Because I am terminally single, and with the weather tomorrow looking rough, I went to Driver Wood today for a sunny, but chilly Saturday game. It was sunny all day, but the temperatures maxed out at 5 celcius, so I ended up leaving the m14 at home (5 celcius is just asking too much of it...)...

Back to Worthing Airsoft today for a much lower numbers day. Only about 40 people booked on, but it really felt like it was only about 35 players. This led to some really top quality gameplay, as it made it a lot easier to move around and have impact. I brought out a bunch of old kit, using my...

Yeah, I feel the same way. There are cameras everywhere in the safe zone, but especially considering all the guns I use are either expensive, or rare, or both, I never leave any of my guns unattended in the safe zone. My backup guns live locked away in my car.

The site itself is amazing, and they put a lot of effort into developing it. The game modes have improved too. But they definitely have a player mentality / general vibe issue for sure. It's not all the players, as I've met some great people there too, but there are definitely issues with some...

Went to Driver Wood today and... I'd love to say it was great, but it was pretty awful. To their credit, the marshalls were trying to police the non-hit taking and I saw them doing a lot of hit-checking today, but holy crap was it bad for non-hit takers today. Also, someone threw a tantrum when...

This is massive for me. They sell lots of weird m700 parts, so as long as I can get them to get stuff in, this'll be a big win for me. However, the Tanaka/KJW m700 is an incredibly niche platform. So this is great news for us weird niche gas bolt action people at least 😂

Difference at the upper ranges of weight are minimal. I've noticed a very minor difference between .43s and .48s at the longer ranges (70m+), and basically no difference between .45s and ,48s. I'm sure there is a difference between .45s and .48s, it's just negligible in practical terms...

Went back to Worthing Airsoft this weekend for my 2nd solo outing in the car;learned from last weekend and brought my trainers so I didn't have my muddy boots on in the car. Also ended up being my first trip with a passenger on the way home as my friend needed a lift back. Wasn't prepared, but...

I use the ASG Ultrair line of gases in my guns. They do high powered red gas, a mid-powered orange gas and their standard "green" gas, which is deceptively in a brown bottle. I also have some Nuprol black gas, because my m14 and SVD need something a little more than red gas when it gets really...

A while ago. Closer to Covid time. He gave up trying after a year

One of my friends has a RS SVD, and he couldn't get them to send him a new gearbox as his stock one has cracked, making the gun a wall-hanger. We just assumed they were either out of business, or wholly disinterested in helping (he wasn't asking for it for free, was willing to pay for a new gearbox)

I'm... slowly getting out of the fat git club, but the plate carrier I've always used is the Warrior Assault Systems RPC and that fits me and my overweight 6'5 frame

I'm using a 4uantum rubber with the large Silent Industries nub in my MTW 308 and that works pretty nicely for .43s at 1.88J. However, I have also widened the window on my PDI barrel because out of the box the window is too small for any of the hop rubbers I like

Went out for my first solo outing since passing my driving test in December and getting myself a car earlier this month. Took myself to Driver Wood for a very muddy, but surprisingly not very wintery game today; if you told me it was March or April with how the weather was today, I might've...

It's a personal choice really, so everyone will have different answers. The conventional wisdom is that heavier BBs will perform better, and the p90 has a short barrel so the cylinder to barrel ratio will play well with heavier BBs. Generally, if you want the best performance, you want to use...
