    Silverback TAC-41 Lite

    Picked up a Lite Sport the other week for my lad so he could try bolt action gaming without having to lend him one of my (expensive) rifles. I built it up with a 100N spring (a 120N for 2.3J is included too) and other than dropping a suppressor on the end of it, it's stock on 0.40g ammo. He's...

    The forever increasing amount of ghillie suits

    And? ???‍♂️ Anyone not wearing one is an NPC anyway, casual cannon fodder ?

    The forever increasing amount of ghillie suits

    This is pretty much what I did. Bought a Pulsar Thermion Duo and then went ghillie bashing... You can pay to hide, but I'll pay to find. ?

    Silverback MDR-X tl;dw version - let some other mug buy these bin-fire versions until they fix it

    If I'm spending nearly 600 readies on a rifle, you're damn sure I'm gonna read the instructions/watch manufacturer's videos. Did with my SRS. Did with my Tac41, did with the MDRX. I want to understand a platform so I don't break it. Not all airsofters are the same, I don't think it fair to tar...

    Silverback MDR-X tl;dw version - let some other mug buy these bin-fire versions until they fix it

    It’s hugely overblown issues. Luke hadn’t read the instructions on how to change the battery, you don’t remove all the pins. Whilst they are noisier than a typical AEG they do actually perform brilliantly. No doubt Silverback will revise the bevel gear, but no one’s had gearbox failure, it...

    Silverback MDR (available for pre-order)

    Just bog standard for now. I’m using it more of a platform to work on than game with for now.    Most after market barrels don’t fit due to the barrel notches being very slightly different. A lot of after market buckings don’t feed, or get torn up by the nubs, especially the high nub. The...

    Silverback MDR (available for pre-order)

    Difficult to explain and I've not had anyone else fire it since I've only been back garden plinking. With the gearbox being essentially right next to your head when you cheeky weld, it's naturally going to be pretty damn loud to the user. Suppressor doesn't make much difference as expected.  As...

    Silverback MDR (available for pre-order)

    So had mine a little while now. Had it in bits to see what's what and so here's a few things I've come across. If using the high nub, be very careful when putting the hop wheel back on. Ensure that when you put it on the dotted side (for the clickers) is facing outwards towards to the two...

    Silverback MDR (available for pre-order)

    Longbow have had their stock arrive so the pre-orders will be sent out after release day.  On a side note, Silverback have dropped a load of YouTube instructional videos on virtually everything to do with teching on the rifle. Looks incredible, very simple to work on!

    Silverback MDR (available for pre-order)

    I've got one on pre-order. But, I'm a bit of a Silverback slag so they could release a steaming poop and I'd still buy one even if it were a wall hanger. Planning on using mine as a DMR, but we'll see how it feels once it arrives.  Biggest issue for me so far is the battery compartment, or...

    Less is more, thus shaved is more than bushed.. Warhead brushless question

    I've got 4x Warheads - they're fantastic motors. Never had any problems other than a user error (lol) with me breaking a tab. It was easily sorted though. :)

    cheapest / reliable "project gun"

    Err, as reliable as anything else. I've blown mine up numerous times but purely because I've done what you plan to do haha! Out the box they're fine, with basic tinkering still fine. Only issue is the triggers being a bit crap (standard bullpup) but that can be worked around. :)

    cheapest / reliable "project gun"

    Some form of P90. I picked up a Cybergun version for about 140 quid. The beauty is that the gearbox is only held in with two screws in the butt stock. So you're not wasting time getting the gun in bits, it's literally seconds to get the gearbox free. :)
