    Recommended pistols for snipers?

    Yeah, I forgot bout the full auto Glocks. A lot of people use them as well but I think they can be hard to come by.

    Recommended pistols for snipers?

    The Tokyo Marui MK23 pistol is supposed to be pretty solid out of the box, not sure if it's full metal or not though. The Hi-Capa 5.1 is one with plenty of aftermarket parts to improve it over time, so that's one to consider as well. .

    Is it Illegal to convert Antique Caliber Rifles to airsoft?

    A person is guilty of an offence if— (a)he manufactures a realistic imitation firearm; Taken from the VCRA act legislation. I personally wouldn't do it, there's plenty of ways to get IFs safely within the law, including period guns.

    ASPUK (Airsoft Sniper Parts UK)

    I was looking at these guys to potentially upgrade my sniper. Can anyone shed some light light on PTFE hop, a Google search says it's something called mega teflon mod and I get the basics of it is to improve air seal or something? How does it compare to something like r-hop/flat-hop etc?

    Gunfire (Poland) / gun-fire.co.uk

    Just ordered a CYMA 701 from them with the intention to upgrade it myself as a project in the new year. They offer free two-tone which is a nice extra on top of their low prices compared to UK retailers. The delivery estimate is nine days, but that’s Christmas day so I don’t expect it to arrive...

    Long AEG under £200

    Can confirm, I'd recommend as well. It's already pretty decent out of the box. Although I haven't had mine for quite a while now as it's off getting a paintjob :(

    What was going to be a simple rewiring is now a complete headache!

    That looks like a good option. The quick release spring is a decent feature.

    What was going to be a simple rewiring is now a complete headache!

    I have an old GR16 CRW sitting around and decided to turn it into a project gun where I creatively find a way to rewire it (so the battery sits in a foregrip I have) because I didn't like having it in the 'spare mag' on the side, see picture below. Probably going to require some drilling  :D...

    I bought a Nuprol thing.....

    Wait, Nuprol is bad? I bought http://www.patrolbase.co.uk/stanag-magazines/nuprol-stanag-30140rnd-adjustable-mid-cap-magazine-x5-bundle.htm#.WYtm7lGGOUk for when I get my gun back from being painted so I won't get to try them for however long that takes  <_<

    VSR 10 upgrade parts help

    I've been researching this recently as I want the experience of upgrading something myself. I came across this on Reddit - https://www.reddit.com/r/airsoft/comments/5rejui/holy_grail_bolt_action_sniper_guide_building_a/ Basically for a VSR it seems you'd want, in the long run, to get eveything...

    Issue with G&G GR16 CRW

    Got this old gun from someone I know so there are issues to be expected. But when I shoot it, it will be fine and then all of a sudden it stops shooting, however it sounds and feels like the motor is still moving and a loud clunking noise starts and it feels like something somewhere is loose. In...

    Help for Heroes Charity Event

    Thanks! Although I might be buying a couple of guns from someone I know, but they run hot so they will probably need some spring clipping.

    Help for Heroes Charity Event

    Really interested in coming along to this as I haven't been to The Mall yet. However, I'm hopefully sending my gun of to GearTech for a paint commission this week so it might not be back in time, I'll have to get an estimate on lead times and then book around that but hopefully I'll see some of...
