    Need help on a M4/Other Rifle choice!

    ICS G33, nice, unique rifle with fantastic performance, and below your budget. http://www.landwarriorairsoft.com/cgi-bin/sh000001.pl?REFPAGE=http%3a%2f%2fwww%2elandwarriorairsoft%2ecom%2f&WD=g33&PN=ICS%2dG33%2dCompact%2dAssault%2dRifle%2dics233%2ehtml. I got one and loved it, and I...

    small plate carriers!

    I have heard the begadi small type plate carriers are good. I personally use the Viper Molle Chest rig, though I had to toss the rear molle belt in favour of a simple strap to make it fit. I'm about 5ft10 but I'm pretty slight, so finding rigs that fit is an absolute pain. Problem is I'm...

    airsoft etiquette

    If an airsofter is hit and in the line of fire it is common sense to get out of the way, in fact all of the sites I've played at make a point of mentioning this in their briefing when there are new players. That way if you choose not to move out of the line of fire its your own stupid fault

    JD Airsoft Crannock or First and Only Manchester

    Thanks guys, I ended up not going but my friend did. He had a pain sorting out his UKARA through the shop and when he did get his gun, it kind of imploded two weeks later. While this isn't JD airsofts fault, their attitude while dealing with his UKARA was what put him off using them again...

    3 point slings, good idea bad idea?

    I found that I couldn't get it to hang right on my G33 either, loved it on my M4, fantastic and useful piece of kit. But on the G33, because of the positioning of the rear sling mount even with the use of an RIS sling mount on the front I couldn't quite get it to hang comfortably. I resorted to...

    Best AEG for skirmishes?

    Or indeed battery and charger ;) . I never touch batteries that come with chinese guns, and chargers that come with them have a tendancy to eat batteries.

    Beginners Set Up - Help me out?

    G&G Combat Machines are phenomenal, for just over a hundred pound you can get a gun that runs with all the classic G&G efficiency, it could do with upgrades, sure, but for such a cheap rifle out of the box they have lovely range and a decent rate of fire, as well as pretty nice externals...

    Which G36...? Project Development

    I have the ICS G33. Comes with the M4 magwell right from the off (both the M4 and the G36 mag release systems work), has a solid, extendable stock and four rails on the front handguard, including a long RIS at the bottom which goes right back to the magwell, making it significantly longer than...

    Some advice please

    M14, has the feel of a sniper, but the effectiveness of an AEG and most of them are pretty damned accurate and long ranged right out of the box anyway. That is of course, if you're set on a sniper.

    JD Airsoft Crannock or First and Only Manchester

    Ok, so I'm headed off to one of these two stores mid January. I've never actually been to an airsoft store before, I've only ever ordered online, but I'm wondering if anyone has experience of both stores and what the variety of guns there is? I've had a look on the websites and it seems like no...

    Choosing My First Rifle

    There are some nice extras available for the sig, and since they have such a small battery compartment they are a great excuse to start using Lipos (I will never look back). The sig is a nice choice, a guy at my site has the 550, 551 and 552 and they're all pretty nice guns, though the 550 is...

    We're giving away a CA M15!

    I signed up because I think this forum needs more support, I'm on a couple of others and this one doesn't seem to have the issues I would commonly associate with them. Plus it helps me be a bit more sociable and anything that does that is a good thing in my book :D . Now that everyone is...

    MagPul PDW/R

    Ah, glad they managed to get it finished in time, even though there's almost no chance I'll be able to afford it :(
