  1. Got them,but not used them for a while,worth another go...
  2. I may try squats but getting up from the ground is my biggest issue,it might be hard for me.
  3. Just ordered a turbo trainer,it's a start....thanks for all the help and advice.
  4. I understand the impact running can have and I swim like a brick but I did cycle regulary up until covid hit,about 3 or 4 days a week but regularity over distance,because I sold bikes I used to test ride them.Things pushed cycling to the back of my agenda,such as lockdown bikes sales (none for me to buy) and more importantly grandad duties.I have a lovely Cube sitting in my shed ,I keep saying to myself I must go out.As a retiree (early I may add ) I've found my self sitting on my arse too much but I am looking to get back into a job that involves leg work,I need that push to excercise more. Yes my GP about 2 1/2 years ago ,she said I'd virtually would need to crawl in before they would even consider any action and then I'd have to fill in a "lifestyle assesment form",then the same again for the other knee at a later date,it sounds a bit crap but she did explain it well and showed me the paperwork.Had Jabs--------> W🤪W,new knees for about a week,painkillers,etc.

    "Par for the cause" to tightbore all AEG's I thought,LOL..It's a Krytac and grouping is the only criticism I can levy,propably now because I can see where the bb's should be going...If I can get the grouping a tad tighter all is good.The life of an airsofter is blighted with trials.....
  6. I have the centre ones which I wear 2 or 3 days prior to playing and then the same after playing,seem to work for me but as they are a few years old I just ordered some replacements yesterday.I wear knee pads during playing for the exact same reason as you. I find the middle ones a bit uncomfortable for whole day use if i'm active,Perhaps they're worn out now),when I am recouperating they are spot on.

    It took about 5-7 clicks L-R to zero them,just lucky with that I guess.Opting for a tightbore now because I can see how the bb's are wandering off and I'd like to improve the grouping.

    Sights fitted and used yesterday,game changer IMO,well for me.BB's actually go where you want without having to guess,less bb's used and a lot more semi-auto.I've never used sights before.No guaging shot give away,Just wait for players to stick their's bod's out or fill a hole....great..LOL.
  9. Just in case anyone is interested or still reading..I tried some alternative knee supports with metal "hinges",God they were uncomfortable and the velcro was irritating.So I played yesterday and I slowed down a tad,today recovery seems better,then as agreed it's all about management because they are never going to get better.Thanks for all the advice.
  10. Looking at multi-chargers atm,but as I said it's not a bigeee,just trying to get efficent..oh no I'm an airsofter..forget that..😊 Thanks for the helpful advice all...
  11. @concretesnailthnaks,Just Googled it no good for me.But just in case if anyone else is curious you can only charge batteries of the same cell count(obvious) but also same capacity.I use 3 different battery sizes so no good.I'll look for an alternative,thanks.
  12. Is it worth investing in one of these?Any info or feedback is welcomed.How do you know when one battery is charged/balanced?Using with an Imax B6.Charging 4-6 batteries atm.If not worth it it's no biggeee,I never leave them unattended but they take time...Thanks.

    Thanks for all the advice,I opted for option 1 as there was no real reason not too,I was looking for massive negatives as well.
  15. Hydrating is an issue as you get older,I am a piss machine,I would constantly be in the bog/bushes.I get up early hours to piss,3 am usually when I should be asleep. I'm pretty active and 3 days prior to playing and days after I wear neoprene knee supports,they do ease the pain.I must get back on my bike asap.It's all about management I guess,thanks for all the advice I'll read up on programmes and treatments.🙂.
  16. Not sure where to post this or even to post at all,but it is related to "our" sport and again I'm asking for advice.I'm getting on now (I'm older than some forests) and am suffering heavily with arthritis in both knees,it relates from a well spent childhood,mx,etc.What I'd like to know is if anyone has any miracle cure or aid.I wear knee pads when I play and take a herbal remedy (as advised by another player) also I am currently trying DMSO.I did cycle regularly but haven't recently,that could be a contributing factor.So I can survive the day 1 or even 2 times a month but I suffer heavily afterwards taking upto 5 days to recover up until that time I walk like a cripple,getting up from floor level is embarrassing.When I get home I need to sort my kit immediatley before I sit down and seize up.I give it my all when I play because I intend to enjoy every time I play,my body says slow down but my mind says crack on.I could slow down but my style of play is aggressive at the front,I can't hang back.I appreciate any advice and thanks for reading.

    Thanks,I've used them on air rifles years ago,but with lower face pro I'm guessing I'll need riser rail.

    I'm looking to add red dot sights to my Krytac but am unsure which ones.I guess it's personal choice but any advice or mild banter would be appreciated.I've had some on other AEG's but never used them,as I'm getting older/slower I need to change something.From what I understand I have 3 choices as pictured,I like the first Tubular reflex with the high rise rail built in so if it comes down to personal choice it will be them.Any reasons to discount them and re-consider the others appreciated.Thanks.
  19. I bought a G&G Raider on Sunday becuse I sold my ICS "back-up" to my brother and was worried about not having a back-up....My ICS sat in a bag for months dormant..so I put the Raider up for sale...🤔

    I bought this yesterday on impulse(as airsofters do) when I sold my back-up to my brother.On reflection I don't really need a back-up,my ICS sat in it's bag dormant for months and this will do the same so I've decided to offer it for sale.It hasn't left the box yet or been tested,but I will test fire it before selling..I don't mind losing a bit so offers are welcome.The price includes and fees and postage,discount for postage will be given for collection.

    ICS CXP MARS Carbine 3S EBB.3 burst and diagnostic gearbox version.Bought during lockdown and hardly used.Some marks from use but as expected.Incredible consistency as shown,chronoed today with .25’s which equates to around 345 fps on .2’s.Unmolested apart from a mod to the stock to allow a bigger battery to be used,doesn’t affect use.Only selling as I just bought a Krytac and hate to see my guns laying dormant.Original box but nothing else supplied.Postage and all fees are included in the price,obviously collection or a meet will earn a discount.

  22. Yes it was a tournament for regulars (dare I say friends by association..) and a complete waste of time.As most if not all I would have preferred the time used playing.
  23. When I was a paintballer (🤔🤪) many moons ago we had an event where a ripper turned up at lunchtime,I don't think anyone was the least bit interested much to the distress of the organisers who'd arranged it for "us".I can understand it if it's a stag do.
  24. Shit my nana said she was at knitting club.....fine figure of a lady there.
  25. I prefer to do controlled burst with full auto but only because of the delay on 3 shot burst,I know the delay is minimal but it is there and during a game it is noticable.On the other hand my m8 loved it.
