    RIFs on a Plane

    When I went to Hong Kong. The airlines were fine. It was recomended to me to get two receipts for tax reasons.  At Hong Kong Airport I got sent to an inspection office where they coded it as a war game item. I put it in my case and had no probs.  A friend also recommends splitting it in 2 and...

    co2 seals

    Hi I need a rare seal for a Ares DSR-1. I actually got a swift reply from Ares that they don't have them any more. I have tried various Ares retailers with no luck.  I'm at a bit of a dead end at the mo. I'm not sure if you can 3D print rubber / nitrile.  Any help appreciated. Seal AMP-G-008

    Rare guns. Should you buy them

    I have just stumbled across a S&T DSR-1. It's the air cocking type in tan.  I didn't know they did it in tan and it  comes with all sorts of barrel attachments and a quick release silencer.  It's not cheap. I have the ares gas and love it but thus looks amazing in tan.

    WE M16A1's, any good?

    Hi. I don't know what the VN"s are worth now but it's a definite keeper regardless of the offers.  If its your first GBB this would be my pecking order.  Based on first gun, cost,  performance, parts availability, shits and giggles. 1)  A huge shout out to the GHK G5 2)  Fast mover on the...

    WE M16A1's, any good?

    Hi. I purchased one from zero one about 4 years ago with 3 spare mags. I knew the plastic nozzles were shite so I got an RA tech Ali nozzle from China the same week. Apparently at one point they were sending out 2 nozzles with them in the hope you wouldn't complain. My plastic nozzle broke in...

    Info on Ares DSR-1

    Hi. I have just picked up a gas Ares DSR-1.   Info and parts are very scarce. Does anyone own / tune / tweak them.  I saw a video saying they are AEG barrel and hop rubber.  Has anyone tested other  rubbers. Any info appreciated  Cheers

    TM Hi Capa mag won't fill up with gas

    Firstly simply take the plastic base plate off and tighten the Philips screw.  They work loose. Failing that take the base out and reseat the seal with silicon grease

    advice required - ww1 "trench tommy"

    Hi.  Sorry your request is well out of my league.  When I was in HK there was a couple of shops that had amazing uniforms with excellent attention to detail. Sorry I can't remember the names.  However, have you looked on Ali express there is all sorts of stuff. You may be able to find someone...

    Post covid shottie gas project.

    Hi. Like many, this project was started a long time ago. If you are a lover of shotguns you know the H&S mad max shottie shells are terrible. After acquiring x10 madbul Co2 shells a friend lathed up an adapter to run through the gun. Post covid I have dusted it all off and only 2 madbul...

    Collectable Thompson appraisal

    Hi I was in Hong Kong in 2013 when I picked this up. It is the cyma version licensed by cyber gun. I think they promptly relaunched as snow wolf. I kept the on line  press cuttings on smashing the factory up and reviews on the gun. Its a bit of a collectors piece and the paperwork backs that...
