  • Tried the CXP M.A.R.S out yesterday and wasn't to impressed with the flathop and .25's..after lunch I decided to dump all my mags and refill with .28's..WOW!! What a difference it made...going to try even heavier ones as well next time.  :)

    i tend to find flat hops to be a bit finnicky, sure they're perfect when they're set right, but a gnat's fart is the difference between too much and not enough.

    run mine with a prometheus purple bucking and nub on .28 bb's and find it shoots brilliantly

    Noob question.. 40mm Moscart 120rnd nade, is the o-ring which keeps the BB's from falling out actually 40mm? Or slightly smaller for a tighter fit.

    First paycheck always has to go on a good meal.

    Well just ordered a Firefly Flathop nub & Prommy Purple and will attempt my very fist 'flathop' in a few days.  The whole 'wiring to deans' went ok, so this is the next step.

    I'm also trying this over the weekend for the first time too - I'm using a madbull hop unit and I 60 degree Shark hop bucking. I'm going to do the DIY approach of using a rubber eraser as a hop nub and see how I get on. We should compare notes ?

    Yeh, I was thinking about just cutting up a rubber as well..but for me very first one I wanted to use official parts..lol  :)

    Not a bad idea at all - I'll be the one playing with a scalpel blade cutting up a small bit of rubber - first aid kit on standby! ?

    Is this strange behaviour?  I am sitting at my computer, watching youtube vids, whilst cradling my rifle.

    Not gonna lie, that's is pretty fucking weird.

    For a normal person.

    Carry on.

    No airsoft till July...I feel like something is missing from my life.  Damn this hobby!!

    I just went 12 weeks withtout a skirmish mate and it will probably be at least 2 weeks before I can afford to go again.

    Ugh...I have a meeting @ 11:30 in town today... I have two packages being delivered and guess what time they are scheduled for!!!  I'm only out for 30mins as well.

    It was dropped off down the local post office...so hopped, skipped & jumped my way there. (Went in car actually)  5.11 Multicam Combat top..  :)   :)   :)

    Another good day yesterday @ Kidderminster Airsoft (Paintball Park) their 3rd event and great to see them trying out new & different scenarios.  My new barrel/Bucking/Nub/Spring in the ICS seemed to be ok, but wasn't greatly impressed, but I guess it just needs a little tweaking...might try some .28's next time up from .25's.  Was hot & sunny, sweating like a mofo..but felt awesome!

    Was in JDAirsoft yesterday and played around with a ICS L85A2..my god it's a heavy beastie.

    I love it. Great for a bit of a workout whilst playing. But if you think thats heavy, lump around a gpmg or bren gun.

    lol...well my little ICS CQB is a heavy little sod, got lots of comments about it today...Why does it weigh so much? Where's the weight at?  I think ICS probably used IRON instead of Aluminium in there earlier guns..lol

    Well that was fun..changing the springs on both my Nuprol & ICS.  ICS Was simple, but small springs were a bitch.  Nuprol has the quick change out of the back of the mechbox..but my god I had to take the gun apart practically.  After many mistakes, managed to put everything back to working order..just need to get  a new spring tomorrow to go in the ICS to bring the FPS down, now i've extended the barrel.   I had fun!!!

    and now you know why i hate the v2 box.....

    and front wiring, because that just makes a pita job even harder for no good reason.

    You'll have gearbox removal down to ten minutes tops in no time mate :) dont sweat it.

    I think i shall be mostly "pew pew pew, pew pew" for the attacking games and "pewpewpewpewpewpewpewpewpewpewpewpewpewpewpewpewpewpew" for the defending games.

    Well, thats assuming the f2000 is working otherwise it'll just be the latter interspersed with terminator quotes

    Sunday I am going to tryout PaintballPark in Kidderminster for a Airsoft OpenDay...Irony is 20+ years ago I used to be a paintball marshal there. :)
