    Midlife crisis!!! GBBR suggestions

    Here's a run through of my own thinking/experiences when I was getting started with the MWS options. Guns Double Eagle / Salvo Precision MWS - all are solid options and the cheapest reliable entry point into GBBRs. Fit and finish is excellent and rivals more expensive guns. Steel trigger...

    Macks airsoft dreamers of the week thread

    If I had false teeth they’d have fallen out of my mouth when I saw this ad.

    Need help identifying

    Old Specna One series? I say that as it looks a lot like mine. Check inside the magwell for a model number

    Midlife crisis!!! GBBR suggestions

    I made the jump to GBBRs a few months ago and have no regrets. I have two Double Eagle MWS clones and cannot fault them. Despite the real-cap mags, necessity of gas management and real-life manual-of-arms essentially meaning you’re playing airsoft on hard-mode, I don’t notice myself...

    +1. I get paid to do things similar to this in my day job and it’s often a stressful and thankless task, so props to Proff and the rest of the admin team.

    Attack Sense

    I know some sites do low power AEG days for youngsters so a bit less intimidating than mixed age groups and much less sting when hit.

    Surprised they lasted 6 hours to be honest!

    The 'How Did Your Airsoft Day Go? Thread

    This one is a week late as it was last Sunday that me and the boy visited the Gaol in Oakham.  With news of their precarious future I rushed to get a booking in for November, fortunate that I did since most (if not all by now) of their remaining dates for 2025 are full. It has always been on...

    Love this, might suggest it at my local site.

    Tokyo Marui Evolt AEG System

    Mariu's take on a GBLS DAS then?  Since becoming a cork-sniffing elitist GBBR user I've lost any interest in AEGs, but I must admit this does look interesting.  I'm not going to hope the blow-back is any better than the NGRS but I could go for a 'mechanically correct' AEG with Marui workmanship...

    The 'What have you just bought' Thread

    I was on the fence for a while but in the end thought fuck it, every airsoft collection needs some colour in it.    I’ve seen a Tiger stripe one already as it happens and it looked great. Once mine gets a bit beaten up from use I plan to do the same.

    First RIF Opinions?

    In an endless sea of multicam-SF-bros that photo is the coolest thing I’ve seen in weeks. Kudos dude.    Yep - been playing for a couple of years but it’s only in recent months that I’ve come to regard slings as more hindrance than help, so unless the game dictates that I’ll need my hands free...

    Chest rigs with rear carry capacity

    Cheers, good suggestions. Warrior 901 with the back panel add on looks like all the capacity of a plate carrier without the bulk so that has gone to the top of my list. No stock of Ranger green so I might end up with boring multicam though.
