Good news! They have release the parcels

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

I got home from work last night to find these on the dining room table.... The previous owner gave up Airsoft years ago and was about to bin them all when a chance conversation about Airsoft led them to be dropped off at my house.... They're at least 15 years old and in need of some TLC but blimey. Day went from meh to WHOA!!!

Finally got my hands on one

I note that you didn’t answer my question. You cannot just make sweeping statements about the Met not being interested in recovering real firearms without being able to back them up. I do live in London. Your views about the police are not representative of what they actually do and the issues that they face on a daily basis. My eldest son’s partner is an officer in the Met and I also regularly deal with Met officers relating to a range of cases. They are not the Mayor’s personal army; they are regularly dealing with appalling situations and deserve the support of the population, rather than regurgitated nonsense.

Moral of the story is, don't leave expensive kit in your vehicles, theft from vehicles has been rife for decades, particularly in the big cities, blaming the current negative perception of policing is just a cop out, no pun intended, I've never heard of a vehicle being broken in to that didn't have something of interest visible to passing scrotes.

Get ready for a week or two of silliness😱

Current collection

As an ex copper myself - thank you. To the OP any sympathy I may have had is gone, don't leave valuables in cars.

Felt like a proper summers day today Out with a mix of DNC under RG rig With Desert Tiger Stripe Certainly stood apart from the normal MTP crowd

Current collection

Is the view that it's fucking stupid to leave your guns in a car? Yeah, that's ALWAYS been a dumb move but people never learn

How do you know that recovering real weapons is not on the Met’s agenda? Comparing the Met with the NKVD demonstrates a complete lack of knowledge of what the NKVD did and is utterly insulting to Met officers. The NKVD was responsible for a vast number of killings, along with torture and other crimes.

The RIF I wanted so bad, that when I joined these forums 20+ years ago, my username was 'Bison Hunter' 😁. I got a custom made from a TM Beta Spetsnaz but it wasn't really skirmishable. Then I quit the hoppy and came back 15 years later to find that Bizons had basically been and gone... until Patrol Base got some stock in at the same time I got a work bonus. I've had it 3 weeks and decided I wanted to remove the stock completely and cover the exposure at the back. This required an adaptor that itself required some angle grinder attention. But now with the RK-3 grip, B-13 mount (both with funky Russian language on them), and PBS-1 can, it's almost my dream RIF. In lieu of a decent Kobra sight, I have a C More sight on the way, so the nasty one on here is a placeholder. First game on Sunday and I just can't wait! 😁

FECKIN SUBSTITUTIONS 😱, its not feckin Iceland ffs, give people what they order, & if some bits ain't in stock, refund the difference, not fob them off with the crap you can't shift in your going out of business sale. Clearly they're attitude to customer service is still shit 🤬

Welcome. There's quite a few of us older players here. I would've put mature but I think quite a few of us grew old but not up

Hello and welcome Pass all your bank cards to your mrs for safe keeping and a secure financial future We are all doomed in here!

Absolutely agree I’ve got a little bit of ocd with my kit, but enjoy the clean up a day or so after a skirmish. My mate on the other hand, just chucks his in the cupboard under the stairs afterwards and wonders how things end up fcukered for his next game day His best yet was snapping the receiver on his APS Cam 870 But I do steer clear of anything that has grime showing in the classifieds listings Even folks grotty bedrooms in the background deter me from looking at it any further. There was a GHK AK listed a while ago, at a sensible price I think from memory, it was photo’d next to his undercrackers and wank mop pile! C’MON MAAAN!! 😂

Hi folks, never thought this day would ever come but I'm moving into cycling, partially for my health but it's always been my hidden passion. As a result I've decided to sell off my collection, many of you will know my collection so keep an eye on the classifieds and appraisal sections for more info.

I don't want to start a discussion I'm just putting this here for anyone interested in seeing the difference so their messages are clearer to read. Your - Belongs to you Example: Your gear You're - Short for 'You are' Example: You're right There - Referring to a place Example: Lets go over there Their - Possession Example: Don't touch their RIF They're - Short for 'They are' Example: They're going to be surrounded Hope this helps clear things up a bit.

The new agency arms slides just landed on my doorstep today 👍🏽 pretty happy with the first one! shamless plug, but I’ve started recording some of the tech work I do, and as a result, I’m in the process of publishing a few tech videos on the gen5 MOS. Have a look and let me know if you lot think it’s helpful?

After discovering my VFC SCAR-Hs have an NPAS from the factory (🥳) i made an adjuster tool to make it easier to tweak through the ejection port rather than stripping it down every time.

Well, that's yore opinion.

So a quick & dirty report now my 3.5" is here, thanks to Red Wolf. The bad - no manual or hop adjustment key. No markings, unless you have them done yourself. My local guy is primed .... The good - everything else! Hop is a bit fiddly to set - clockwise for more, anti-clockwise for less. *EDIT****** Chrono'd again with my Acetech 6000 Mkiii - I thought the values were way too high. Its absolutely beautiful - from the grips (unstained in my case - which is fine, I'm looking forward to working some bees wax into her), to the spinning chamber action (no other revolver really touches this) is stunning. Trigger pull I can't give you figures on but having shot a lot of real steel (pre-ban in the UK) it feels right. Very smooth, very smooth indeed. Its loud - anecdotely similar to the wingun. The shells make a lovely sound if you slot them in one by one into the chamber. Consitency is way and above wingun - see FPS below as a result I would happily take and get a body shot at 30m, maybe 40m. I need to test her in the field really Looks like that new shell design has paid off. Shells are lovely (R-P 357 Magnum - "Remington-Peters" 357 Magnum). I haven't tried the moonclips - I'm running her with HKS 586-A speedloadeers on my belt as a secondary sidearm loadout. Love the way they resemble a copper plate bullet. The shells fit in a wingun speedloader but .... you end up with some shells in your chamber/some not. I could play around with them and work out how to get everything lined up ... but why dress lamb as mutton? Fits my 686 leather holster with thumb snap for the hammer perfectly. Hops .3s with no problem - I think you could go heavier but I don't see any advantage as 0.3 means I use the same weight in all my sidearms. For my use, I think the 3.5" is a perfect balance between portability,weight & accuracy. I'd love to see what the 5/6" versions are like (possibly with a different finish although the silver is really special) & the other grip options. The longer barreled models are going to be (legal!) hand cannons I think. Quite excited by the prospect! Very happy with her - I'd say this is by far & away the best revolver I've used in a long line from Tanaka, Marushin & Wingun. Shells are a must for me - you really cannot beat the feel & buzz of using them in combat. Hopwise this is best I've seen, closely followed by the old 8mm Marushin, Tanaka SAA adjustable then coming a fair way behind, Wingun. Further behind still, Tanaka fixed. So 6 shots, .3 ASG Blaster Devil BBs, 19°C, slow count of 5 between shots. 1: 227 2: 235 3: 229 4: 230 5: 231 6: 233 Average = 230 which is 282 FPS with 0.2 equivalent. So sight legal & really consistent Some rubbish camera phone pictures attached, full review post skirmish day (or 2) to follow.

thanks for the reply, i was definitely going to show some of the scuffs from my fidgeting, if i didn't it wouldn't be fair.

So the rumors are true then. You and Tackle really are getting a tandem.

You're going to dress up in daft clothes to use expensive toys that will sit in your garage most of the time and break as soon as you look at them? Weirdo.

Long live FG.

I think you misspelled ‘twat’.

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:

It's entirely up to the site(s), you'll have to look into that. Some fire control systems actually let you program in a DMR delay to limit the rate of fire. There's a significant degree of trust involved in DMRs given the minimum engagement distance, and the potential for abusing them by spamming. One of my locals just disallows them completely (everything has to either be <1.2J or bolt action), and frankly I agree with them given how hard it is to marshal DMRs. HPA makes Baby Jesus cry.

That 17 has a terrible overbite..

Well been into Airsoft since before UKRA was even a thing. Took a bit of a brake around 2015 and got back into Airsoft over 3 nearly 4 years ago. Quite a few good changes in RIF quality and choice 😁 spent the last few years working on loadouts and RIFs deciding what I like and don't like. Tried lots of different roles from Sniper, DMR, Gunner and Rifleman. Been working with HPA and AEG. I like both platforms. Sniper and DMR not really my thing. But Gunner and Rifleman are more my thing. Not much else to say other I try to get out for a game day at lest once a week.

Wrong stock, pistol grip and magnifier but it's a work in progress of the new Royal Marine MCX in 300 Blackout. Based on a VFC.

Second half of the gen5 disassembly video

I get the feeling it's more likely there simply isn't enough evidence for a conviction than they just dont care

Few bits of glock news: firstly it looks like TM have announced a new production date. Hopefully that means if you had a preorder with impulse, you’ll get yours! secondly, don’t have photos to hand, but guarder have teased on Facebook they’ll be doing a gen5 G34 and G45 based off the gen5 mos platform 😍

So bb's are not continuing to meaningfully accellerate once they've left the barrel. The velocity it has when it passes a chrono, is going to be the maximum it has. The joule creep thing is that for certain platforms, whilst heavier rounds result in lower velocity, its not proportional to the kinetic energy. The difference is in constant pressure versus constant energy systems. Lets say we have 2 cars at a drag strip, one heavier than the other. The first run, we give them limited fuel. The lighter car has enough it can drive flat out the whole time and run out of fuel right as he passes the line. But the heavier car wether he drives flat out and coasts the last few hundred yards, or drives gentle so he runs out as he crosses the line either way he's going to be moving slower. Thats your aeg, the fuel tank is your spring energy, you can fire a heavier round but it'll just go slower because the spring doesnt have any more to give. Second run, the cars have unlimited fuel. Your lighter car puts in the same time as before driving flat out till he passes the line. The heavier car however, well now he can drive flat out the whole time and unlike last time he doesn't have to coast the last few hundred yards and keeps flat out. His car is heavier so he doesnt finish faster than the light car (remember kinetic energy factors in mass), but he beats his previous pass even though he's had to burn more fuel to get there. This is your gbbr/hpa (at least the latter when tuned for heavier ammo), the gun during firing will just keep sending gas until the bb leaves the barrel, so if a heavier bb spends a bit longer in the barrel then it has more time to absorb the energy. In the case of lighter ammo, the unused "fuel" at the end of the race is the wasted gas that is still being supplied after the bb has left the barrel. This is why the ratio between the weights, or the length of the barrel (the drag strip in our analogy) is a factor in this too. A pistol barrel isnt going to creep as much as a dragonuv, and the jump from 0.2 to 0.3 wont be as big as the jump from 0.2 to 0.4. Limiting ammo weight is one way to lessen the effect, assuming people stick to it, but it aint as good as making sure that peoples pews, firing the ammo and settings they intend to use in-game, are within the acceptable limits.

"Please buy our failing part-time business with a patchy reputation" is a tempting pitch, but I reckon I'll pass.

Tired of seeing the genre of "bundle" listings where people add extra used worthless stuff (in the eyes of the buyer) to "justify" a ridiculous markup. Most people prefer to buy their own equipment and consumables. https://www.airsoft-hub.com/item/37951-arcturus-ak-bundle

I saw a thing a while ago that attributed phones screens getter bigger to when we realised that we could watch porn on them. 😁

So to summarise: - No planning permission - SSSI land - Skirt around the rules, trying to use loopholes - Owners with a dubious history of running a business It's not often i side with the local council - but this one seems pretty open and shut

Love my ICS MP5s first AEG I bought in 2004 was one and used them since

“easily removed”

I’ve been again trying to master the art of faux wood effects. This time on the cheap Double Eagle M58A.

I know they are discontinued but really?? https://www.usedairsoft.co.uk/rif-s/electric-powered/trmr-purple_i77232
