    Double Eagle M906C - Internal upgrades / tinkering

    No, the classic army one is all I've got in terms of V2 gearboxes.  I'm aware my motor does get very hot when spamming single shot, so the temptation to go big with the replacement is quite strong.  But if it could just be the etu messing with me... Then maybe I'll go shopping - can you let me...

    Double Eagle M906C - Internal upgrades / tinkering

    Hi chaps. Well, I've successfully negotiated an afternoon at Special Ops 'The Fireplace' which was great fun.  My MP5 ran like a champ (thanks again @CallumT20) but I have a hankering to get my DE 906C back in the game.   Unfortunately, as previously noted, the Falcon MOSFET is dying again. ...

    Converting from mini-Tamiya to Deans...

    Success!   The beast is ALIVE cheers all :)   (I'll add a couple of pics here) Indeed.  Being a fan of the gun in the Battlefield games etc, I had to get one of these stubby AKs eventually.   This one has the 'interesting' customised paintwork.  I knew I wouldn't mind an excuse to...

    Converting from mini-Tamiya to Deans...

    Well I suppose I could :D    But often cabling space is at a bit of a premium (and it is a bit in this case) so I prefer to make it all 'go native' Cheers guys - thanks 👍

    Converting from mini-Tamiya to Deans...

    Hi ho!    Well it's been a while but I'm expecting to go to a skirmish or CQB session for :checks notes: the second time this year, I think. And to celebrate this I went a bit bonkers and bought another gnu.  Yay!    I couldn't resist a nice little Cyma AK74SU that the previous owner...

    Best place to buy batteries?

    Cheers, quite a bit of choice and the prices are reasonable ?

    Best place to buy batteries?

    Hi all,  I'm in the rather scary position of having lost a couple of my Lipo batteries.  I think I've checked all my gnus to make sure they're not plugged in, but damned if i can find 'em.   Anyway, upshot is that i need a couple of 7.4v and maybe a little 11.1v too, around 1400-1600 mah...

    The VFC / Umarex HK416 Owners Thread

    Nice to see someone joining this topic - @Mtemprell I think you'll absolutely love your new 416.   I have had a long-time itch for an MP7 which is what got me here (searched for 'MP7' in case there's a super-cheap one out there - I must have one, one day) Sadly, as mentioned elsewhere in this...

    Geoffs- differences between "precision" and "super"

    They're demonstrably almost as indestructible as normal bb's, even if you expose them to moisture and sunlight.  So i think that's a bit silly tbh. You have to work really hard to break them down.  I just went into my garden and picked up a handful that have been out there for months, they look...

    Double Eagle M906C - Internal upgrades / tinkering

    Hi guys, been a while since I've been around these parts... A combination of being skint through trying out a lower-paid job (in a much better one now thankfully), knackered knees and ankles, and worst of all a bad case of tinnitus caused by a grenade going off right next to me in a very...

    HPA magwell adaptors

    I bought an Airtac adapter, and with a simple twist of the regulator knob on the air tank, I made something inside my beloved VFC HK416 perform a Rapid Unscheduled Disassembly.   It went from 'sluggish' to 'busted' with one ill-judged moment.  A bit of metal broke off, not sure if it's from the...

    Sniper, what would you buy?

    I bought a cheapo Rossi VSR clone for £100 off a boneyard sale.  I've had some good fun with that.  It's definitely more accurate than all but one of my AEGs so if you want to do some garden target shooting, then something similar should do you well. When I took it to the field i got 3 kills...

    Is this the ultimate air soft cheat code???

    Well, I had to drag that image out of the history folder, for old time's sake  ;)   :D Got me seriously interested in one of those as I enjoyed playing at The Fireplace.  And I've always fancied a pump action just for the giggles. Available in...

    2x optic or red dot for outdoor airsoft?

    I think that might count as a Lesser-Spotted Single Entendre
