    Send me some pics, I'll send it over to my friend who's a GWOT era collector 🙂

    TIL that VFC MP5 handguards don't fit on a Classic Army MP5.

    In other news - is the VFC MP5 any good?

    Luke made a video on it a while ago, the TL;DR version is.....

    No, it's not good.

    Fair enough. Anybody after a KAC rail for an MP5? ?

    VFC are real sized so fit on VFC , PTW , G&G stamped , SRC steel version and Cyma Steel version as well as TM NGRS

    Dad's will has just paid out. This could be dangerous....

    Good God, my Mum's estate took around 6-7 months to complete.

    Sorry for your loss anyway.

    Yeah, we had a buyer then the house flooded and it took the better part of a year to put right (trust me, it was proper fucked).

    Sorry to hear that. My dad went last February after his house flooded, and we've just this month got the final payment.  I've formed an active loathing for insurers, solicitors, HMRC, councils and utilities.

    Anyway, I've just bought a couple of new toys, because we're none of us on a rehearsal.

    Can anyone tell me the outer diameter of the barrel nut on a TM NGRS MK18? I need to see if the wrench will fit my URX nut!

    I can't get my rail off as can't find my damn Allen keys, but it looks to be about 30mm?

    Cool, ta!

    Don't suppose there's anyone here with Engineering experience that wants a job as an Account Manager is there?

    Anybody have a Krytac handy they could check something on? I have a mates one he's asked me to look at and the hop arm pin is missing. Need a size so I can get a replacement!

    If you're new - watch this. 




    If you're not, watch it anyway and then go check out his other videos!

    as with all things it's a balance.

    good hardware allows you to leverage skill, it means all that effort getting into the right position, having a good aim etc isn't wasted because the gun doesn't shoot where you point it.

    i do agree with his point that you don't need to be spending megabucks on hardware to get a passable level of performance, a cyma with a few key tweaks will do 80% of the job.

    I absolutely agree but his main point is that a lot of noobs think the reason they're not hitting things is the gun when 90% of the time it's their lack of skill/awareness.

    Adolf Hamster
    Adolf Hamster
    true, but it works both ways, you give a skilled player a nerf gun they might still be able to get kills, but nowhere near as many as they could if they had decent hardware. going exclusively down either route can only ever take you so far.

    this is ofc if we're taking "skill" as excluding teching skill, as the basic knowledge of say not buying off-brand .12's for playing outdoors could also be regarded as part of skill and experience same as psychology, sneakiness etc.

    Anyone had any dealings with Mael Eòin Tactical at all? Placed an order 11 weeks ago but they've gone completely quiet on comms.

    Same.

    Thing is I got so bored of waiting and not hearing anything back that I bought basically the same thing (a pair of chest rig extension wings) direct from WTF in the US which were not only cheaper but arrived inside a couple of weeks.

    @DrAlexanderTobacco totally agree , there’s no excuse for poor or none existent comms , no matter how busy you are You can still take a few minutes at the start of the day to send a generic “sorry for the delay” email just to show the customer they haven’t  been forgotten . I once had a TM EBB with a tech guy for near 15mths while he was trying to find a part but every mth around the date I’d sent it to him I’d get the same update of “still looking” but I was happy with that as it showed I wasn’t forgotten  .

    shame that it's 3d printed.

    I'm staying away from printed kits, after seeing bent mk23 carbines because they've been left in a car trunk.

    Small parts are ok, but whole bodies? no thanks.

    I just bought one from PB for 75quid - was too good to resist - just hoping the delivery on Friday arrives after wife goes to work and not before :D

    Don't you just hate it when you're getting going on a good old VCRA/two tone rant on UKAC and the other bloke goes and deletes his comment.

    at the risk of getting into a row....

    The tiger stripe as I see it is not VCRA compliant

    it is more of a bending of the rule that some attempted to do

    to make their two tone more appealing/sell-able/profitable

    (it is flouting/breaching the VCRA for marketing purposes imho)

    But I may not be 101% correct

    I'll ask Mrs Duck - she is ALWAYS RIGHT

    200% invalid, I love the irony of that statement.

    All my statements on this site are ill informed, but I post them anyway because I'm too stupid too recognise my own stupidity

    S
    Sitting Duck
    200% invalid = the OP that posted the dumb statement

    plus one of his allies, both stating your argument is invalid

    ergo 200% invalid, or 300%+ if more sheep join the flock/group

    Me - I'm just a fucking idiot just like they say...

    but if they are losing to a fucking idiot, what does that make them

    ahhh but then they quote the classic quote:

    JduAWcteLwcIepJ5LVHNYI8C3UB_F-pdj28Wa25k02NCzk9sln8sC93Q7PNaJeoqyMLgEkkue_aYxz44drimrI5sYlnlBWDmrnA8W84APYUL9BvAApot1DBTt_SU1GIEpacQQK2WQwBmGmIzPX6S8UrG


    to which the response I might use:

    and you STILL engaged in argument after knowing this ???

    (just how fucking stupid you must be to still engage after knowing this)

    Ahh Ahh but you are still arguing...

    I've already admitted I'm an idiot - did you not see what I wrote

    (are you blind as well as dumb)

    personally with regards to SM bickering the more accurate quote is:

    I got kicked off FB ages ago

    it is amazing that remaining calm & civil actually infuriates people much more than calling them the c*nt you really wish to

    think I've mellowed - nah just getting older (and more stupid) by the day

    in this mad world of ours & lets face it 2020 is fucking mental so far

    let's try to remain a little calm if possible before it really kicks off

    We are in June atm, the first 5 months has been a bit of a horror show

    not trying to scare you but....

    The joys of importing - last week I received a small package from Violent Little Machine Shop in the US, just a few patches value £20. I get stung for £5 VAT and the usual £8 Royal Mail buttfuck. Today I get $82 worth of helmet cover from Agilite in Israel and nothing. No VAT, no duty no nothing. Both had CN22s attached with the correct value (no "gift" or comedy low value). What the actual fuck?

    I'm torn - I have a meeting in Poole on Friday and it's literally right opposite Zero One.

    S
    Sitting Duck
    a little "souvenir" from Poole can't hurt either

    (if the price is right)

    they do have the odd offer on now & then

    heck even JBBG had some 9mm blanks at a good price

    (before I switched to the 6mm 209 cheditte thingy's)

    So on that basis - have a butcher's, grab a bargain if you see one

    I would, tell yourself you are helping UK businesses

    (that excuse doesn't quite excuse buying from JambWow though - my bad)

    have a good meeting & a looksie

    HEY EVERYONE!

    Loz is going to Z1!

    Who needs anything? Save the postage costs! ?

    I have used Gunfire and their delivery was first class still takes 5 days though.

    Lozart
    Lozart
    I have used Gunfire too, but they've been piss poor of late.

    Anyone have or used an OPS Easy/Advanced/Integrated plate carrier? Looking for experience, I have their shooters belt in laser cut goodness but looking at PCs now!

    Awesome day at F&O The Base CQC yesterday! Got wet, realised my boots are NOT waterproof but was a good little site with a great bunch of guys! Highly recommend it!

    First time at South Coast CQB this weekend, anyone else been there? Anyone else going on Sunday?

    Lozart
    Lozart
    Pretty good actually. COuple of over complicated games but decent enough little site.

    I'll try and bang in a short review later.

    Jedi_Master
    Jedi_Master
    Great, the more reviews we get then the better informed the community will be about where to play.  Plus more reviews mean different perspective of a site both good and bad.  Was it a good day out?

    Lozart
    Lozart
    Yeah, pretty much. Usual bulletproof numpties but generally a good day out. Semi only all day so no support weapon opportunities (which is a shame because we could have done with one!) but yeah, I'll go back.
