    I’m wondering how “tough” will the new lockdown tiers will be post lockdown with the new “tougher” system planned for England - I wonder if it’s time to tell myself “that’s all she wrote with Airsoft till spring ‘21?”

    A good example of not having a fucking clue

    when announcing sporting restrictions...

    TENNIS - you stand at opposite ends of the court FFS

    (way over 2m apart)

    But professionals can play - Djokovic lost yesterday in London

    yet you peasants may not

    Open up airsoft, we already know what MED means

    it just means no meelee kills coz we can't get too close

    (and keep your distance from any leper team-mates)

    I think I've come to point where I've largely accepted it'll be that sort of time till I get to play next, at the earliest. Granted that's partly down to being up North wheere things seem to be consistently worse 'tier' wise, and also because a majority of the sites up here seem to be indoor CQB (truth be told, unless there are a bunch of hidden ones I'm not aware of, choices up here are pretty slim full stop).

    Just trying to figure out what to do kit wise. I've got a decent amount of money tied up in arisoft kit... some of which I picked up recently as last week. But I am currently contemplating selling all of my RIFs bar 1 'primary' and a pistol just until we get a clearer picture of the overall landscape. It's a weird time, and as much as I love the hobby there have certainly been some point across this year where I've contemplated just selling up and moving on full stop. Decisions, decisions.

    No, it'll have to come back outdoors from 2nd December or many airsoft sites/businesses will cease to exist.  CQB in tier 3 areas may be hit harder, especially if you consider high ground rents for the indoor sites, nevermind all the other overheads.

    They can't/won't keep bars and pubs shut, so the airsoft industry won't be fobbed off without a legal challenge, in my view.

    My Latest order came in 3 days early and in amongst it was some Red BB’s so I couldn’t resist popping a few out on the AAP-01’s Fun Switch - much to the annoyance of my misses :D

    Mmmm 2 hours to go and will Boris lock us down ???

    S
    Sitting Duck
    if he does then he is a bigger fucking idiot than I thought possible

    lock everything down, so NOBODY goes out

    (except to shop & key workers etc...)

    nurseries, schools, universities still open, but kids mixing with a 1,000 others won't spread & bring back the virus ???

    if NOBODY goes to the pub, eat out etc...

    then wtf is the point of track n trace

    no notifications = no need to get tested

    nobody testing - cases drop drastically

    hooray - it has all been a success

    until next time

    The Lurgy Lockdown - 3rd/4th wave etc...

    COVID-19 doesn't really kill you as such

    instead it is mostly PNEUMONIA caused by influenza, cold/rhino-virus and now COVID-19

    You get an infection/inflamation in your lungs as they fill up with fluid/puss - and that is what causes most of the deaths - pneumonia

    But write down COVID-19

    Did you know that the When the BBC said COVID-19 is THREE times more deadly than the flu - they used a graph that displayed a higher death rate in 1992~2000 for influenza

    So they quickly pulled it and replaced it with one for just 2020

    Now there was 2 x 8 year periods where in 1975~1983 it reached 63,000 deaths pa for influenza/pneumonia

    & also 60,000 pa for 1992~2000

    The last serious outbreak lead to the influenza vaccine programe being rolled out after 2000

    What they are doing is comparing influenza, which we have had started to develop vaccines since 1930, a virus we have a range of vaccines for various strains of flu - comparing it to a new virus we don't have a vaccine for

    So comparing the flu TODAY where 14m get the vaccine, to COVID-19 with NO VACCINE is like comparing apples to oranges

    Plus in 1992~2000 the UK had a much lower population so that 60k would equate to 70,000 deaths today

    But here is the rub...

    Does ANYBODY remember the lockdown, masks & crazy wash wash washing your hands during those 16 years in 1975~1983 & also 1992~2000

    coz I fucking don't remember any of it at all

    (was on another device earlier but here's some pics)

    1) original graph BBC quickly pulled showing outbreak in 90's

    (ooops quick change it)

    View attachment 64556

    2) the one they quickly replaced it with showing just 2020

    View attachment 64557

    3) google showing both were used

    View attachment 64558

    4) history of large flu/pneumonia pandemic in 1992~2000

    (when the flu vaccine then was rolled out in 2000 onwards)

    View attachment 64559

    5) the pandemic in 1975~1983

    View attachment 64562

    and for reference the Spanish Flu in 1918

    View attachment 64561

    Point being when we had a large pandemic twice for 8 years during 75~83 & 92~2000...

    Does anybody remember masks & lock downs back then

    coz I bloody don't

    WOW!!  Come Friday 00:01 the whole of Nottinghamshire is in Tier3 Lockdown - unlucky Notts ‘Softers :(

    Does that apply to outside games?

    MiK

    tier 3 has these (amomgst others)

    You can meet up in groups of up to six people in parks, beaches, countryside or forests

    You are advised not to travel into or out of tier three areas, other than for work, education, youth services or caring responsibilities

    Nottingham (shire) is also having a 9pm alcohol rule too

    So it’s not looking good for anyone in Nottinghamshire

    @Hatchet function over form - you know the make of said Stubby ?

    I'm afraid not. It was just some generic plastic one, probably pick one up for £15-£20. The beauty of the adapter is that you can just select whatever takes your fancy/is available. You can also take a slightly different route as Lee's Precision does a threaded 14mm barrel, but it's about £40, which is a relatively expensive way of achieving the same result.
