    Pesky new work filter now blocks AFUK. Handily I also use my own tablet for notes and they can’t block that ?

    Help needed - Really want to start Airsoft BUT..

    I'm a mountain biker with the occasional foray into gravel biking. Both frames were written off within about 6 weeks of each other last year, at no point will my airsoft addiction come close to costing me what that did! ? Anyway, I digress. I looked at Specna and G&G for my first pew and...

    Gun/Airsoft shops closing down

    Our sport's not exempt from the usual issues with brick & mortar shops unfortunately. I can see it becoming that the only physical shops will be the ones attached to sites that are only open on game days or ones with a big enough online presence that can subsidise the shop.

    The 'How Did Your Airsoft Day Go? Thread

    Had a good game at Z-Mart last night. It's been a while since I'd been and they've continued to improved things, which was probably part of the reason why it was the most people I've seen on a Thursday night - there were over 30 of us playing. Took the bro-in-law too, so to keep up the ruse that...

    THE TM MWS thread

    Having previously fitted the RA-Tech NPAS, I swapped it out for a Jaeger Precision one today because the RA-Tech one is such a faff to adjust. The Jaeger one's definitely an improvement. After briefly flirting with 1.4J after installation, I'm now at a much less spicy 1.05J. That'll do nicely.

    Airsoft helped me with weight loss

    Well done! Having taken my eye off the fitness ball of late, I'm now up to 15 stone. So this is just what I needed to kick my arse into gear!

    Santa wish list...

    Just don't call it (kicking) mustang!! 7. could be Jorit - then when it's tea time you'll be sure to call Jorit's Santa's not bringing me any airsoft goodies this year, he has got the elves sourcing me a new turntable though.

    At what cost?

    Kit is all pretty generic inexpensive stuff - apart from PPE, I never skimp on that. The MWS is my most expensive pew, but it'll get used plenty and probably outlast my playing days. It's still cheaper than cycling, especially when you discover you need to replace two frames in the space of...

    e-Bikes.

    My bike's still powered by cake, but I've a couple of mates who have e-bikes and they find them great fun, both are on Specialized Turbo Levo's of one variant or another which are way over budget and far more bike than it sounds you want anyway. That said, my parents have the hybrid style ones...

    Tell Us a Gag. Please!

    A man's lived with his wife for 25 years and all that time he's told her never to look in the safe, but one day the wife gets curious and while he's at the pub has a look. In there she finds £40,000 in cash and three eggs. Upon his return from the pub she asks him about it and he eventually...

    Where did your forum name originate?

    Mine's our house nickname from Uni, kinda still applies nowadays although rather than studenty craziness it's two boys (three if you include me) and all the hobbies - airsoft, football, MTB, surfing, snowboarding, paddleboarding, cricket, rugby, athletics, gaming .... and many more! - basically...

    Help Me to Convince a Site Owner to Switch to Joules Please

    It's a much better idea to be arguing that the site test a pew as it's intended to be used i.e on the ammo going through it in-game. After that the unit you use becomes less relevant, although joules is easier to apply because the limit is the same whatever the BB weight and therefore less...

    Scammers

    Just throwing this out in a devil’s advocate kind of way: If you enforced a post count and a scammer abides, would we then be giving them some kind of false legitimacy? A questionable PM from a new user is a slam dunk, you might think a bit longer if they’ve got 50 posts. All buyer beware at...

    Guitars

    Bassist here! Late-comer to the party (2019), always fancied it and when the eldest started learning I said I would too. Obviously his Squier Mini-strat hasn’t been played in ages but I still play regularly.   Here’s my Ibanez SR370.

    CQB questions

    1) no idea. But more gas is better than no gas, it's not like it goes off. 2) 0.2's are fine indoors, all the reasons for heavier ammo go away indoors. 3) You'll only fail if you don't have fun. 4) To go all speedi-boi you'll need an HPA pistol that takes M4 hi-caps (or a drum mag) and lycra...
