    The 'What have you just bought' Thread

    Sixmm order actually came in. Should be 2 more items in there,, but they were wrong.. about 80% success rate on this one. Bless 'em for trying their hardest. Can't recommend the HEL-4 replica, not sure if I'm missing a part or something but it cannot be installed on my M16 (which it is...

    Help needed with wood grips.

    If the shanks of your screws are a wider diameter than the stepped portions inside your current grips' holes, you are necessarily going to lose said steps and you'd have to create new ones with a milling bit or a lot of careful effort by hand. That would be an unusual circumstance though. If...

    Painted MP5SD - Inspo needed!

    They were used a tiny bit by SOF types who could actually paint their guns in Iraq/Afghan but then of course they got desert spray jobs. Google images actually brought up very little. https://www.thefirearmblog.com/blog/2023/10/04/potd-h-k-mp5sd-mim-tech-anti-ir/ I'd see that as a good thing...

    Sixmm.Com Review

    So they sent me the e-mail asking for UKARA after a day or so, I replied as mentioned which went completely ignored. I messaged their whatsapp a couple of days later (also went totally ignored, not even read) then a few days after that I used the contact form on their site to, again, say that...

    Red1 The school

    Last I played (many years ago) the gameplay was limited to inside that one very, very narrow building and was nothing but pure chokepoints and queues to fire a couple of bbs at someone across a room then go back to respawn. Looks like they're still limited to that same building that's far too small.

    Forum issues and down time

    Had this pop in to my business e-mail inbox from @MrTea "Apologies for the roundabout way of messaging you but I've hit a roadblock. The AirsoftForums site appears to be failing to send out two-factor emails, password reset emails and email confirmation emails meaning that I, and probably...

    The 'What have you just bought' Thread

    Odd.. I wonder if that's more down to some strange factor like the straps, the zip pockets or the fact they just recognise them, because they're no bigger than my standard roller suitcase that I always check in as my regular hold bag. I store my issued bags inside my civvie suitcase (no folding...

    Piggyback vs offset

    In airsoft, an Offset mount limits the range you can use the red dot a fair bit more (out of the two options), but hey if you're certain you'll only use it very, very close and you think it looks cool then why not. The very large distance between bore line and red dot with Piggy is a lot less of...

    Sixmm.Com Review

    There were a few items on sixmm I absolutely could not find anywhere else and have wanted for years, so I accepted the risk and ordered (parts only). About a day later I got an e-mail asking for UKARA, so the same policy as WGC reportedly have now. I don't have an active one so I've asked for a...

    V3 Gearbox help

    Most pistons are plastic, often with steel teeth underneath but not always; very common and normal. Pretty sure a steel piston is not usually recommended by most folks in the know, could batter the cylinder head and in turn weak front area of the gearbox casing.

    VFC AEG rail compatibility

    The only VFC AEGs I have are veryyy old, but they had the common AEG spec threads. If you're running in to contradicting reports then it's entirely possible that the mfg has varied their processes and done different specs on different models over time. I've cut a good few AEG upper threads...

    Lightweight ARs

    You're defo not wrong there are other models which are light and hold more than enough ammo, good options for some people. I just like the ergos and already own roughly 1 trillion AR AEG parts and all the right tools and know how everything goes together, so that's what I largely stick to. Plus...

    The 'How Did Your Airsoft Day Go? Thread

    Better reviews than NAF gets thus far. Any of you folks (or anyone else) done both to compare?

    Lightweight ARs

    For years I've had this build idea for a dead basic, retro style, plastic AR AEG that can be my easy to carry backup. I always bring a double-rifle bag to games but usually only just use the one 'main' gun, so having the spare be super light would just be better all around. Plus it'd be good to...
