    GBB Tech in the Herts/Beds area

    I did indeed, I didn't get very far. There are some good videos out there, but putting everything back together again just created different problems!

    GBB Tech in the Herts/Beds area

    Hello all, Anyone know of any techs in the Hertfordshire/Bedfordshire area that can diagnose/repair GBBRs? I've got a KWC Uzi that I bought off here a few months back. Unfortunately it turned out to be a non-firer, so I'm trying to find someone who might be able to have a look and see if it can...

    Gunfire (Poland) / gun-fire.co.uk

    Just in case anyone is considering ordering from Gunfire recently, I gave it a go and here's a breakdown of cost/timings: Gun £416.01 Mags 5x £7.44   = £37.20 Shipping £23.50 Import £108 Total: £584.70 Delivery: 21 days  (Four phone calls from UPS of such poor quality that they had me...

    JG T3-K3 (G3) as a DMR Base

    I personally did like mine; it was creaky and lightweight but nothing broke on it for me (just try to refrain from HK slapping it ? ). The main reason I got rid of mine was the magazines; all the high-cap ones I had, the hatch at the top wore down quickly and just wouldn't stay closed. Many BBs...

    airsoft things you don't understand

    People standing in the open at the back firing shots from 80m+. I mean, if you feel safe enough to stand in the open without getting hit, chances are your rounds aren't doing much different on the other end... ?

    Taiwangun Shipping Disruption (Brexit Related Content)

    On the topic of ordering from TG, has anyone else lost the option to select a delivery on the website? I was willing to gamble an order due to them having something out of stock elsewhere, but when checking out, I select Great Britain, tick a 'terms of delivery box', and then an error saying'...

    Help Me Build a Disposable One-use Automatic Uzi

    If you can make the outer shell, sticking an AEP inside it would be the only option I think (other than going gas). They can be picked up for £50-£60 or so: https://www.patrolbase.co.uk/airsoft-pistols-all?*8=9 If it was me, I'd probably buy one KWC mini-uzi, vacuum form the shell using it...

    The Cursed Airsoft Guns Thread, or 'My Eyes, the Goggles do Nothing'

    I love classic guns, but this one must stop immediately.

    Cyma Products

    Rather than me create a new topic; does anyone have any experience of CYMA vs JG when it comes to their MP5s? I bought a JG MP5K PDW last year (haven't had a chance to field it due to Covid), and now see that CYMA have introduced the PDW to their Blue Edition range. I'm toying with the idea of...

    Overpowered Ghillies ? Your Thoughts

    Unless it's done exceptionally well, I haven't really experienced ghillie suits having a positive impact on players I'm facing. If anything I've noticed they seem to give the wearer a false sense of confidence in their sneaking abilities. Last game day I placed, I had a chap who just kept coming...

    Does Airsoft Hurt ? Complete Newbie Question - Kids Looking to Get Into Sport

    I think it's important to consider how mature they are as kids as well. It's not just about if they can take getting shot, it's also about whether they're going to be able to be safe whilst playing.  Airsoft guns are toys but they're still more than capable of knocking a tooth our or blinding...

    Scale Models Anyone?

    I've taken to turning Tesco photo-frames into small scenes in 1/72. Not quite up to the same level as those above; I need to focus more on the quality of my painting and weathering effects etc, but it's tricky without an airbrush. Anyway, keeps me busy.

    Potential New Site

    RIFT are Hertfordshire based and have expanded to a number of new sites recently. Might be worth giving them a shout.

    Worst / Most Disappointing RIF Purchase?

    Haha, where do I start? AGM Sten - Semi auto only, quite slow rate of fire, and began to shake itself to bits within a few games. Everything became wobbly and loose no matter how much tightening was done. S&T Stirling - Poor accuracy, and within 3 games the semi-auto broke (the only repair...

    How to Tackle Sweat in Goggles

    I purchased some Bolle X800s after reading this thread, and can confirm they do work really well. I had some condensation issues first off because I was wearing a coat and was dripping with sweat, but after a wipe, they remained completely mist free the whole day.
