    A 'Proper' loadout?

    For FG garments I'd look at Invader Gear, I've been using their combat shirts for quite some time and the FG pattern called Everglade, despite being a knockoff since the original pattern was discontinued in favour of the X variants (iX as seen in my pfp, FG-X and AU-X), is still decent. Gear...

    Hop up system update

    Replace one part at the time and see how it affects performance.. It's also easier to troubleshoot. Mind you that by changing any of these components *might* require a different nozzle (both length and shape of the tip).

    specna arms edge 2.0 H20 - issues with shimming, bb curving left with hop and FPS.

    not really, the grip can shift its angle when tightened (the flat part doesn't sit flush with the bottom of the gearbox and can tilt) and this throws off the motor angle relative to the bevel gear, resulting in horrible sounds and accelerated wear (sometimes straight up damage) on the weakest...

    specna arms edge 2.0 H20 - issues with shimming, bb curving left with hop and FPS.

    Your grip is most likely touching the receiver, which then throws off both the height and angle. I suggest using grip spacers or sanding down the top part of the grip, so that when everything is assembled and tightened down there is still a very slight gap between receiver and grip.

    The 'What have you just bought' Thread

    Never said it wasn't expensive... just not THAT expensive :) Brand new in the box with the same accessories retails for 3.5k

    The 'What have you just bought' Thread

    New thermal optic for me (let's call it a birthday present). Infiray Jerry YM 2.0, found a 2nd hand one with just 6h of usage for not *that* much (2.3k). Then a new "workshop" chrono (acetech 6000 mk3), a bunch of nitecore 4000mAh 18650s, some nitecore rechargeable AAs and a battery charger.

    Well Socom Tactical won't ever be getting my money again!

    You lot really have nothing better to do eh? I completely understand the hate towards KM and his mates, there are many things about him i don't like myself but you forget to mention that the point of investing money into opening a store to sell something is to earn money, naturally a niche shop...

    Air ratio question for a DMR

    Drop the weight down to 0.32, according to maths you should "only" need a 420mm barrel but keep in mind that air volume isn't everything, there are factors like piston mass and initial/final (piston) velocity and initial pressure spike to take into account.. Stuff i can't explain but it's there.

    The 'How Did Your Airsoft Day Go? Thread

    Don't worry guys, hit calling can be shit anywhere.. Last Sunday i was prefiring a piece of cover an opponent kept popping out of (in the same place) and he took a 32 rps burst to the face without even flinching 😂😂😂 But anyhow, i think we're going to switch from Sunday morning to Friday night...

    Gearbox... how much grease?

    18 rps on a solink v2 seems low to be fair, the thing should come out of the factory set up at 46k rpm and 100% torque which should put you in the 33/35 rps region on a 11.1v and about 25 on a 7.4v. There could definitely be grease on the levi sensors, but again I'd be more worried about the...

    Lightweight ARs

    Welcome to lightness! I'd go specna/dboys, you can get them pretty lightweight (given you accept to spend money where necessary). My M4s are both sub 2kg fully loaded (battery, full 450rnd g&g metal mag and in one case a thermal optic) but they weren't cheap to build and now they don't look...

    Medical advice/help.

    Everything will have an impact on your knees. Best compromise imo is to ditch any form of load bearing, get a very short gun with a drum mag (think arp9 and similar) and keep minimal supplies (bbs/water) in a small backpack. Literally can't go lighter than this, until you fully recover.

    As a new player, since December, how do I deal with cheaters?

    Keep firing until they start bitching about the pain. Preferably while aiming for exposed/less protected parts (including the face, if necessary). That simple. Oh and get very close to them before doing the above.

    This is wild they allowed mags in pistols if holsterd this was bound to happen

    Same, this is also the first rule people learn when they play with us, you wear your eyepro from the moment you step out the car and you take it off whenever you step back into the car to go home. Said rule should also be enforced in safe zones (to whoever might start bitching about the meaning...

    Help with upgrades on G&G wild hog

    Apart from the useless rants about rate of fire and "potential" danger (seriously, if i get my eyepro shot off my face it's my fault because i haven't secured it properly). No point in getting within 1 fps from the limit because not all chronos are made equal. 10 FPS below the limit is still...
