Been working on my feldwebel 2/Pz.Gren.Rgt.125 for the winter of 44-45 mainly operation wacht em Rhine and Nordwind. Decided to give my a-frame another go set up with zeltbahn and blanket instead of my pack. Hope you guys like it and I've got my winter 44 wacht em Rhine windhund impression to photograph next.

Well they said 2020 and they didn’t lie, only just (will probably be a few months more till we see them here in the UK though). I believe this rifle is a springer as well which is nice to see. with this and the G&G No4 on the horizon it’s great to finally see some Enfield rifles on the Airsoft market place.

Could also put a fly back across the motor.

Just a few images of my WW2 load out and East German circa 2020 fantasy load out.

Remington 1875 Frontier Army Remingtons failed (but by many accounts better) attempt to cash in on the colt single action army. Started life as a 177 airgun. A few bits machined and it's now an airsoft gun with a fixed hop. I *think* it's the only airsoft one so far. Ideally I'd like to change the colour and hydrodip the grips wood or paint them more like bone. But this is now my primary airsoft "weapon".

Hey everyone, New player up in Hull, just finished my third game at Humber airsoft and got my defence. Absolutely loving it! Hope I get involved with the forum. Also looking to get to know any local players. Thanks!

So I just received this email from Gunfire.pl.

See you answered your own statement there- that bloke already has the market cornered.

Quiet you fool..keep it under your hat. You could be on to something....😉

I kinda wish i didnt need to arc-weld a 3-phase rated switch together with about 6kv worth of back emf to have learned that lesson (or at least remembered back emf was a thing) And thats how hamster got banned from the electrical lab.......

I can't help with Vodaphone, but what I will say is don't rule out smaller companies, rather than just looking at the common options. I moved from Vodaphone to 1p mobile a few years ago. It uses the EE network so no good for you, but with that sim I get 1p calls and 1p texts all the time, I am what you would call a phone dinosaur and don't use data at all. I have to topup £10 every 4 months, as a min. So it works out at £2.50 a month. And even that low an amount I think I'm over £100 in credit... lol. Just make sure you check the Truspilot reviews, but from my own perspective I can't tell the difference in coverage between 1p mobile and EE (the missuses phone). So it's been a good overall move for me.

I'd say that email was akin to marketing suicide. Refusing to accept orders under £135? In an email sent to every UK customer on the database..... Slow clap. I could understand an email saying there is going to be a change to the free postage system with a higher cap, and higher postage on all orders to the UK. That is an acceptable thing to do. To just flat out add a min spend requirement.... Well that's something else. Why would I even bother to look at that site to compare prices anymore. I'm going to go directly to another supplier. If the rest of the world can deal with international trade and the hurdles it creates, Then a single store loosing my business because they can't adapt and would rather loose a full market isn't something I'll be loosing sleep over. Best bit is, there's a trade agreement... All they have to do is fill in a few forms and keep records of sales to the UK.... It should be part of any international companies basic infrastructure. I get most of my bits from inside the UK anyway. AK2M4 has been a godsend, not that I actually buy a lot of parts. And Fire-support are generally the first website I visit when I want to gather my senses and not buy another gun. There's also the elephant in the room so to speak. GF have been a pretty solid 20% cheaper on most gear through the years.... Could it be, and this is speculation at it's very best/worst, that GF fiddle the VAT books to keep prices down. Having to ship to the UK where the VAT would be scrutinised may upset the fiddle and cost them money, hence they can't actually offer those prices at all. And they need the £135 to be back into profit.... Food for thought there.

You’d seriously fuck your self up with light-chucks!

failing that - use a snubber/flyback diode across a NORMAL cheapo motor don't put them on SHS/G&G types - well I wouldn't... think kwa use this as some fancy bollox to save trigger contacts but yeah it is a flyback diode to drastically lessent the sparks at contact which incidently is not when the circuit if first closed as many think but as the trolley pops and the switch opens once again - ZZAAPPP a large massive spark jumps from the inductive load - aka da motaaa and THAT is how your contacts arc n weld n shit 50p diode, schottky diode qwells 98% of the arcing ninja'd coz dinner was being dished up - lol WHY THE FUCK DID I QUOTE MYSELF ??? THOUGHT I WAS EDITTING THE POST DAMN IT was looking for the kwa or king arms thingy with super duper trigger saver module (it's a fucking flyback diode ffs)

Fly back diode, eats up the shutdown current created by a DC voltage motor, saves the brushes/commutator

doubt if you will get anything smaller... it's fucking tiny... https://www.airsoftworld.net/perun-mosfet.html

Literally the thread below this one. 🙂

Agreed, both TWG (way back in 2014) & Gunfire did points to collect could use your points for delivery or decent stuff (cheap gun, gearbox, bb's etc...) now GF points in finishing on 31st December with fuck all available to exchange them for postage has shot up, free postage used to be like 150 Euro's then 230, now think it was about 300 last time I looked edit: oh yeah them GF bastids added paypal fees to order a while back too (TWG does charge you for paying via PayPal) Mind you TWG does free delivery to all of Europe except UK since about 2017 Think exchange rates like with the dollar have had an impact on stuff though GF does some good offers on spare parts at times, but not so much on guns so gotta go some to make it worthwhile in 2020 and with 2021 around the corner, think the cheap as chips GF days are long gone now (no more points, free shipping qualifying always increasing, PayPal fees etc...) Another thing is that Gate & Perun stuff may be slightly impacted by UK/EU stuff overall, think we may need to ensure we want to buy more shit than casually buying stuff "coz it was on offer..." which may not be a bad thing tbf we shall see, might help small retailers like Pete @ak2m4 so silver lining & all that meantime we can try to make our old faithful shit run more efficiently to keep up with the new fancy bollox - but still a peew peew toy gun sewing machine in the end we shall see...

No great loss tbh, they used to be one of the cheaper retailers when they first started now frankly they take the piss with some of their prices

But the No.4 by G&G will be shit. Sorry G&G cannot do gas rifles. Disappointed that this is an SMLE as would love a proper spring No.4 but its going straight onto the must buy list if it looks this good.

oooh, any idea on cost yet?

D’oh! I got mixed up, you are correct, it’s Gunfire I got the message from. Still relevant to the thread though.

Same here

That's odd. I just got the same thing from gunfire...

IIRC it has a lot less adjustment range than the stock one so it might be ok but if you are running heavier ammo it may struggle to lift it. This was covered somewhere in this thread...probably page 120-ish??

afaik there is a "manufacture" clause in the vrca. it's a tricky one when it comes to the likes of secondhand sales if you're trying to figure out what you should be asking a defence for. the easy test is "will joe bloggs look at it and think gun" (or the man on the clapham omnibus argument as rogerborg puts it), which is why it still applies to guns that aren't technically based on a real gun (for example the aps uar) internal parts should be fine, gearboxes etc.

its beautiful 😍

Yea that’s what I’m thinking. Thank you. Wouldn’t go building a RIF until I have my UKARA anyway which hopefully won’t be too long!

I'm not totally clued up on it but I believe parts are ok if you make an RIF from them is when it gets illegal but I may be wrong

I personally always use 11.1v. No matter what gun in the past no issues. Besides everyone needs a flamethrower while on the frontline. 😏

Some here may have other opinions but mine would be NO, stick to 7.4v LiPo A 7.4v LiPo will still perform a bit better than the stock battery. It would probably work for a while but its not designed for that kind of electrical power. The motor will suffer, no MOSFET so the trigger contacts will arc like crazy, the gears would have to be well shimmed or get chewed up and the bearings would take a pounding. Something will fail sooner rather than later and when it does it won't be pretty.

I used to play alot about 5 years ago. Sold all my gear to fund travelling/wedding. Decided 3 weeks ago to get back into it. Here's what I've got since, but unfortunately unable to play due to tier 4 🤬 -ASG YHM M4 with lonex A1 motor - Was recon plate carrier - OD gloves - OD dump pouch - 2x3 m4 mag pouch - 10x valken mid caps Still waiting on these to arrive - pressure switch and mounts for Olight M2r - warq full face mask -Source kangaroo 1L hydration system

Hi, ALL! 👋 Happy Christmas, not the best year, so stay safe and see what happens in 2021!?.... 😷👍 My last video of 2020, enjoy it for what it is. 🔫😎👍 💷GAMBLE💷

Have been surprised no one has answered this. Remove the problem valves, fill a pot with enough silicone oil to cover them and leave them overnight. This will usually restore sticking or leaking valves. Worst case, go buy a couple more valves, it'll be 15 quid but a lot cheaper than two new mags.

Getting there with my British kit, webbing all Blanco'd up. Just gotta get myself a lid, and decide what patches I'm going to have...

If you want a metal slide (but polymer lower) you can’t go wrong with a WE Glock. They are very solid and reliable, and shoot quite well (a few small mods can make them shoot great). They do suffer more from cool down than Marui pistols, but they will take higher power gas to compensate. On really cold days I have even used WE CO2 mags with no problems.

Step one: buy a SixG brass super nub (best upgrade in my eyes) step two: buy a modify tan bucking step three: buy some geoffs .36 bb’s step four: fit the parts and test step five: return here to tell me I was right lol
