Forgot i ordered this, and wasn’t meant to (as I’m now leaning into RS shooting which is eye wateringly expensive) but being a TM fanboi is hard work.

Did the NVG course with JBG on Saturday at Epsom tunnels Great day, lots of experience gained, even got a sexy photo

This fun little mini colt. Looking forward to trying to get a kill with us in a skirmish. Perfect to conceal in a pocket.

What makes me chuckle even more is that Ultrair isn't the best choice now it's a wee bit nippy outside. People should be looking at "red" or "black" gas now for more consistent cycling. Firesupport makes the seller's case look even worse as you can buy 6 cans in bulk and have change left over for lunch from the £50 the seller presumably wants for all 5 cans.

Tbf, when i was running the dragonuv i found myself doing that to the point that i basically gave up running the scope at all, not helped by the clip on cheek riser making it impossible to get your head low enough for the irons. But at least that was a quick release mount....

Scope mounts set for a giraffe 😳

E&C took some inspiration from gel blaster ATM who I guess too inspiration from AAF. Due to get some in hopefully before Christmas - nice to see something different.

First session at Blackstone, impressive site, superb layout and facilities. A few stupid players though, lots of team killing (which I didn't mind as their rule is if you TK then you are dead not the person you shot, which I like). Too many HPA users for my tastes, and whilst they do chrono and tournament lock the guns, at the range of engagements being so short there were a number of nasty bleeders, including one I caught in the ear and my mate took on in the cheek despite wearing full face. HPA just retains its energy too well for such short range. Biggest issue I had all day was some twat thinking that a 'Knife Kill' was waiting around a corner at the bottom of the spiral stairs then shoving me in the chest as I came round the corner. He did it twice, he was told in no uncertain terms there would not be a third and I reported it to the Marshall team. Got loads of kills just by keeping moving through bottlenecks and getting behind the enemy. MP9 ran brilliantly. Will deffo go back maybe on a week day when its not as busy.

Storm grip and Diemaco stock arrived. Now the only question is - do I paint it or not?

In my never ended quest for g&p parts got this transformer upper set in a boneyard box..

"Hang on mate, don't shoot me! I've got to take my scope off so I can flip up my iron sight!!!!"

Unity's new OMNI mount design is pretty cool.

Scope on the handguard https://www.usedairsoft.co.uk/other-equipment/other-equipment_1/asg-5-x-ultrair-gbb-gas-570ml-power-gas_i89481 £10 per can They're £9 from Firesupport. Made me chuckle.

Now it's getting lovely and cold it's getting easier to get the cool kits sorted out. Busting out my Partizan suit and setting my 6sh117 up for keeping me on the field as long as possible. Got a hydro bladder mounted to the back and space for plenty of magazines. The rpk mags are fantastic for holding my coupled pp19 mags or the backup P90 mags for larping like it's the original modern warfare 2 load outs. Also fits my grach nicely on the belt so I can lay prone without poking anywhere sensitive.

About double what it should be: https://airsoft-forums.uk/classifieds/item/70728-st-matrix-kac-sr-25-full-metal/

I think I can honestly say that in the heat of raining plastic death, a little bit of stock wobble hasn't bothered me one iota.

H&K Fire Selector Red (TM's version anyway). Feels quite regal and opulent to me.

Tanaka Performance Centre 629 in Nato Green ( baby-puke green 😆) Literally in mint condition,boxed with all its original bits ( including the fill adaptor)

Also I'm pretty sure most couriers have rules about Joe Public posting pressurised canisters of flammable gasses

Thanks for the suggestion Muzzer, its possible I got some grime or fingerprints on the sensor when I was installing it. Following up from last night post i went to test it again this evening and the full auto was just shooting semi. I recalibrated it and now its full again but it seems odd that happened. Also noted that if i pull the trigger hard enough it does seem to get slightly stuck. Never noticed before because the full auto would kick in long before reaching that point. Worth noting this is only if I pull all the way back with a bit of force. It could just be me hitting the end of where it can go i guess? Unfortunatly I have neighbors so I can't really shoot alot this late which makes it hard to diagnose. Hopefully I can do some proper testing on Friday PS: this is a Cybergun p90 with a stock motor/gearbox

Gotta keep them backup irons available, should one need to engage close up......

Probably holding the handguard on, lets be honest. It is S&T after all 😂

I best start saving 😆

Yeah the TM recoils have chunky gearboxes though, the E&C is barely there. If it is s reperpoused gel soft gear box interesting to see hoz it handles Airsoft power.

Back in the day it was the norm, if you bought one & it had no wobble you got suspicious 🤔

Not if you break it into upper and lower.

I use a deployment bag on my bike. Always strap to bike rather than wear a backpack, its more comfortable and safer if you come off.

It was almost the exact opposite today. The chap doing the briefings, who I had not seen before, reduced the briefings to such an extent that key parts of the briefing were left out or passed over without clarification. For example, the briefing for the fallback game took less than a minute, during which he showed where the two teams would start, which was ok, and then showed that the next stage would be in the container field with a wave of his hand and a few mumbled words that did not specify whether that would be one stage or two; given that there were a fair number of players who were new to the site, this led to some confusion when the fighting moved there.

Just got home from Ambush Activities in Southampton. Having previously been mainly to CQB sites, the open woodland was an interesting experience. My workmates were meant to come, but they all bailed, so I was there on my own. First time being a lone wolf, but it was fun to just support my team by myself After just buying and upgrading a Cybergun P90, it was a good challenge and was very fun to be able to sneak around and even flank some enemies. It was a bit wet and muddy today after a day of rain beforehand, but that just meant they weren't expecting people to be prone on the floor >:) Decent objectives that were actually achievable. A few places I have been before (Ironsight Airsoft) have crazy objectives that are near impossible. So it was nice for the objective to be possible. A few of them even required 2-4 teammates to carry an objective into an enemy base. Other random info from the day: I lost a pistol mag 😢, there was a dude who had a camera RIF (yes, an adapted old style camera with a "press" outfit), I found and handed in someone's car keys I found in some mud by a tree. I got shot in the face by a HPA M249 by a teammate within 10m (ouch) All in all, a good Sunday skirmish. Will likely return to test out my Specna Arms LVOA

I just got home from... a different site for once. Me and my friend headed to Driver Wood, as we haven't played in over a month and he really wanted to see what the site was like. It was only my 2nd time there, and the last time I went was a while ago so it was basically both of our first times since so much has changed. I made the best decision of the day and when I saw it was 5 celcius this morning, I popped the thermals on. Since we wouldn't be able to leave anything locked in a car, we both only took 1 rifle and 1 pistol each; I chose my pre-ban Tanaka m24 and my TM HK45, though part of me did wish I brought my SRS or MTW-308 instead, as it was very, very cold this morning and it took a bit of doing to get my m24 shooting where I wanted. I stuck with orange gas in the m24 to try and ensure it was still consistent through the cold temperatures, but green gas went in the HK45 as that was cycling okay on green. If it was going to be 5 celcius all day, I'd have gone with red gas in the m24 and orange in the HK45. There were over 120 people on site today and it didn't feel like it. The site never felt over-crowded, and people weren't bunching up behind barricades. I can't give a detailed breakdown of each game, as I didn't pay any attention to the objectives. They would say where the objectives were, but me as a new player to the site had no idea where most of those places were. The only one I remember was the card game, where they hid a bunch of giant playing cards around the site and I remember that because some of the players moaned it was boring and I think they basically always play that game; I didn't mind it though. I spent most of the day trying to learn the site, learning the landmarks, learning some nice angles etc, and I would say I had a very successful day. I spent a lot of the day fighting around Oxford Street, finding a nasty little angle onto a helicopter that the other team consistently used and using my scrim net to essentially be invisible in one of the shipping containers as I shot out of the window. At one point, I had 4 people looking right at me while I was trying to reload and they didn't see me thanks to the dark interior, no silhouetting as there was a wall behind me, and the scrim net draped over me and my rifle to break up my silhouette and be less head-and-shoulders-shaped. Best part of the day for me was the 105m shot. For those who have played at Driver Wood, it was from the double decker bus on Oxford street all the way to the tower on the corner down the road. I had used my rangefinder in the previous game from that tower to see how far the bus was and it was just over 100m, and in this game after we had switched sides, I was sitting a few metres back in the bus to make sure that I wasn't visible to anyone close below, and also so that the other snipers in the tower couldn't drop shots onto me as I had a roof over my head. My celebration was short lived as my friend got taken out when someone sprayed full auto into the bus and I had to bug out, but still... 105m shot is always a nice one to hit. It was true airsoft archery though, as I had to aim at a significant angle and try and walk it in. Probably took about 10 shots to finally get the hit. There were a lot of long range shots today, with a lot of shots being 70m+, but the 105m shot was the stand out moment. So, my overall opinions of the site were very positive, but nothing's perfect and Driver Wood definitely has its issues. Hit taking was fine, though there were a few people taking the piss; however I saw the marshalls hit-checking players all day which was really great to see. The games weren't inspired, but they worked and did the job for a skirmish day. The site itself plays well, with no one way of playing feeling overpowered; there are plenty of long sight lines for a good sniper to take advantage of (which I enjoyed every moment of because Worthing is crap for sniping), but I never felt too dominant or untouchable and aggressive plays were often well-rewarded from what I saw (because I certainly wasn't doing it with my bolt action sniper rifle and 10rd mags!). The marshalling seemed decent from what I could see, and I didn't really have any issues there. Where I did have issues was after lunch there was a bit of spawn-camping (and I even overheard a player in the safe zone bragging about doing it...). In one game, we ended up just turning our roaming spawn (a spawn that can be attacked) into our hard respawn because the enemy team was all around our hard respawn and it was impossible to spawn there. Also, the team balance was abysmal. It feels like a lot of the regulars all stick together on one side (and I heard someone behind me in the safety brief saying that too), and our team lost literally every game through the day, though I don't mind that too much; I actually quite enjoy being on the weaker team and seeing how much damage I can do. The only thing for me was the spawn-camping; I hate spawn-campers. Oh, and the fact we go back to the safe zone after every game. That got really annoying too, but not the end of the world. Also, my LBE + backpack setup worked wonders. Carried everything I needed and really didn't feel heavy at all. Had it on for the whole day, fully loaded, and really didn't feel it because the weight was distributed so well. I might swap the right-side pistol mag pouch for a holster though and just run a pistol without a suppressor or flashlight. At that height, it'd be far too unwieldy with a suppressor, and my Warrior Assault Systems holster doesn't accept a flashlight, but I really didn't need the 4 spare pistol mags as I barely used my pistol. 2 spare mags would've been more than enough.

Get yourself a military deployment bag, they're super strong, 100 litres, don't look overtly military, & can be worn as a backpack, or also have strap points so you could strap it across your bike seat. Here's one: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/167500010325?_skw=deployment+bag&itmmeta=01K8GB5XQX6B5TXSKWZQGPTXGC&hash=item26ffc75355%3Ag%3AlZ0AAeSwyDloaADv&itmprp=enc%3AAQAKAAAA8FkggFvd1GGDu0w3yXCmi1fI3INbF2W2GmkWLH4C9pKpZ83Gh9rmKTiCRqZQyuPzo0CJa6jv%2FEIBEOmwQvzzgPTROAnnbQ7uh7YkuAiKiR87sIR5kO2ByrZZ4xafQbkM78zkuwMkb98rFX57oCtvhSmNz9MKgmy1H2TbKDSzPiMlwWO1GMiMNWaaEuIs0EL7Lq%2Bof716cqdKhP1ZaPZ9BmRD1EtPrauM%2FAnUygp4t5uneROo2dWpi%2FO96B9Pi9GfMQ%2BNSvtMQddqBLwmpavqewU2yl5wAFQJg5%2BKxDtzjk%2F0f5rn1J%2Bk4%2BVhebi9vfAhjQ%3D%3D|tkp%3ABk9SR6Tcl4vEZg&keyword=deployment+bag&sacat=0&relatedSearch=true&LH_ItemCondition=3000

NGRS so yes, burst works on them. Easy for them to do since they finally somewhat-caught up with the modern world and put in a fet.

Marui deagle 10" from used airsoft for a resident evil load out Now I just need a sliver lower and the grips 😜

Hey Gavin, In your 'Guns' info just put 'All the Guns' 🤣 I'll just post this one: "Say hello to..." something something 😉 The star is the real M203 quadrant sight ...and yes, the film prop used a fake M203 launcher.

Getting there with the MWS, VFC Storm Grip on the way as well as a genuine Diemaco stock. Internally fitted a Jaeger NPAS, although as its getting colder now I probably won't end up needing it! Also dug out my ancient set of para webbing, can't wait to field it.

It is a Raven evolution mag and I just sanded and filed down the mag to fit mate.

I can definitely understand the added safety element to barrel socks. I think I'm just thinking too much into my GBBR mind set of I have no mag in my gun so it can't fire a round and forget about the retards with aegs who don't observe the no dry fire rule. So definitely appreciate the added safety they offer.

If only more people used "barrel socks" irl, we might not have quite so many retards on sites😏

Seriously wtf is going on with used Airsoft lol

After a very brief chrono check today, I suspect it would benefit from an Npas to redirect the gas forward, chrono'd at around 0.6j 261.4fps

Not a bloody thing, fed up with the buggers where I live. See em all the time two up in black wearing balaclavas. No number plate or helmet so illegal, wheeling through traffic lights on there way to deliver drugs n steel bikes. C@#ts.

A balaclava isnt illegal, however see what happens if you walk near the public with one on lol

I'll just leave this here.... https://prefired.co.uk/ads/we-l85a3/

And lastly, My 'Retro' collection... We don't talk about this blue one either.

LMG's...

My UGL collection...

Sorry lol, the guns mine the background as mentioned somewhere is the A.I. bit Heres the original
