    I saw a video of him firing what seems to be a dessert eagle out the window. It’s loud and shells are ejected. Had Glocks and a machine gun from all accounts.

    Something was real though, Even a sound hog doesn’t sound like a real gun

    BFG Stuff. Primers etc. What are these things and what do I need to use them? Been given a bunch of these things but have no idea how they work, or what they work in. 

    Anyone help?

    Yeah, DON'T order a SWAT VTG on their website.

    Luckily my payment failed because when I emailed for another way to pay I got no answer.

    Then I found THIS and THIS

    Phew, glad I missed that one

    Small as they look, the .209s are quite loud and I wouldn't want to throw anything louder at people.  They're also incredibly cheap, working out to about 10p per throw.

    So yeah, I'd highly recommend the Dynatex.

    Be aware the rules at most sites is to only throw underarm and not above waist height as they would cause injury if thrown properly and land on someone.

    That's where the cardboard pyro MK5's have an advantage.

    As much as most sites don't allow 12g it's nice to be able to use them. They are great fun for shits and giggles.

    BFGs are best for CQB really, woodland not so much unless its timed, but then you have the big risk of losing it in the undergrowth/mud etc . so personally @Asomodai I would suggest not getting one if you havent used and have no desire to field one. I know you dont like CQB much.

    Bring the smaller ones to our next game, I will take them off your hands ;)

    Spent from 9AM til 8PM modifying this blasted M16. V2 Gearboxes can do one!

    @rocketdogbert Luckily its working fairly well now. Managed to put through about 2000 rounds without missing a beast. Air seal is slightly funky still with the hop unit and bucking, but brings the FPS down to 330 from 340 so perfectly skirmishable. 
    @Adolf Hamster That was the annoying aspect of it. If I have to open the gearbox again I am going to have to just replace the shell with a Quick Spring Change system. If someone can just make a quick change Version 3 gearbox, where the trigger isn't a bugger to keep in and the motor can be swapped out like a version 2 then I would be a happy chappy.

    v3's aint so bad.

    i drilled a tiny hole and installed a little screw to hold the trigger in mine, takes a massive amount of annoyance out of the process.

    Agreed - they should make a v3 with a one piece not 2 piece floppy trigger

    they could call it a v2.5 - Oh no, that is the elongated SR25 v2 box

    well they could make a v2 with a motor cage to set angle/height easy

    Oh no, they did that yonks ago on the bastid Elephant HK33 abortion box...

    002012.jpg


    well I meant a V3 with a one piece trigger not a V2 with G36 motor cage

    see here - yup it actually exists/existed....

    http://www.france-airsoft.fr/forum/lofiversion/index.php/t74525.html

    Until they make a v3.2 or something then guess we will have to live with them qwirks that both boxes have

    Finished the Gearbox upgrade of the €80 S&T Tavor. 





    Still got a way to go though :(

    Bah I really screwed up with my barrel size for the sniper rifle. Anyone want to buy a practically unused day old Maple Leaf VSR 510mm Crazy jet barrel? ?

    My Parcel from SurplusStore has gone missing. Was apparently signed for today at 1:30pm with my last name (CoronaVirus rules). But I didn't get a knock at the door or notification. My work desk windows looks out at the front of the house. Didn't see anyone drop anything off, or take anything from my door for that matter.

    Really they opened the parcel!! What the hell is wrong with people, greed.  She no doubt thought "hey free shit" then realised you knew exactly where it was.  You should have reminded her it's illegal to open post that isn't addressed to you

    Probably thought WTF is this stuff and best to give it to you. If it had been something normal you likely never would have seen them. 

    I bought a RIF once and the seller put the wrong house number on the package, luckily they were not in and it went to the collection office and I managed to get to it before they did. I can only imagine their faces if it had got to them and they opened it :D   They wouldnt have known who it was for either so I got very lucky. But I still laugh at some little old lady opening up an M4.

    This is what I bought and used for my AKM, check the pic, mine plays up from time to time, but still works and with other AK models! ?

    A belated last SE Tour Review for a while. Took sometime to write up but it's now ready! Dragons Lair Airsoft!

    My TM M9 U.S is making a quiet popping a second after I fire. Is this mags or the pistol? I presume I need to lube or clean something. Any ideas?

    Steveocee
    Steveocee
    I had something very similar recently with my G18C, needed just a touch of lube around the loading nozzle and return spring and a bit of "movement" to settle it in. Maybe worth a try. I hadn't lubed/maintained my G18 for a year prior to this.

    Newbie Suppressor question. Many suppressors for Airsoft call themselves "Fake Suppressors" Is this because they don't actually suppress sound or because they are not used on real firearms?

    Reason I ask is that I want to get a suppressor for my bolt action to help dampen the sound somewhat. The only suppressor I own is just an empty metal case and I am unsure if this is what is meant by a "Fake" supressor" Do any suppressors work?

    Foam filled "suppressors" do reduce the sound. The air that comes out makes a noise and masking that helps a bit. If you fire your empty gun with and without holding your finger over the barrel, i'm sure you'll be able to tell.

    oil filter is supposed to work on actual firearms

    so on that basis if anything is REALLY going to work

    it will be one of those bastards

    (google oil filter suppressor)

    most suppressors just change or slightly dampen the sound

    they are like farts, some are more quiet than others

    and love is like a fart...

    if you try to force it too much - it will probably be shit

    you could a piston brake or silicone pad over sorbo can lower the piston slap...

    https://www.airsoftsniperforum.com/43-longrange-aegs/9062-guide-cylinder-head-damper-remold-bye-bye-sorbo.html

     often wondered about all those baffles/padding etc...

    but it must work of a sort coz going the other way...

    Don't buy a daft sound hog or FireHawk tip to become a loud annoying player on the field...

    Just cover/tape up a M4/M16 flash hider to make a massive CRACK for no costs at all

    So in theory going the other way some sort of "venting" or "slots" as well as the dampening material inside should perhaps dissipate the dulled sound ???

    NB: this is just a theory based upon the M4 CRACK you get if you cover the flash hider

    (try it - really makes a loud crack)

    So if an enclosed hider amplifies then maybe - just maybe a vented sponge might just might be a little more effective too perhaps

    Dunno - but I did wonder about all this crap coz most of it just changes the sound of the air, yet most of us still have grindy AEG's making the most sound

    The padding deffo does "something" though

    if you unscrew one them cw/ccw suppressors, pull out the spring/padding

    it makes a friggin' amplified CRACK too...

    just wondered if a cheapo slotted or swiss cheesed one would maybe be more effective ???

    ignore almost all of this coz I'm just talking crap coz I'm bored atm

    You want to dampen the sound?

    Unless you have an airbrake I suggest to glue/pressure fit a rubber door stop onto the cylinder head, so that it dampens the impact of the piston head. An alternative would be to use a big fat o-ring in place of the door stop.

    Did it on my Striker and it killed the sound so much I can easily run without a suppressor and still be quiet as hell.

    On a suppressor there are a few things you can do.

    Scotchbrite disks in place of foam and plastic/rubber baffles.

    A fart flap helps a lot in lowering the sound but it needs to be done right otherwise it'll just throw your shots way off.

    Also, something that most 'softers don't care about is a correct volume ratio for the bb weight.

    People from BRISTOL. Are any of you playing either Black Ops Portishead or the Courts in Bristol on Sunday? I may be able to squeeze it in on a trip to see my folks.

    They are great if your gun is overvolumed, otherwise I wouldn't bother.

    I mean, the whole concept of the CJ revolves around using that extra air to create a cushion + stabilize the bb at the end.

    Does fuck all if you don't have extra air to spare tho :P

    Asomodai
    Asomodai
    @Skara Mine is slightly overvolumed at the moment. So it could be useful. 

    My issue is that I cannot find another decent barrel which is close to 505mm long without cutting one down. I would rather not do that on a precision sniper barrel which relies on good workmanship to get the best out of it.

    Anyone playing either Ultimate Wargames Fawkham this Sunday?

    Russian loadouts are so stressful to plan out and I have only been looking at the suits! 

    Looks like its going to have to be a Gorka-R in Khaki, not my favourite colour or even version. But its the right size (54 6-7).

    i wouldn't worry too much about the purists, you get them in every area. just get a setup you like and enjoy the comfort russian equipment provides.

    also if you get a smersh be prepared to have all your other rigs go obsolete :P

    Adolf speaks the truth, I love my SMERSH and use it for everything.  I also really rate my  SSOJaeger chest rig.  

    A gorka, with a SMERSH is pretty much all you need.
