I was at Overlord on Sunday. Bought a couple of real Surefire M600's for £55 a pop. Also got a RS MP5 torch handguard for £35 quid and found what might be a bit of gold unicorn pooh in the shape of a MP5K handguard with a Magnalite attached. The mount was made by a company 20 miles from Hereford and the torch had some issue Duracells inside. I've never seen a picture of one and it's either probably a trials piece or a one off custom job for a job. I'll post a picture when the forum lets me. Now with a picture.

Managed to source a genuine Austrian StG58 kit for my full steel VFC FAL DX

GIVE ME £500 TOO.

There's only two things I can't stand on this forum: posters who are intolerant of other people's cultures, and the Dutch.

Poorly shimmed AEG gear boxes really grind my gears.

OP: "I just bought this, is this any good?" Forum: "not really" OP: "Well, let me tell you why it's good and you're all wrong"

Just wanted to share my experience flying from Spain (Malaga) to the UK with internal airsoft parts in my carry-on luggage, in case it helps anyone considering the same. This could probably help in some other EU countries as well. Background: I only considered doing this because I had pre-purchased parts from Finland and Italy to arrive at my address in Spain. Nearly everything was RetroArms parts at significant discounts — hard to come by and expensive to replace. The only non-RetroArms item was the LCT AK magwell spacers. I was trying to avoid shipping them separately or risking them in checked baggage due to time and coordination issues. Previous Experience: On a past trip, I had tried to take an airsoft pistol magazine in carry-on. In hindsight I couldn't believe I even tried this, I should have known better. It was flagged immediately and security said I’d have to either check it in the hold (too late) or have it confiscated. I chose the latter. Lesson learned: magazines are a definite no in hand luggage. This Time: I packed the following internal-only parts in my carry-on: 2 gearboxes 2 motor cages 2 spring guides 1 cylinder 1 cylinder head LCT AK magwell spacers Nothing was externally gun-shaped or capable of functioning on its own. All were purely internal upgrade components. I also brought: Paperwork detailing what the items were, receipts and why I had them. In both Spanish and English. My best attempt at staying calm and cooperative despite being rushed (I woke up an hour before the flight and was rushing like hell to get to the airport, don't do that!) What Happened: After going through the scanner, my bag was immediately pulled aside. Security flagged the contents as “weapon-like in nature.” I explained and handed over the documentation. A police officer was called. Thankfully, he knew what airsoft was and confirmed the parts were internal-only and not part of a replica. He still went to check with his superior, since it was a fairly large quantity. The superior gave the green light, but warned me not to do it again, emphasizing that other officers could have refused it entirely. I ended up having to sprint through the airport and barely made my flight. It was a close call as I had 7 minutes to run from Security, through Passport control and to the gate at the furthest end of B Terminal! Key Point: Even if what you’re carrying is legal, that does not mean you have the right to bring it in carry-on. Airport security and airline staff have full discretion to confiscate or deny boarding over any item they find suspicious, even if it’s not prohibited by law. Final Thoughts: I got through this time because I had paperwork, remained polite, and the police officer was informed. But it could have easily gone the other way. TL;DR: Only tried this because I had pre-bought RetroArms parts at a discount, shipped to Spain from Finland and Italy. Packed all internal parts: no replica externals, no magazines. Bag was pulled aside, police were called, and I was let through after a warning. Legal doesn’t mean allowed — security can refuse anything. Wouldn’t try it again — too stressful and risky. If you do intend to try this. Please make sure you heed the above!

I wonder if the 320’s have the realistic fire in holster or fire when dropped function 🤭

Very rarely share what I've bought, in case she picks up my phone lol, but saw this patch today & thought "yep, that's me"

Mystery Boxes are just retailers way to get rid of stock they can't sell. Save your money and actually buy something you want/need.

MWS + Nova kit and mil spec furniture.

To be fair, cocaine has become more expensive lately.

Got bills to pay at 19 😂😂 Mate try being a real adult What a cunt That £2 was well worth it ..................... Also, found this on ebay https://ebay.us/m/yXm4Og

Maybe he can add his GoPro and ScopeCam to the bills then. 🙄 He needs a fucking attitude adjustment, the entitled little shit.

For me, it’s people who message with questions, do you still have, what’s your best price etc etc. You answer, then hear nothing, sometimes it shows as not even read. I don’t mind if I don’t sell the item, but can’t stand rudeness. Why ask if you can’t even be bothered to read the answer. 🤬

People that fuck up, sometimes big, sometimes small, & when it's pointed out, go on the attack like it's everybody else's fault. Man the fuck up, admit you were wrong, instead of acting like a spoilt self entitled child ffs.

Pair of WE gas blowback L86 LSW's. One is owned by myself, I've just finished converting the other for a customer The left one is mine with a genuine buttpad and rear grip and spina susat, the right one is using ICS furniture with a genuine acog

probably not very exciting for most folks but managed to find 6 brand new MAG 100 round midcaps for the TM Sig. These are like unicorn pooh nowadays and found them on Evike USA which involved the usual UPS/Customs/general fuckery to get them delivered.

Your attitude stinks & your reasoning for trying to rip off members is deluded. Bye bye 👋

that's the dead internet talking. forums remain a bastion of actual enthusiast dialogue, and whilst this place has a particular feel (read: if you're a kickingmustang alumni you may not feel so welcome) it remains a safe place to chat airsoft related topics without the usual internet plague of adverts and bad opinions.

Calm down PAL, he's kidding, you got trolled by a nobody on airsoft hub, no one really cares, even the police, but maybe the law should include a proviso that nobody sells rifs under 18, that way they won't get their panties all twisted if called out 😜

Just goes to show that site is shit Stay here 👍

"guys I just bought this gun is it any good"

For me it's when someone asks for advice but then soon as a knowledgeable person answers they shun that advice and say but my mate or mate says this. Totally ignoring what advice is given.

New browning hi power mk3. Can't wait to use it in game. All ready own the original we browning hipower P35 so this one now completes my British load out along with l85 gbbr. Just like I was issued in my time in the RAF.

Scammer! Check this awesome photoshop

Thats the photo from the webpage, I just removed the emoji covering his face. To give the guy credit, his airsoft content is already better than Licking Dogturds.....

""Airsoft is more than just a game; it’s a way of life." – Every shot, every move, every plan—airsoft teaches us that attention to detail and commitment are key to success." I read this on their website and may have just been a bit sick in my mouth on the plus side they have a merch shop coming soon......

I live here cos the wife got a job here. I was in the military for most of the last 20 years so managed to avoid it mostly LOL. You know the state of military messing is bad when my wifes cooking and Peterborough in general are the more attractive proposition

I have one very similar

Just reported the page & asked that it be taken down, as it doesn't follow the ethos of gofundme, & he is not representative of the average airsofter, & the subject is being discussed here, with the general consensus being that we're appalled by his attempts to beg for funding for his hobby.🤬

If you get butt hurt when people call you out for ripping others off then you should really give your head a wobble and have a condor moment to contemplate why you are getting called out. This forum is great as people who do know better help those who don’t. If you are here to make a quick buck of other people who enjoy the same hobby then stick that hpa 50 rpm beast up your arse and let rip.

I hate when I ask a simple question and the response is “dunno selling for a m8”. Can’t your so called mate get off their arse and sell it all by themselves?

My friend - take this from someone who runs chrono at a site as a marshal: a chrono cannot 'measure' the joules of an airsoft gun. It cannot be used to detect someone lying about the weight of their BBs. All a chrono does is measure the speed of the BB - it does not know the weight of the projectile or the energy it is carrying. Inputting the weight into some chronos allows it to calculate the joules based on the input weight of the projectile. If the weight input is incorrect, the subsequent joules calculation will be incorrect. If a gun chronos at 310fps and the user claims to be running 0.25g BBs, the chrono will say the RIF is firing at 1.12j. If they are actually using 0.3g BBs, the chrono will still read 310fps and it will still say it is firing at 1.12j when in reality its more like 1.3j.

Just remembered another pet peeve,you see an item new in the classifieds, so you start a pm stream: ME: Hey mate, if this is still available I'll take it please.... SELLER: Yeah, still here mate..... ME: Cool, send me your PayPal & I'll send it over....... Half hour later, your message has been read, the items marked as "sold" but no reply to your earlier pm. Hour or two later...... ME: Mate, still waiting on your paypal details ?......... 2 hours later you see your message has been read, but no reply ......... 24 hour later........... ME: Dude, what's occurring, are you selling this to me or what ? Hour later, your message has been read, still no reply...... 2 days later......... SELLER: Yeah, soz man, somebody messaged before you........ WTF, SO WHY DID YOU NOT SAY SOMEONE'S SAID THEY WANT IT, BUT IF IT FALLS THROUGH YOUR NEXT IN LINE ETC. & WTF IS THE GHOSTING ABOUT 🤬 Definitely should be a reason for negative feedback, even if it's only to wake their ignorant dumb asses up ffs.

Imagine this scenario, a member is fed up with the silly prices some people are asking, they know what shit costs & where to get it, but options for speaking your mind & calling them out are limited, theres only one solution, use an obscure af email address to create an account purely for the purpose of ripping the shit out of them.🤔 Thank God nobody here would do that😏

People claiming they didn't see the big red banner on every page and still not following rule 5

Scammers are messaging members direct with guns for sale and pretending to be Moderators at AFUK using our usernames. Do not purchase anything from them or give them your details. Report to the Mod team. We do not have friends, family, or team mates with items for sale. We would only sell guns via the Classifieds, in a proper advert, not by random direct messages.

Captain Walt, on his radio to his squadtoon: "Moving! Up! Staircase B! In! Significant! Force!" Yeah, no, it's just me and you, mate, and I'm planning to use you as a meatshield. Intercept away, see if it does you any good.

Because i'm actually shit at airsofting i've decided to go with quantity over quality, and ordered an A&K M249 and an extra box mag for it.

Airsoft summed up. 🤷🏻‍♂️

100% "At just 19 years old, this aspiring YouTuber has explored numerous airsoft sites across the country, immersing themselves in the thrill of the game and connecting with fellow enthusiasts. However, to truly share these experiences and elevate their channel, they are in need of essential recording equipment such as GoPros and scope cameras." Well get a fucking job then like the rest of us. Why should anyone else give him £500 towards his own hobby. Get fucked. At just 19 years old he's decided he doesn't want to work, he wants to solely persue his hobby and thinks everyone else should pay for it.

@Tackleif we are going to apply the letter of the law, how about we apply the rule on no shops/professional sellers? Its obvious this guy is trying to operate as one not a legitimate private seller selling some of his gear/RIFS I can get much more cuntish, this isnt even alpha level lol
