    Bespoke Airsoft - Loudwater

    Finally got an email from them today saying the pew was now pewing and I can come and collect it. Going to go down tomorrow with my Chrono and some BBs and see how it performs.  Must resist the urge to buy more shit though LOL.  Sent 4 in to Airsoft Monkey in Stevenage to be fixed up so its...

    Buying a GBBR from japan.

    Yep - it seems to have a spike each morning...  I sent WMBO a load of stirling, but of course it was my fault hte exchange rate went down and she "couldn't use it". LOL We use Wise bank so can set the rate to convert money automatically - I wonder how ambitious she has got? With all the worry...

    Buying a GBBR from japan.

    Annoyingly (especially for me as it is school fee's season) the pound has just tanked against the yen.

    Buying a GBBR from japan.

    Don't overestimate how shyte Japanese websites can be. Here is a link to massive store that sells everything from booze to washing machines, toys, electronics. https://www.biccamera.co.jp/shopguide/report/leaflet/index.html?ref=shop-foot I can't tell you how painful it was last year trying to...

    Theoretical Question

    Going against the grain.....  I have not had a problem with sending stuff via Evri in the past - not that I've sent Airsoft gear that way.  I only use it because it is handy for me as the Post Office is never open when I need to send stuff, and our favourite local convenience store is also a...

    Theoretical Question

    Yep, as above....low value items is not worth the hassle.

    Back to the top button.

    My Logi MX Master 3S mouse has a button that switches the wheel from free spinning to line by line...  Very handy.   There used to be a function in mobile Chrome where you could two-finger double tap the top of the screen and it would send you to the top of the page on your phone/tablet, but...

    M4 Airsoft mag brands

    Shimming just means putting something inside the mag well to hold the mags in the best position for feeding.  Much like you shim your gearbox with various thicknesses of washer to get the gears to mesh nicely. I've got half a dozen layers of leccie tape on the rear wall of my mag well to push...

    M4 Airsoft mag brands

    We have loads of different brands for our mags... I think the only Specna mags are the two that came with mine out of the box.... The rest are whatever I've bought from the classifieds here and Amazon.

    M4 Airsoft mag brands

    I have had to shim the back of my baby Specna's mag well with layers of electrical tape to help some of my mags sit forward enough to feed.  My ICS L85, DE M904 seem happy with anything.  Our big Specna seems less fussy. The boy's ICS L85 is a little fussy, btu all he does it take the mag out...

    Good Attachment manafuctures

    This is my red dot...  had no problems with it and it doesn't seem to shift from zero. https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B08NWZ4MPD/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&th=1 Going to stick it on one of my ol' man's RS Shotguns and see how well it holds up LOL.

    Tappet Plates.

    Well the Nylon 12 plates have arrived and I have to say I am not overly confident in how long they will last.   I'm guessing the return spring hook will be the first to break. Not sure I can justify £60+ for the the POM version though.  WIll have to stock up on genuine ones. Now to find out...

    Good Attachment manafuctures

    If you go for an Odin - I highly recommend the silicone insert.  It makes a massive difference to the amount of noise and you no longer sound like you're playing the maracas when you're running around

    New player looking for a group to join near Oxford

    Strongly recommend RIFT at Abingdon.  Large open site often with vehicles to commandeer. Welcome to the hobby and as said - rocking up on your todd is never an issue...  Just throw yourself into the games and ask about people's pew pews - very often they'll let you have a go too - one chap let...

    ICS L85 fps dropping

    Well....don't I feel a bit of a dick?!?‍? Not sure how I missed this on the last few strip downs.... Teeth must have been disintegrating bit by bit. Luckily had a few project/educational gearboxes lying around with metal teethed pistons.  Just chrono'd her and she's at 332fps on 0.2 bbs and...
