    Double bell Type 56 (Chinese AK) AEG

    Very tempted! Can i justify another classic AK though?! Looks like a few UK sellers.

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

    Mags out of everything, AEGs/AEPs cleared, barrel socks placed on anything that isn't holstered seems to be a sensible - and crucially, very easy - approach. I think removing batteries would be challenging in practice - its a nightmare to get them in and out on some RIFs (my Cyma SR25 is an...

    Novritsch THERMAL anti fog

    Have you got a link? Or are you referring to the older blower units rather than the new thermal demister?

    Novritsch THERMAL anti fog

    Thanks for your feedback - If I end up getting back into indoor CQB where I can't/shouldn't use my woodland mesh, I'll definitely be investing! Nov gets some internet heat so often (not all unfounded I'm sure), but it's things like this where the innovation they bring to some products should be...

    I built a Squad Tracker called Flaresat. It is live now, and I need feedback.

    Unless I've missed it, it doesn't work with any custom maps. So you can't upload an event map onto it for example, and then georeference. For most of our sites (and the separate events that I run which it would otherwise have been ideal for), I would think its unfortunately a non starter on...

    Airsoft in films

    At least he's left the scope protectors on to save that expensive glass from scratches....

    I built a Squad Tracker called Flaresat. It is live now, and I need feedback.

    can it work with OS maps and/or georeferenced custom maps?

    RWA BDS9 Night Hawk Custom - Gas issue.

    That's pretty cold still for standard green gas in a pistol with a heavy metal slide- and especially one that hasn't been given a wipe down and lightly greased on all the touch points between the slide and the body. Give the mags a full charge of gas (with the base facing up and the can upside...

    Classic army Stoner LMG upgrade advice

    Well, I have one - theoretically since December, but out of the box it wouldn't feed so it had to go back to the shop, and once returned (looks like they filed out the feed hole in the hop, and replaced the rubber with a Prometheus purple) it feeds, but every 5th bb or so has about 50% power...

    Battery charger recommendations

    I've had a couple of IMAX B6 AC chargers for a few years now. Probably clones, but have been superb. Very cheap, and usually come with a wealth of connectors. Will charge both nimh and lipo, and will put your batteries into storage mode too after a game day .

    Novritsch THERMAL anti fog

    That's a fair assumption - It works like the back windscreen demister in a car. There was a fellow using the new type at my site a month or so back - absolutely raving about it - said it worked perfectly, and liked how silent it was. I noticed that he velcro'd the battery onto the patch on the...

    S&T AK105 noob help

    I believe that the Specna AK line are all S&T OEM. If that's so, i might imagine that the Specna Magnus rotary hop for an AK (about £10 from memory, including a flat bucking and corresponding nub) should happily fit. I've been extremely impressed by the accuracy and range of my Specna AK with...

    HELP! HPA or AEG!?

    I understand from others (i've never tested it myself) that a 48Ci tank will usually comfortably manage between 1000 and 1400 shots. Obviously there are loads of variables, but as a rough guide for a rifle with a dedicated HPA system (e.g. rather than something short barrelled or a converted...

    The 'How Did Your Airsoft Day Go? Thread

    That seems to sum up my experiences there too. I haven’t been for ages, but when I used to go (maybe once every few months), the experience was very changeable. Some really awesome evenings, others that were distinctly mediocre - the whole experience seemed to wildly swing between the extremes...

    Tokyo Marui Benelli M3 Shorty replacement pump and grip?

    I have restored sticky rubber items by using a cloth soaked in 100% ethanol- I usually have a bottle of it kicking around for cleaning etc purposes (Ebay will get you a bottle for around £10 - very useful). You might find that it removes the degraded rubber.and leaves a non sticky layer of...
