  • Hey, has anyone been to "Dragon Valley Airsoft" in South Wales before? If so, how was it? We've been a bit disappointed by our more local sites so if anyone has any recommendations for sites in the South West, am all ears.

    I have a mate who was a regular there and he said it is always really good. 

    I recommend Skirmish Exeter - they run Saturdays and really invest in their infrastructure like car parks and the tracks leading up to site. 

    Cheers

    It’s a great site. I hear they’re probably not running any games in the short term as they operate on a MOD site and are at the mercy of MOD training dates.

    Order from WGC has "arrived" but unsure if I'm supposed to go and pick it up from the parcel force depot or if its being delivered? Received email from WGC saying its ready for pick up. View attachment 130452

    Sorry to hear that. Was the order over £135?

    Parcel Force's custom payment system is a little slow, they generally wait till they have the package then they send out a letter with the 16 digit code in which you can then pay online - this can add an extra 5 days onto the shipping time.  What you can do is phone them up when you see the package at the local depot and then ask for the reference code and pay.  Why they don't just give you this information is beyond me.

    @RogerborgYeah it sadly was £178, had to pay £35 to customs. 

    @ak2m4Luckily rang them Saturday to ask why it had said revised custom charge, and paid over phone on Saturday. Lucky, as I still havent acc received the letter so I would still be clueless / magazine-less otherwise

    Has anyone had much experience ordering from WGC recently? Theyve the only place thats got the mags I need instock at a reasonable price (£38 vs £68 in UK retailer), have checked and even with shipping it is still considerably cheaper.

    I placed an order with them for a Cyma m14 rail and a pair of desert marpat trousers and they took about 2 weeks to come through. No issues at all.

    I have used them several times, absolutely no problems with my orders.

    You've not said you factored in VAT and the £12 or so import fee?

    Got the GBB pistol out of storage today, but when I shoot some of the mags I get a face full of gas / lube. Doesnt happen with all mags, only some. Is it because I over lubed something before storing it? The pistol itself is heavily used and about 5 years old

    Was it stored with gas in it?

    JamesAirsofterAgent
    JamesAirsofterAgent
    @gavinkempsellthe mags all were stored with gas in

    @matas17mags range from 2-5 y/o, will have a looksy at the oil rings cheers

    Anyone have experience with ordering from EVIKE Europe? Went through to make an order but couldnt spot anywhere to put a UKARA so the grinches at customes dont destroy me rif

    Hi,

    I ordered from them a while back and put my ukara in the address. They didnt see it, and did email me asking for it. was all ok from then in.

    Yup, i-force dual panes nearly work for me, depending on venue, weather, exertion and anti-fog gloop, but really, fan ventilation fixes everything.

    Used to use fogtech DX - which was ok-ish until one day it completely failed (high heat/humidity), and I couldn't see a damned thing most of the gameday.

    Fans are the way to go - especially as I wear glasses inside a set of goggles. I wouldn't go back to wipes/sprays. Near as dammit zero fogging even on 30deg game days. Amazeballs.

    Either fans again, or I have MuckOff for the regular glasses we have - there is a definite knack to applying these lotions properly.

    Has anyone been to Spartan CQB recently? Hoping to head down with some friends this weekend, didnt realise the price had gone up so much :')

    Has anyone had experience with the S&T/ SW k98k? Version one, seen one selling for £80 with two mags and I am incredibly tempted

    EvilMonkee

    Yeh they are fine, just don't expect fireworks for a £100 gun.  £80 with 2 mags seems a decent deal.

    Got ye thanks 

    Is anyone heading to the Jack's Wood front line events game? Looking at going with a few uni oals but we just don't know what side to pick lol

    Is there a GBB Luger thats generally considered the best?

    I had the same question a while back with TT's and Makarovs. I got the same response. KWC may be the only reasonable option I'm afraid.

    Tbf, the makarov is the opposite story, the we version of that is imo the best blowback option out there.

    Cmon tm prove me wrong....

    In my experience Ive never had an issue with the KWC makarov's but parts are impossible to find. The we makarovs on the other hand seem to be 50/50 if they will work out of the box or not

    Its been going for a few months  . Its quite small at the moment but they are hopeful of extending in the future . Its proper Cqb  , fast and furious .

    Thanks for the info, one of the things I like the sound of is the 20 player cap not a fan of CQB sites when they're full as it just becomes a slog

    Wheres the best place to look at attending historical / film(? i think its called this)sim events? Seen a few posts on here mentioning it and it seems interesting

    Picked up glandular fever the week before my first skirmish in two years fuming. Hoping all good by Sunday but somehow I don't think so annoyingly

    Hope it clears up in time.  If not don't push it or you'll probably have a shit day and make recovery much harder.

    There'll be other days...

    Get well soon fella.

    Glandular fever is a bitch. I've had it.☹️

    Cheers both, touch wood gonna be able to go to the game on Sunday as long as symptoms have cleared up thank christ

    Is it generally okay to use ammo thats a couple years old or best to grab some new? Got quite a bit left over from previous games but don't really want it damaging kit just as I'm getting back into it.

    Thanks for the info. I don't actually know what barrels they are, whatever come stock in the CM16 and Cyma m1a1 lol. Its a couple open bottles (with lids) that have been kept at the back of a cupboard.

    RostokMcSpoons

    I'll be guessing they're both standard barrels.
    Just make sure no dirt is knocking around in the BB containers (and clean the barrels too, for that matter).

    Others here may tell you you're running the risk of doom and disaster if you don't run Geoff's Super Precision BB's anyway, so with the caveat that that is actually safe / good advice, I'd say you'll be fine.

    The only problems I've had are with 0.43g bio that had been open for over 2 years, and had started to craze. One kersploded inside a 2.3J sniper and I binned off the rest of them.

    Anyone heading to Spartan CQB on the 31st? Will be mine and my friends first game in over 2 years, hoping everything still works
