it's a tough one because the mags are so bloody expensive. It's easy for me because I already have all the mags, but the pre-ban Tanaka m700 (and variants like the m24, m700 AICS, or m40a1) is basically the gold standard and holy grail of gas bolt action rifles. You can find them from time to time, but they tend to be difficult to find as the pre-ban models went out of production well over a decade ago. PPS Kar98k and KJW m700s (police version, NOT the take-down version!) are also good, and tend to be a bit more available and a little cheaper, but it's still hard to get a good setup for under £400 because the damn mags... Basically, gas bolt actions are an investment and don't perform as well, but I just way prefer them because of the look, feel and just how they work (and when tuned well, they perform just fine, with more than acceptable power consistency).

My Bullpup collection, a few springers & ex 2 tones as this was before I got my UKARA... The newest addition will be a WE GBBR L85A2 once the postie gets here.

Welcome

Looks interesting. Any chance you could post a photo showing the yoke as well? Edit: Thanks! Looks the business!

I know there are other threads, but I fear replying to those will not have the impact or visability to those who can make the changes. The classified section has been absolutely destroyed over the past few weeks and months of changes. I know it is all done in the interest of improvement but the unintended consequences are extremely frustrating. 1. Renewing adverts is currently impossible. Both for the For Sale and Wanted categories. 2. I personally really like the previous ribbons of new, expiring soon and random adverts. With a good number in each category to scroll through. 3. Showing completed adverts without knowing they are completed steals my joy from me. The heartache is real. Can we remove completed ads from the ribbons? Or at least show them as completed? Many years ago I was "the guy" behind 2 forums. I know they are a pain in the backside and for anybody doing the background work, I appreciate your own pain and frustrations, and thank you for your continued work.

If you regard that review as being very constructive, I think you need to look up the meaning of constructive. You are sitting at the side and throwing stones. Being constructive would involve engaging with them to discuss the issues that you found and probably suggesting ways of resolving them. Doing that was what led to Ray offering me a marshaling gig at the old site. I sent him an email setting out the issues that we had encountered over a few game days and how I thought they could be overcome. His response was positive and thoughtful. Last time I went to the new site, I had a conversation with Ray about the work being done and why I didn’t see it as positive. I and others have also engaged with his team. I have done the same at other sites, not because it feeds my ego or anything like that, but because I want great sites to play at. Maybe you could engage in a similar constructive manner.

Welcome ✋ Sadly I can't Skirmish anymore either but still collect and plink 😉 I prefer metal replicas.

Regarding Dragon’s Lair, this made me sad today.
