But do you remember the SWAT truck?

As mentioned, good torches are cheap these days and very useful. I struggle to find sites that run night games. Where are you playing?

Yeah, you’ll be fine. Walking and crawling is a great way to play outside. Be sneaky, you will have a great time.

I run the Blue Force Gear chest rig, as shown in your picture. It’s been brilliant and it’s very low profile.

Get one of those unholy GBBR to HPA adaptors.   The 3D printed ones that require you to butcher a perfectly good GBBR magazine, stuff its innards into a PLA contraption, and use AEG mags and an air line. You’ll need eye bleach, but it allows use of your GBBR in winter with no problems. Or...

We had a couple of .303 Bren guns in our ACF armoury back in the mid 1980’s. I remember being issued one for an exercise with 2 mags and just 20 blanks. I got a massive bollocking when during the contact I ripped the whole lot of in one burst.    Sod carrying around that lump as a teenager

I’d tend to agree with this, and must clarify that I avoid using white light as much as possible - it’s far more satisfying to bean someone with a single shot out of the darkness.    However there always seems to be a willy waving torch duel at some point. It seems to me that many airsoft...

I've been using The Odin LEP for over a year now, so know a little about its capabilities.  It's a great unit, if a little specialised. I run it purely for night airsoft, in conjunction with bino NVG's and a Jerry C5 thermal ecoti overlay.  I don't run an IR laser, and just use passive aiming...

I’ve just come across your post and agree entirely.  It did feel like a ‘mini milsim’ and the standard of player effort was very good.    Are you going to the one this weekend at Tuddenham?  I was the player that travelled from Derby, and all being well will do the four hour round trip again...

Did you leave the ‘silent fill’ gubbins in the fill valves?  I find these handy on other mags, but not TM ones. You can use dental ligatures to make your own for about £2 for 500, just don’t use them on TM mags unless you like buggering them up. 20 grams of gas should have given you about 200...

In my book the only thing better than an MWS, is a pair of MWS. Sharing the same mags/BCG is handy.  Having said that, I’m enjoying my GHK AK running on CO2 in the cold weather.     So to answer your question, no I don’t carry boring electric guns as insurance - you’ve got to commit to gas.  I...

Pick the o ring out with something like a dressmaking pin and throw it away.  TM gas system is not designed to use ‘silent fill’ inlet valve modifications. Sounds like you need to purge your mags - use a fresh tin of gas, turn the mag upside down and fill with a long burst of gas, but use your...

Where did you get that from mate? Impulse?

Can do, depends on the weather.    As for airsoft, I had a eye near miss for the first time in 17 years of playing a couple of weeks ago. It was at a CQB site in Derby, and I foolishly broke cover and ran across an open doorway only to get pre fired by some tights wearing HPA hicapa spammer...

I'm still not clear on what you mean?
