  • I like to think this place is owned by someone who's managed to combine their love for Airsoft and beer.

    I bet they have a large range of beers that very similar, but ever so slightly different.

    Well at the end of the day, they all do the same thing!

    Plus a good pub and a good airsoft site have another thing in common , they both are frequented by grown arse men who really should know better saying things like “watch this lads !” AND said lads shortly afterwards saying “Oohh that’s gonna leave a mark !” ?

    Can G&G Firehawks just go away please, thanks.

    Non-consensual aural is the worst.

    After exactly five weeks, my Novritsch order is finally with me.

    @Cr0-Magnonahh, that makes more sense, how long was it of those 5 weeks that it was held in office? (if you know)

    Collected from Novritsch 10/02. It was with Border Force from 14/02 - 03/03. They then sent the release confirmation and it's taken UPS from then until now to clear and deliver.

    doesn't sound too bad with the five weeks part now that you put it like that to be honest

    I would like to thank the makers of the Spitfire & Bifrost tracers. Your products make locating players who use them in daytime woodland skirmishes, quick and easy.

    They are great outdoors, for the players on the other side.  I came up against one for the first time a few weeks ago; a really well hidden player with a nice flashing light each time he shot.

    @colinjallen - Yeah, it was either someone using a spitfire in completely the wrong environment or he'd mounted one of these on his gun, right?

    Why isn't there a Hi-Point airsoft replica ?

    I'd totally have a springer one.

    At $179 for a CF-380, could it be the first airsoft replica to cost more than the real-plastic?

    Of course, everybody would want a Yeet Cannon.

    Sort of do want.

    Cr0-Magnon

    @Rogerborg - Even more of a case for it being spring powered!

    Surely some of these Glocks are approaching RS price or higher. Especially like if with the GHK one, the mags are £40+.

    Only put it through one skirmish (which is one skirmish more than most youtube reviewers!) but so far very pleased with my XTC-G1 MS Aster. Not cheap or easy to find but solidly built, quiet/sounds perfectly shimmed out of the box, as well being jam packed with quality parts - including my favourite mosfet!

    Had a stinking cold all weekend and in my boredom watched one of the recent Novritsch videos. Yikes, shooting a kid with 1.8J and 0.46g's from 3 - 4 metres and showing himself doing the definition of blind firing....

    Never been a ‘fanboy’ of Novichok but in the beginning his vids where entertaining but now ? He’s gone the same way as every other Airsoft ‘superstar’ , after a period of time they all seem to turn in to wankers once they’ve been treated like a Demi-god by hordes of pimply faced pre-pubescent crotch goblins for long enough .

    Just tried to get through to Patrol Base on the phone and quickly hung up after hearing "You are currently caller number eleven in the queue".....

    In other news, I'm excited to finally be trying Driver Wood this Sunday!

    They're probably out making TikToks.

    Am I the only person who doesn't get the "HK slap" obsession? How many AEG's have been broken by this pointless maneuver ?

    I wouldn't even do it on a GBBR.

    No idea haha, I just googled 'hk slap gif' ?

    Looks smoother in that gif, than when a ham fisted airsofter wildly smacks his Taiwanese toy.

    I feel like the airsoft version is much more 'HK snap' than it is 'HK slap'. Yes I'm aware how shit that 'joke' is, and no, I'm not ashamed.

    Just in case you didn't know, the Secret Service rely on Elite Force Airsoft guns to protect the President?

    Z Nation is my guilty zombie pleasure.  Completely daft, increasingly silly, but they always tried for something fresh.

    Missy Pyle in the "RoZwell" episode about Area 51 zombie aliens (played by Doug Jones!)  was sheer joy.

    And then it gave us Black Summer which was almost the exact opposite, super intense and serious, it actually put the horror back into survival.

    I can forgive it a lot, even Elite Force.

    @Rogerborg - I'm surprised anyone else has really heard of it, let alone watched it. Definitely some interesting concepts in with the silliness too. I can't recall another film or series which had a character become a zombie whisperer.

    Although as I said to my friend, you know a series has "jumped the shark" when Henry Rollins shows up. It was the same with Sons of Anarchy!

    @Rogerborg Is Black Summer worth sticking with?  I tried it and managed to get a couple episodes into season 1 but I found it to be pretty terrible.

    "Just because you wasted three mags on me, doesn't mean you hit me"

    From a recent Dutch the Hooligan video and a line I'm going to have to start using!

    It's the lowest form of getting as many eyeballs on you as possible. Appreciate when you're at the levels of Dutch and people like 'Stang it can make a fairly large difference to that videos income but I'd prefer to think that people generate lots of views from decent and engaging content that gets shared rather than another mildly heated conversation about a non hit taker.

    Cr0-Magnon

    @Steveocee - I genuinely wish that was the case but doesn't seem like people are much interested in that. The airsoft videos which seem to pull the biggest numbers on youtube, are drama in a game and those which spend thousands on mystery boxes.

    Case in point, this video:

    4.2 million views of a small kid getting hurt and likely never wanting to ever play our sport again. This disappoints me on so many levels.

    If I open an iwholesale account and make a website, then never actually communicate with my customers, can I call myself an airsoft shop? Seems to work for many!
